How to send messages between addons?

Post by blk » Thu May 06, 2021 2:24 am

Hi,

Is there an official way via the API to send messages between 2 different addons? I'm trying to avoid TCP calls as I'm using the Simplified API.

Thanks,

Hi,
Yes, just use Layer1ApiUserInterModuleMessage. Send it down the stack, then catch it when it goes back up. You just need to subscribe to core API as Layer1ApiAdminListener using Api#getProvider#addListener

Hi, for Core API you may implement the MessageListener interface to receive messages.
