AppMetadata
interface AppMetadata {
name: string;
appId?: string;
version?: string;
title?: string;
tooltip?: string;
description?: string;
icons?: Array<string>;
images?: Array<string>;
}
App metadata is provided by the FDC3 App Directory that the desktop agent connects to.
It always includes at least a name property, which can be used with open and raiseIntent.
Optionally, extra information from the app directory can be returned, to aid in rendering UI elements, e.g. a context menu. This includes a title, description, tooltip and icon and image URLs.
In situations where a desktop agent connects to multiple app directories or multiple versions of the same app exists in a single app directory, it may be neccessary to specify appId and version to target applications that share the same name.
