Terminology used
To be clear with the terminology used in the code here:
- a method is an allowed JSON-RPC api method or a shell method
- a methodGroup is the grouping of similar methods (see
methodGroups.js) - a permission is a boolean which tells if an app is allowed to call a method or not
- a request is when an app prompts the shell to call a method
- a requestGroup is a map of the following form
{
appId1: {
methodGroup1: [request1, request2] // This is a requestGroup sub-item
},
appId2: {
methodGroup1: [request1]
methodGroup2: [request3]
},
// ...
}
