Class _WindowModule

Provides access to the OpenFin representation of the current code context (usually a document such as a View or Window), as well as to the current Interop context.

Useful for debugging in the devtools console, where this will intelligently type itself based on the context in which the devtools panel was opened.

Creates a new Window.

Example

async function createWindow() {
    const winOption = {
        name:'child',
        defaultWidth: 300,
        defaultHeight: 300,
        url: 'https://cdn.openfin.co/docs/javascript/stable/tutorial-Window.create.html',
        frame: true,
        autoShow: true
    };
    return await fin.Window.create(winOption);
}

createWindow().then(() => console.log('Window is created')).catch(err => console.log(err));
Copy

Asynchronously returns a Window object that represents the current window

Example

fin.Window.getCurrent()
.then(wnd => console.log('current window'))
.catch(err => console.log(err));

Copy

Synchronously returns a Window object that represents the current window

Example

const wnd = fin.Window.getCurrentSync();
const info = await wnd.getInfo();
console.log(info);

Copy

Asynchronously returns a Window object that represents an existing window.

Example

async function createWin() {
    const app = await fin.Application.start({
        name: 'myApp',
        uuid: 'app-1',
        url: 'https://cdn.openfin.co/docs/javascript/stable/tutorial-Window.wrap.html',
        autoShow: true
    });
    return await app.getWindow();
}
createWin().then(() => fin.Window.wrap({ uuid: 'app-1', name: 'myApp' }))
.then(win => console.log('wrapped window'))
.catch(err => console.log(err));
Copy

Synchronously returns a Window object that represents an existing window.

Example

async function createWin() {
    const app = await fin.Application.start({
        name: 'myApp',
        uuid: 'app-1',
        url: 'https://cdn.openfin.co/docs/javascript/stable/tutorial-Window.wrapSync.html',
        autoShow: true
    });
    return await app.getWindow();
}
await createWin();
let win = fin.Window.wrapSync({ uuid: 'app-1', name: 'myApp' });
