window

Esta página aún no está disponible en tu idioma.

Provides APIs to create windows, communicate with other windows and manipulate the current window.

Events can be listened to using Window.listen:

import { getCurrentWindow } from "@tauri-apps/api/window";
getCurrentWindow().listen("my-window-event", ({ event, payload }) => { });

This package is also accessible with window.__TAURI__.window when app.withGlobalTauri in tauri.conf.json is set to true.

core:window:default only enables the getters (sizes, positions, monitors, title, theme and the is* queries). Creating a window and every method that changes one needs its own permission, which each member documents, added to a capability in your app.

});
// call unlisten when your handler goes out of scope e.g. the component is unmounted

Parameter Type Description
event EventName Event name. Must include only alphanumeric characters, -, /, : and _.
handler EventCallback<T> Event handler.

Promise<UnlistenFn>

A promise resolving to a function to unlisten to the event.

import { getCurrentWindow } from '@tauri-apps/api/window';
const unlisten = await getCurrentWindow().once<null>('initialized', (event) => {
console.log(`Window initialized!`);
});
// call unlisten when your handler goes out of scope e.g. the component is unmounted
unlisten();

The listener removes itself after the first event and is also removed automatically when this window is destroyed. Do call the returned function if the listener’s own scope ends before the event arrives.

onCloseRequested(handler): Promise<UnlistenFn>;

Source: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/blob/dev/packages/api/src/window.ts#L2365

Listen to window close requested. Emitted when the user requests to closes the window.

Parameter Type

const unlisten = await getCurrentWindow().onCloseRequested(async (event) => {
const confirmed = await confirm('Are you sure?');
if (!confirmed) {
// user did not confirm closing the window; let's prevent it
event.preventDefault();
}
});
// call unlisten when your handler goes out of scope e.g. the component is unmounted
unlisten();

The listener is removed automatically when this window is destroyed, so you do not need to unlisten just because the window is closing. Do call the returned function when the listener’s own scope ends, e.g. on page navigation or when a component unmounts.

onDragDropEvent(handler): Promise<UnlistenFn>;

Source: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/blob/dev/packages/api/src/window.ts#L2407

Promise<UnlistenFn>

A promise resolving to a function to unlisten to the event.

import { getCurrentWindow } from "@tauri-apps/api/window";

function cursorPosition(): Promise<PhysicalPosition>;

Source: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/blob/dev/packages/api/src/window.ts#L3179

Get the cursor position relative to the top-left hand corner of the desktop.

Note that the top-left hand corner of the desktop is not necessarily the same as the screen. If the user uses a desktop with multiple monitors, the top-left hand corner of the desktop is the top-left hand corner of the main monitor on Windows and macOS or the top-left of the leftmost monitor on X11.

The coordinates can be negative if the top-left hand corner of the window is outside of the visible screen region.

Promise<PhysicalPosition>

The cursor position, in physical pixels.

import { cursorPosition } from '@tauri-apps/api/window';
const position = await cursorPosition();
console.log(position.x, position.y);
