Resource

A rust-backed resource stored through tauri::Manager::resources_table API.

The resource lives in the main process and does not exist in the Javascript world, and thus will not be cleaned up automatiacally except on application exit. If you want to clean it up early, call Resource.close

Example

import { Resource, invoke } from '@tauri-apps/api/core';
export class DatabaseHandle extends Resource {
  static async open(path: string): Promise<DatabaseHandle> {
    const rid: number = await invoke('open_db', { path });
    return new DatabaseHandle(rid);
  }

  async execute(sql: string): Promise<void> {
    await invoke('execute_sql', { rid: this.rid, sql });
  }
}

convertFileSrc()

function convertFileSrc(filePath, protocol): string

Convert a device file path to an URL that can be loaded by the webview. Note that asset: and http://asset.localhost must be added to app.security.csp in tauri.conf.json. Example CSP value: "csp": "default-src 'self' ipc: http://ipc.localhost; img-src 'self' asset: http://asset.localhost" to use the asset protocol on image sources.

Additionally, "enable" : "true" must be added to app.security.assetProtocol in tauri.conf.json and its access scope must be defined on the scope array on the same assetProtocol object.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default value	Description
filePath	string	undefined	The file path.
protocol	string	'asset'	The protocol to use. Defaults to asset. You only need to set this when using a custom protocol.

Returns

string

the URL that can be used as source on the webview.

Example

import { appDataDir, join } from '@tauri-apps/api/path';
import { convertFileSrc } from '@tauri-apps/api/core';
const appDataDirPath = await appDataDir();
const filePath = await join(appDataDirPath, 'assets/video.mp4');
const assetUrl = convertFileSrc(filePath);

const video = document.getElementById('my-video');
const source = document.createElement('source');
source.type = 'video/mp4';
source.src = assetUrl;
video.appendChild(source);
video.load();
