Plugins
Overview
This section describes the io.Connect API domain and operation IDs, and the signature of the data
object each operation expects in order to be executed. Use this reference information to set the domain
, operation
and data
properties of the base control message object correctly when invoking io.Connect operations in your interception handlers.
An example invocation of an io.Connect operation:
// Settings for starting an instance of an app with a specified name.
const controlMessage = {
domain: "appManager",
operation: "applicationStart",
data: {
name: "My App Name"
}
};
// The `platform` object has already been passed as an argument to the Plugin implementation.
await platform.system.sendControl(controlMessage);
All io.Connect domains have an operation called "operationCheck"

}
};
// Checking whether the specified io.Connect operation is supported in the specified domain.
await platform.system.sendControl(controlMessage);
