Interface ActionHandler


  • public interface ActionHandler
    Defines a handler for an inter-SDK action, such as one SDK starting another one, without either SDK having a dependency on the other. An example of this would be a hypothetical Help Center SDK starting the "create ticket" screen of the Support SDK. In order to properly separate SDKs from each other, handlers will work on "action Strings". Similar to Android's Intent system, multiple SDKs can be capable of handling the same action String. For example, a "contact us" action can be handled by Support, Chat, Voice, Message, etc. In the event that more than one ActionHandler has been registered for the same actionString, the getPriority() method can be used to determine which one to call handle on.
