The following methods and properties can be included in your custom application or web page:
SDK Specifications
Init
The init
method is optional. It returns the IRobotSDK
instance, which enables you to store it as a variable for later use.
UiPathRobot.init()
Get Process
The Get Process
method retrieves and displays the list of available processes. If the Robot is connected to Orchestrator, it retrieves the processes from the environment and folder the Robot is a part of. If it's not connected to Orchestrator, local processes are displayed.
const robot = UiPathRobot.init();
robot.getProcess()
.then(result => {
for(let i=0; i<result.length;i++){
console.log(result[i].name);
}
}, err => {
console.log(err);
});
On
The On
method is used to attach event handlers on the SDK. The UiPath JavaScript SDK comes with a built-in consent overlay displayed every time your custom application or web page needs to connect to the Robot. This consent overlay can be overridden with a custom handler.
const robot = UiPathRobot.init();
robot.on('consent-prompt', (consentCode) => {console.log(consentCode)});
robot.on('mising-components', () => {console.log('Missing Components')});
Process Start
The Process Start
method is used to start a process by passing it input arguments, if available.
let arguments = {
"input1" : 23,
"input2" " 42,
"operation" : "add"
};
const robot = UiPathRobot.init();
robot.getProcess()
.then(process => {
let process = processes.find(p => p.name.includes('Calculator'));
process.start(arguments).then(result => {
console.log(result.Sum);
}, err => {
console.log(err);
})
}, err => {
console.log(err);
});
Process Start On Status
The Process Start On Status
method is used to start a process and attach the status callback by passing the callback handler.
let arguments = {
"input1" : 23,
"input2" " 42,
"operation" : "add"
};
let globalHandler = (status) => {console.log(status)};
const robot = UiPathRobot.init();
robot.getProcesses()
.then(processes => {
let statusHandler = (status) => {console.log('Calculator Process Status -' + status)};
let process = processes.find(p => p.name.includes('Calculator'));
process.start(arguments)
.onStatus(globalHandler)
.onStatus(statusHandler)
.then(result => {
console.log(result.Sum);
}, err => {
console.log(err);
})
}, err => {
console.log(err);
});
Job On
The Job On
method is used to attach an event handler to retrieve on going process statuses.
let arguments = {
"input1" : 23,
"input2" " 42,
"operation" : "add"
};
const robot = UiPathRobot.init();
robot.getProcesses().then(processes => {
let calculatorProcess = processes.find(p => p.name.includes('Calculator'));
let job =new job(calculatorProcess.id, arguments);
job.on('status', (robotStatus) => {console.log(robotStatus)});
robot.startJob(job).then(result => {
console.log(result.Sum);
}, err => {
console.log(err);
})
}, err => {
console.log(err);
});
Settings
The Settings
method allows you to edit the default port number and poll interval time in milliseconds.
const robot = UiPathRobot.init();
robot.settings.portNumber = 1234;
robot.settings.pollTimeInterval = 1000
Model Definitions
Settings
class Settings {
portNumber: number;
pollTimeInterval: number;
}
RobotProcess
class RobotProcess {
id: string;
name: string;
constructor(id: string, name: string);
start: (inArguments?: any) => JobPromise;
}
IRobotSDK
interface IRobotSDK {
settings: Settings;
getProcesses(): Promise<Array<RobotProcess>>;
init(): IRobotSDK;
on(eventName: string, callback: (argument?: any) => void): void;
startJob(job: Job): Promise<JobResult>;
}
JobResult
// Job result model containing all output arguments from the process.
// Empty if there are no out arguments.
class JobResult {
[Key: string]: any;
}
Job
class Job {
processId: string;
argument?: any;
jobId: string;
constructor(processId: string, argument?: any);
on(eventName: string, eventHanlder: (argument?: any) => void): void;
}
