Page Life Cycle: Overview - akumina/AkuminaTraining GitHub Wiki

Applies to

Akumina Foundation 3.3.0.0 and later

Overview

The Page Life Cycle is a series of steps that are executed when a user navigates to a page. Steps call a function that can do anything from getting data, populating markup, provide “Loading…” feedback to the user, and updating the User and Configuration Contexts. Step functions have the following structure:

function MyCustomStep() {
    //perform step functionality

    //the framework will not go to the next step until you fire this event, so you can get data from an endpoint if needed
    Akumina.Digispace.AppPart.Eventing.Publish('/loader/onexecuted/');

}

Context Objects

Steps within the page life cycle can retrieve and update information within the Akumina.Digispace.ConfigurationContext and Akumina.Digispace.UserContext objects.
