Trait DaemonPlugin 

pub trait DaemonPlugin: Sized + 'static {
    // Required method
    fn activate(cx: &Context) -> Self;

    // Provided methods
    fn run(&self, cx: Context) -> impl Future<Output = ()> { ... }
    fn call(&self, method: &str, request: Json, cx: &Context) -> Result<Json> { ... }
    fn deactivate(&self) { ... }
}

A daemon (or companion) plugin.

Required Methods

fn activate(cx: &Context) -> Self

Called once after instantiation.

Provided Methods

fn run(&self, cx: Context) -> impl Future<Output = ()>

The plugin’s long-running work, started after activate and dropped at deactivate. Await Context::next_event for events and Context::sleep between rounds of work.

fn call(&self, method: &str, request: Json, cx: &Context) -> Result<Json>

Answers a call from the UI plugin with the same id. The default knows no method.

fn deactivate(&self)

Called before the instance is dropped, after the run loop is.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
