context

pentaho.context

The context namespace contains types that allow access to environmental information of the Pentaho Platform.

Overview

The IContext interface is the top interface that represents the environment. Part of its information is described by the contained IServer and IUser interfaces.

pentaho.context.main is the main environment instance of the Pentaho Platform. Secondary environments can be derived from the main environment, by using its IContext#createChild method.

The specification classes, in the pentaho.context.spec namespace, expose the raw environmental data in plain JavaScript objects or JSON format. These can be used in IContext#createChild or result from IContext#toSpec.
