orion.core.favorite

The orion.core.favorite service is used to access and store the user's bookmarks or favorites. While a user may opt to use their own browser's bookmark mechanism instead, there are some specific advantages to using Orion's favorite service instead:

• Favorites are persisted on the server, so the user can switch to another client computer or browser and access their familiar bookmarks
• Favorites are associated with a specific Orion application and user, so favorites from different users or applications are not all mixed into a single place.
• Favorites are used to suggest file and folder based parameters for other actions in Orion, such as moving and copying files to a location, or finding specific files.

Here is an example usage of the favorites service:

serviceRegistry.getService("orion.core.favorite").makeFavorites(itemOrArray);

See orion.favorites.FavoritesService in the Orion client API reference for a complete list of functions available on the favorite service.
