1# Subscribing to Common Events in Static Mode (for System Applications Only)
2
3## When to Use
4
5A static subscriber is started once it receives a target event published by the system or application. At the same time, [onReceiveEvent()](../../reference/apis-basic-services-kit/js-apis-application-staticSubscriberExtensionAbility-sys.md#staticsubscriberextensionabilityonreceiveevent) is triggered, in which you can implement the service logic.<br>
6
7For example, if an application needs to execute some initialization tasks during device power-on, the application can subscribe to the power-on event in static mode. After receiving the power-on event, the application is started to execute the initialization tasks.
8
9Subscribing to a common event in static mode is achieved by configuring a declaration file and implementing a class that inherits from [StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility](../../reference/apis-basic-services-kit/js-apis-application-staticSubscriberExtensionAbility-sys.md).
10
11> **NOTE**
12>
13> Static subscription to common events affects system power consumption. Therefore, exercise caution when using this function.
14
15## Lifecycle
16
17The [StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility](../../reference/apis-basic-services-kit/js-apis-application-staticSubscriberExtensionAbility-sys.md) module is destroyed 15 seconds after [`onReceiveEvent()`](../../reference/apis-basic-services-kit/js-apis-application-staticSubscriberExtensionAbility-sys.md#staticsubscriberextensionabilityonreceiveevent) is executed.
18
19## How to Develop
20
211. Declare a static subscriber.
22
23   Create an ExtensionAbility inherited from [StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility](../../reference/apis-basic-services-kit/js-apis-application-staticSubscriberExtensionAbility-sys.md) in the project.
24
25   You can implement service logic using [onReceiveEvent()](../../reference/apis-basic-services-kit/js-apis-application-staticSubscriberExtensionAbility-sys.md#staticsubscriberextensionabilityonreceiveevent).
26
27   ```ts
28   import { commonEventManager, StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility } from '@kit.BasicServicesKit';
29   import { hilog } from '@kit.PerformanceAnalysisKit';
30
31   const TAG: string = 'StaticSubscriber';
32   const DOMAIN_NUMBER: number = 0xFF00;
33
34   export default class StaticSubscriber extends StaticSubscriberExtensionAbility {
35     onReceiveEvent(event: commonEventManager.CommonEventData): void {
36       hilog.info(DOMAIN_NUMBER, TAG, 'onReceiveEvent, event: ' + event.event);
37       //...
38     }
39   }
40   ```
41
422. Configure static subscriber settings.
43
44   After writing the static subscriber code, configure the subscriber in the [module.json5](../../quick-start/module-configuration-file.md) file.
45
46   ```json
47   {
48     "module": {
49   	// ...
50       "extensionAbilities": [
51         {
52           "name": "StaticSubscriber",
53           "srcEntry": "./ets/staticsubscriber/StaticSubscriber.ets",
54           "description": "$string:StaticSubscriber_desc",
55           "icon": "$media:app_icon",
56           "label": "$string:StaticSubscriber_label",
57           "type": "staticSubscriber",
58           "exported": false,
59           "metadata": [
60             {
61               "name": "ohos.extension.staticSubscriber",
62               "resource": "$profile:subscribe"
63             }
64           ]
65         }
66       ],
67   	// ...
68     }
69   }
70   ```
71
72   Some fields in the file are described as follows:
73
74   - **srcEntry**: entry file path of the ExtensionAbility, that is, the file path of the static subscriber declared in Step 2.
75
76   - **type**: ExtensionAbility type. For a static subscriber, set this field to **staticSubscriber**.
77
78   - **metadata**: level-2 configuration file information of the ExtensionAbility. The configuration information varies according to the ExtensionAbility type. Therefore, you must use different config files to indicate the specific configuration.
79        - **name**: name of the ExtensionAbility. For a static subscriber, declare the name as **ohos.extension.staticSubscriber** for successful identification.
80        - **resource**: path that stores the ExtensionAbility configuration, which is customizable. In this example, the path is **resources/base/profile/subscribe.json**.
81
82
833. Configure the level-2 configuration file **subscribe.json** to which the metadata points.
84
85   > **NOTE**
86   >
87   > If the level-2 configuration file is not declared in this format, the file cannot be identified.

89   ```json
90   {
91     "commonEvents": [
92       {
93         "name": "StaticSubscriber",
94         "permission": "",
95         "events": [
96           "usual.event.AIRPLANE_MODE"
97         ],
98         "filter": [
99           {
100             "event": "usual.event.AIRPLANE_MODE",
101             "conditions": {
102               "code": 0,
103               "data": "send common event data",
104               "parameters": {
105                 "bundleType": 1,
106                 "userId": 100
107               }
108             }
109           }
110         ]
111       }
112     ]
113   }
114   ```
115
116   The **commonEvents** tag identifies a static subscription event configured by a subscriber. Lightweight devices do not support this tag and its subtags. The tag value is of an object array and contains four subtags: **name**, **permission**, **events**, and **filter**.
117
118   **Table 1** commonEvents
119
120   | **Name**| **Description**                                                    | **Data Type**| **Initial Value Allowed**            |
121   | ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------ | -------------------------- |
122   | name         | Name of the ExtensionAbility, which must be the same as the name of **extensionAbility** declared in **module.json5**.| String      | No          |
123   | permission   | Permissions required by the publisher.                      | String      | Yes (initial value: left empty)|

126
127   The **filter** tag identifies the static subscription events that can be filtered by the subscriber as required. The tag value is of the object array type and contains two subtags: **event** and **conditions**.
128
129   **Table 2** filter
130
131   | **Name**| **Description**                                                    | **Data Type**| **Initial Value Allowed**  |
132   | ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------ | ---------------- |
133   | event        | Name of the event to be filtered out for static subscription events. The event name should match with the event list; otherwise, the configuration is invalid.| String      | No|
134   | conditions   | Filter criteria of an event, which is obtained from [CommonEventPublishData](../../reference/apis-basic-services-kit/js-apis-inner-commonEvent-commonEventPublishData.md#commoneventpublishdata).| Object        | No|
135
136   The **conditions** tag identifies the condition configuration for filtering static subscription events. The tag value is of the object type and contains three subtags: **code**, **data**, and **parameters**.
137

1474. Modify the [preset configuration file](https://gitee.com/openharmony/vendor_hihope/blob/master/rk3568/preinstall-config/install_list_capability.json) of the device, that is, the **/system/variant/phone/base/etc/app/install_list_capability.json** file. When the device is started, this file is read. During application installation, the common event type specified by **allowCommonEvent** in the file is authorized. The **install_list_capability.json** file contains the following fields:
148
149   - **bundleName**: bundle name of the application.
150   - **app_signature**: fingerprint information of the application. For details about how to configure fingerprint information, see [Application Privilege Configuration](../../../device-dev/subsystems/subsys-app-privilege-config-guide.md#configuration-in-install_list_capabilityjson), or obtain and enter the application ID using [Bundle Manager](../../tools/bm-tool.md).
151   - **allowCommonEvent**: type of common event that can be started by static broadcast.
152
153   ```json
154   [
155     // ...
156     {
157       "bundleName": "com.samples.stageprocessthread", // Bundle name.
158       "app_signature": ["****"], // Fingerprint information.
159       "allowCommonEvent": ["usual.event.AIRPLANE_MODE"] // Type of common event that can be started by static broadcast.
160     }
161   ]
162   ```
