MozNetworkStatsManager.addAlarm()

This API is available on Firefox OS for internal applications only.

Summary

The addAlarm method installs an alarm on a network. When total data usage reaches threshold bytes, a "networkstats-alarm" system message is sent to the application, where the optional parameter data must be a cloneable object.

Syntax

var alarm = addAlarm(network, threshold, options);

Parameters

network
The origin of the data. It can specify wifi, mobile, or null. If null, data measurement from both origins are merged. To know in advance which kind of origin is available, the MozNetworkStatsManager.getAvailableNetworks method returns an Array of interfaces.
threshold
The total data usage threshold in bytes.
options Optional
Filtering options.
NetworkStatsAlarmOptions is a dictionary object providing filtering options.

Return

A DOMRequest object. If successful, the result field of the DOMRequest keeps the alarm Id.

Exceptions

InvalidNetwork
The network must be in the return of MozNetworkStatsManager.getAvailableNetworks.
