It currently allows a caller to * send a message to a single listener, and receive a reply. If there * are no matching listeners, or the message manager disconnects before * a reply is received, the caller is returned an error. * * The listener end may specify filters for the messages it wishes to * receive, and the sender end likewise may specify recipient tags to * match the filters. * * The message handler on the listener side may return its response * value directly, or may return a promise, the resolution or rejection * of which will be returned instead. The sender end likewise receives a * promise which resolves or rejects to the listener's response. * * * A basic setup works something like this: * * A content script adds a message listener to its global * nsIContentFrameMessageManager, with an appropriate set of filters: * * { * init(messageManager, window, extensionID) { * this.window = window; * * MessageChannel.addListener( * messageManager, "ContentScript:TouchContent", * this); * * this.messageFilterStrict = { * innerWindowID: getInnerWindowID(window), * extensionID: extensionID, * }; * * this.messageFilterPermissive = { * outerWindowID: getOuterWindowID(window), * }; * }, * * receiveMessage({ target, messageName, sender, recipient, data }) { * if (messageName == "ContentScript:TouchContent") { * return new Promise(resolve => { * this.touchWindow(data.touchWith, result => { * resolve({ touchResult: result }); * }); * }); * } * }, * }; * * A script in the parent process sends a message to the content process * via a tab message manager, including recipient tags to match its * filter, and an optional sender tag to identify itself: * * let data = { touchWith: "pencil" }; * let sender = { extensionID, contextID }; * let recipient = { innerWindowID: tab.linkedBrowser.innerWindowID, extensionID }; * * MessageChannel.sendMessage( * tab.linkedBrowser.messageManager, "ContentScript:TouchContent", * data, {recipient, sender} * ).then(result => { * alert(result.touchResult); * }); * * Since the lifetimes of message senders and receivers may not always * match, either side of the message channel may cancel pending * responses which match its sender or recipient tags. * * For the above client, this might be done from an * inner-window-destroyed observer, when its target scope is destroyed: * * observe(subject, topic, data) { * if (topic == "inner-window-destroyed") { * let innerWindowID = subject.QueryInterface(Ci.nsISupportsPRUint64).data; * * MessageChannel.abortResponses({ innerWindowID }); * } * }, * * From the parent, it may be done when its context is being destroyed: * * onDestroy() { * MessageChannel.abortResponses({ * extensionID: this.extensionID, * contextID: this.contextID, * }); * }, * */ this.EXPORTED_SYMBOLS = ["MessageChannel"]; /* globals MessageChannel */ const Ci = Components.interfaces; const Cc = Components.classes; const Cu = Components.utils; const Cr = Components.results; Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/XPCOMUtils.jsm"); Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm"); XPCOMUtils.defineLazyModuleGetter(this, "ExtensionUtils", "resource://gre/modules/ExtensionUtils.jsm"); XPCOMUtils.defineLazyModuleGetter(this, "PromiseUtils", "resource://gre/modules/PromiseUtils.jsm"); XPCOMUtils.defineLazyModuleGetter(this, "Task", "resource://gre/modules/Task.jsm"); XPCOMUtils.defineLazyGetter(this, "MessageManagerProxy", () => ExtensionUtils.MessageManagerProxy); /** * Handles the mapping and dispatching of messages to their registered * handlers.
