04. Module: AppStore

Quick Start

Can be included as a dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>de.fraunhofer.ids.messaging</groupId>
    <artifactId>appstore</artifactId>
    <version>IDS_MESSAGING_SERVICES_VERSION</version>
</dependency>

Theoretical Background

• Similar structure as broker-module, relies on the messaging-module and thus the core-module.
• AppStoreService as a central point for sending IDS-Messages to the AppStore.
• Pre-built functions in AppStoreService, instead of having to build the specific message types individually.

Scope of Functionality

• URL of the AppStore must be known
• Predefined functions in the ClearingHouseService: requestAppStoreDescription, requestAppDescription, requestAppArtifact
• For example, for requestAppStoreDescription only the AppStore-URI is needed
