// Package oonimkall implements APIs used by OONI mobile apps. We // expose these APIs to mobile apps using gomobile. // // We expose two APIs: the task API, which is derived from the // API originally exposed by Measurement Kit, and the session API, // which is a Go API that mobile apps can use via `gomobile`. // // This package is named oonimkall because it contains a partial // reimplementation of the mkall API implemented by Measurement Kit // in, e.g., https://github.com/measurement-kit/mkall-ios. // // Task API // // The basic tenet of the task API is that you define an experiment // task you wanna run using a JSON, then you start a task for it, and // you receive events as serialized JSONs. In addition to this // functionality, we also include extra APIs used by OONI mobile. // // The task API was first defined in Measurement Kit v0.9.0. In this // context, it was called "the FFI API". The API we expose here is not // strictly an FFI API, but is close enough for the purpose of using // OONI from Android and iOS. See https://git.io/Jv4Rv // (measurement-kit/measurement-kit@v0.10.9) for a comprehensive // description of MK's FFI API. // // See also https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/engine/pull/347 for the // design document describing the task API. // // See also https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/engine/blob/master/DESIGN.md, // which explains why we implemented the oonimkall API. // // Session API // // The Session API is a Go API that can be exported to mobile apps // using the gomobile tool. The latest design document for this API is // at https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/engine/pull/954. // // The basic tenet of the session API is that you create an instance // of `Session` and use it to perform the operations you need. package oonimkall import ( "context" "encoding/json" "github.com/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/atomicx" "github.com/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/runtimex" ) // Task is an asynchronous task running an experiment.
