Services

AppService

The AppService should be initialized by the application's main app.module to set up the API root and application version number. You can then use this service to get...

• the API root
• the application version number
• the server-type we're running on (prod / dev / localhost)

AuthService

The AuthService is used to

• Set Authorization headers for HTTP requests
• Update the token information stored in the session storage
• Determine if the user has a token
• Determine if the user has a is logged in with a valid token (i.e. the token has not expired)

IFrameManagerService

The IFrameManagerService is a simple manager to open/close iFrames and handle communication between parent/child iFrames. It is used to more closely mimic Oracle Forms by opening directly on top of a parent app instead of in a child window/tab. Default settings open the iFrame at 100vw and 100vh.

PrintManagerService

The PrintManagerService works with PrintManagerComponent to handle printing to an Oracle print server

• RxJS Subjects are used to communicate between the PrintManagerComponent and page/component that is requesting the print

RunModeService

The RunModeService is used to determine if the application is running as its own application, or if it is running as the child of another application

StorageManagerService

The StorageManagerService is a simple web storage manager to work with multiple apps under the same domain.

• The manager will use local / session storage if available.
• Otherwise, it will revert to using cookies.

TokenManagerService

Use the TokenManagerService to maintain a token

• Tokens expire every 60 minutes on the Java server
• This service refreshes tokens at 20 minute intervals to ensure it never expires (The 20 minute interval matches the inactivity timeout interval)
• Tokens are only maintained (updated) when the app is running in standalone mode (Child windows always use the token from the parent window)

ToolsService

The ToolsService is used to display generic alerts or application error alerts. It can also be used to handle subscriber errors to return a default value

WindowManagerService

The WindowManagerService is a simple manager to open/close windows and handle communication between parent/child windows
