Examples

Example 1: Following code launches an app/desktop in a new window (similar to the session launch using Workspace app for Chrome).

//Use appropriate citrix receiver id. This sample uses store version.
// EAR = lbfgjakkeeccemhonnolnmglmfmccaag , store version = haiffjcadagjlijoggckpgfnoeiflnem
var citrixReceiverId = "haiffjcadagjlijoggckpgfnoeiflnem";

try{
    var connectionParams = {
        "launchType" : "message"
    };

    function sessionCreated(sessionObject){
        //Handle session interactions like events, start, disconnect here.
        // Adding onConnection event handler
        function connectionHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onConnection",connectionHandler);

        // Adding onConnectionClosed event handler
        function connectionClosedHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onConnectionClosed",connectionClosedHandler);

        // Adding onError event handler
        function onErrorHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onError",onErrorHandler);

        //Adding onURLRedirection event handler
        function onURLRedirectionHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onURLRedirection",onURLRedirectionHandler);
    }

    citrix.receiver.createSession(citrixReceiverId,connectionParams,sessionCreated);
}catch(ex){
    console.log(ex);
}

Example 2: Following code launches an app/desktop in an appview element inside third party Chrome app.

function createAppview() {
    if (!appView) {
        appView = document.createElement("appview");
        appView.id = "appView";
        // Appends the element to the document body.
        document.body.appendChild(appView);

        // Sample code for setting appview properties. Modify as needed.
        appView.style.width = "800px";
        appView.style.height = "800px";
        appView.style.left = "0px";
        appView.style.top = "100px";
        appView.style.position = "absolute";
    } else {
        appView.style.display = "block";
    }
}

//Use appropriate citrix receiver id. This sample uses store version.
// EAR = lbfgjakkeeccemhonnolnmglmfmccaag , store version = haiffjcadagjlijoggckpgfnoeiflnem
var citrixReceiverId = "haiffjcadagjlijoggckpgfnoeiflnem";

try{
    createAppview();
    var connectionParams = {
        "launchType" : "embed",
        "container": appView
    };

    function sessionCreated(sessionObject){
        //Handle session interactions like events, start, disconnect here.
        // Adding onConnection event handler
        function connectionHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onConnection",connectionHandler);

        // Adding onConnectionClosed event handler
        function connectionClosedHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onConnectionClosed",connectionClosedHandler);

        // Adding onError event handler
        function onErrorHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onError",onErrorHandler);

        //Adding onURLRedirection event handler
        function onURLRedirectionHandler(event){
            console.log("Event Received : " + event.type);
            console.log(event.data);
        }
        sessionObject.addListener("onURLRedirection",onURLRedirectionHandler);
    }

    citrix.receiver.createSession(citrixReceiverId,connectionParams,sessionCreated);
}catch(ex){
    console.log(ex);
