Android - Method Module Interface

note

To call a MethodModule, a Tecton Caliper extension is required. Please refer to the Caliper guides to get started.

The MethodModule interface is used when you need to run logic natively without requiring any UI elements. It also allows you to trigger a callback, returning data back to the Tecton side.

Implementation​

To implement a MethodModule:

  1. Create a class and inherit from ModuleMethod.
  2. Define a function to handle your desired logic.
  3. Once the operation is complete, trigger the MethodModule.MethodModuleCallback to return the result.
Sample MethodModule Implementation
class TestMethodModule(private val sdkUtils: SdkUtils): MethodModule {

    fun testMethod(context: Context, data: String, callback: MethodModule.MethodModuleCallback) {
        // Once you are done, trigger the callback and send back the data you want.
        callback.returnValue(data)
    }
}

Triggering From Tecton​

To call your MethodModule, follow the Tecton - callModule guide.

Update Your settings.json​

Ensure your settings.json file in the root of the DevApp is updated to reflect your module changes. Learn more in Configuring settings.json.
