# **DeviceManager**

## Introduction

DeviceManager supports authentication and networking for account-independent distributed devices. It provides a set of APIs for listening, discovery, and authentication of distributed devices.

The figure below shows the architecture and dependencies of DeviceManager:

## Constraints

- Programming languages: JS and C++
- Applicable devices: OpenHarmony devices such as the Hi3516D V300 development board


## Available APIs

Currently, DeviceManager does not support permission management. Its system APIs can be called only by system applications. In later versions, strict permission control will be implemented.
For details about the APIs, see *ohos.distributedHardware.deviceManager.d.ts* in [**interface_sdk-js repository**](https://gitee.com/openharmony/interface_sdk-js/).

- Public APIs

  Before using APIs in **DeviceManager**, call **createDeviceManager** to create a **DeviceManager** instance.

  If you no longer need to use the APIs, release the **DeviceManager** instance.

| Prototype                                                        | Description                           |
| ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------- |
| createDeviceManager(bundleName: string, callback: AsyncCallback<DeviceManager>): void; | Obtains a **DeviceManager** instance in asynchronous mode.|
| release(): void;                                             | Releases a **DeviceManager** instance.          |


- System APIs

  DeviceManager provides APIs related to trusted device list obtaining, device state listening, device discovery, and device authentication. These APIs are system APIs and can be invoked only by system applications.

  The APIs for starting and stopping device discovery must be used in pairs, with the same subscribe ID.

| Prototype                                                        | Description                |
| ------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------- |
| getTrustedDeviceListSync(): Array<DeviceInfo>;                                                                                            | Obtains the trusted device list.|
| on(type: 'deviceStateChange', callback: Callback<{ action: DeviceStateChangeAction, device: DeviceInfo }>): void;                         | Subscribes to device state changes.|
| off(type: 'deviceStateChange', callback?: Callback<{ action: DeviceStateChangeAction, device: DeviceInfo }>): void;                       | Unsubscribes from device state changes.|
| on(type: 'serviceDie', callback: () => void): void;                                                                                       | Subscribes to device errors.|
| off(type: 'serviceDie', callback?: () => void): void;                                                                                     | Unsubscribes from service errors.|
| startDeviceDiscovery(subscribeInfo: SubscribeInfo): void;    | Starts device discovery.        |
| stopDeviceDiscovery(subscribeId: number): void;              | Stops device discovery.        |
| authenticateDevice(deviceInfo: DeviceInfo, authparam: AuthParam, callback: AsyncCallback<{deviceId: string, pinTone ?: number}>): void; | Authenticates a device.        |
| setUserOperation(operateAction: number, params: string): void;    | Set user ui operation behavior         |
| verifyAuthInfo(authInfo: AuthInfo, callback: AsyncCallback<{deviceId: string, level: number}>): void; | Verifies device authentication information.    |
| on(type: 'deviceFound', callback: Callback<{ subscribeId: number, device: DeviceInfo }>): void; | Subscribes to discovered device list changes.    |
| off(type: 'deviceFound', callback?: Callback<{ subscribeId: number, device: DeviceInfo }>): void; | Unsubscribes from discovered device list changes.|
| on(type: 'discoverFail', callback: Callback<{ subscribeId: number, reason: number }>): void; | Subscribes to device discovery failures.    |
| off(type: 'discoverFail', callback?: Callback<{ subscribeId: number, reason: number }>): void; | Unsubscribes from device discovery failures.|
| on(type: 'publishSuccess', callback: Callback<{ publishId: number }>): void; | publish device success     |
| off(type: 'publishSuccess', callback?: Callback<{ publishId: number }>): void; | delete unpublish device success |
| on(type: 'publishFail', callback: Callback<{ publishId: number, reason: number }>): void; | publish device fail     |
| off(type: 'publishFail', callback?: Callback<{ publishId: number, reason: number }>): void; | delete unpublish device fail |
| on(type: 'uiStateChange', callback: Callback<{ param: string}>): void; | UI status change callback     |
| off(type: 'uiStateChange', callback?: Callback<{ param: string}>): void; | Cancel UI status change callback     |

## System Dialog Box ServiceExtensionAbility

Only PIN authentication is supported in the current version. To support PIN authentication, an authorization prompt page, a PIN display page, and a PIN input page must be provided.

Currently, the system does not support the dialog box display through the native layer. Therefore, a temporary ServiceExtensionAbility is used to display a dialog box.

This ServiceExtensionAbility is called **DeviceManager_UI.hap**, which is preset as a system application.

- Compilation and running

  Import the **device_manager/display** project to DevEco Studio 2.2 Beta1. Copy the **@ohos.distributedHardware.deviceManager.d.ts** file in the **display** directory to the **Sdk\js\2.2.0.1\api\common** directory for compilation, building, and debugging.

- Compilation environment: IDE 2.2 SDK6

- Storage location of **DeviceManager_UI.hap** demo: [device_manager repository](https://gitee.com/openharmony/distributedhardware_device_manager/tree/master/display)

- UI display

  When DeviceManager functions as the authenticated party, the authorization prompt page and PIN display page are controlled by the **DeviceManager_UI.hap** ServiceExtensionAbility by default.

  When DeviceManager functions as the authentication initiator, the PIN input page can be displayed either by **DeviceManager_UI.hap** ServiceExtensionAbility or a developer-customized page. To customize the PIN input page, set the **displayOwner** parameter in the **extraInfo** attribute of the **AuthParam** parameter of the **authenticateDevice** API to **1**.
