The Host’s view of the Container and its connection to storage

Signature

export interface IContainer extends IEventProvider<IContainerEvents>, IFluidRouter

Extends: IEventProvider<IContainerEvents >, IFluidRouter

Properties

Methods

Property Details

attachState

Indicates the attachment state of the container to a host service.

Signature

readonly attachState: AttachState;

Type: AttachState

audience

The audience information for all clients currently associated with the document in the current session

Signature

readonly audience: IAudience;

Type: IAudience

closed

Returns true if the container has been closed, otherwise false

Signature

readonly closed: boolean;

Type: boolean

connectionState

Provides the current state of the container’s connection to the ordering service

Signature

readonly connectionState: ConnectionState;

Type: ConnectionState

deltaManager

The Delta Manager supporting the op stream for this Container

Signature

deltaManager: IDeltaManager<ISequencedDocumentMessage, IDocumentMessage>;

Type: IDeltaManager <ISequencedDocumentMessage , IDocumentMessage >

isDirty

Returns true if the container is dirty, i.e. there are user changes that has not been saved Closing container in this state results in data loss for user. Container usually gets into this situation due to loss of connectivity.

Signature

readonly isDirty: boolean;

Type: boolean

readOnlyInfo

Tells if container is in read-only mode. Data stores should listen for “readonly” notifications and disallow user making changes to data stores. Readonly state can be because of no storage write permission, or due to host forcing readonly mode for container.

We do not differentiate here between no write access to storage vs. host disallowing changes to container - in all cases container runtime and data stores should respect readonly state and not allow local changes.

It is undefined if we have not yet established websocket connection and do not know if user has write access to a file.

Signature

readonly readOnlyInfo: ReadOnlyInfo;

Type: ReadOnlyInfo

resolvedUrl

Represents the resolved url to the Container Will be undefined only when the container is in the detatched state.

Signature

resolvedUrl: IResolvedUrl | undefined;

Type: IResolvedUrl | undefined

Method Details

attach

Attaches the Container to the Container specified by the given Request.

Signature

connect(): void;

disconnect
