TryOnOptions.mode ​

Contract 2.0.0 · package sha256 a857eca95b35921109faf997094bb4192f12527d9d0fcd4be7e97f06425bad6e · generated from configurator-runtime.d.ts by services/onsite-scripter/scripts/build-contract-docs.mjs; edit the source, not this file.

Property of TryOnOptions · labs, @experimental · since 2.0.0

ts
mode?: 'auto' | 'here' | 'handoff';

'auto' picks for this device, which is 'here'; 'here' this page; 'handoff' a phone: Holostep's hand-off screen shows a QR code of returnUrl (or this page's address) and the same link to copy, in overlayRoot or a layer over the page, and the shopper opens it on a phone, where the page's own Try-on control starts the camera. This page sees nothing of the phone. Offer it where canTryOn().modes lists 'handoff', after supports('tryOn.mode.handoff') (where it answers false the call resolves 'unsupported').

Default: 'auto'

Example ​

Imports: values (has, validate, the Holo*Error classes, the pure helpers) from @holostep-configurators/runtime-client, types from @holostep-configurators/runtime-client/contract, /math and /testing names from those entries; boot from the runtime module the root's loadRuntimeAtFloor resolves to. A type your page defines is your app's: declare it there, never import it from the package.

Compiled under the contract's strict settings (examples/declaration/16-TryOnOptions.mode.ts):

ts
import { has } from '@holostep-configurators/runtime-client';
import type { Session } from '@holostep-configurators/runtime-client/contract';
declare const session: Session;
declare const signal: AbortSignal;
declare const onComputer: boolean; // the page's own device test: a phone can't scan itself
declare function showPhoneButton(visible: boolean): void;
// A computer offers try-on with a phone where the hand-off can open.
const modes = has(session, 'canTryOn') ? session.canTryOn().modes : [];
const offer = session.supports('tryOn.mode.handoff') && modes.includes('handoff');
showPhoneButton(onComputer && offer);
// In that button's click handler: the QR code opens this product's page on the phone.
const report = await session.tryOn?.({ mode: 'handoff', returnUrl: location.href, signal });
if (report && !report.launched) showPhoneButton(false);

Generic-API test (spec 3.1) ​

Rule Result
1. Neutral name pass: mode names no product
2. A precedent pass: model-viewer canActivateAR and activateAR() (row G66); XRSession.end() (row G66); Navigator.share() (resolves when the share UI closes) (row G66)
3. Two apps, or labs labs (@experimental at a stable path, reached through has() or supports()): it graduates when a second app uses it; apps today: configurator-template, tryon-template
4. The cheaper fix first decided per need in Appendix B: rows G66 at tier labs (a member only where no rule, data, asset or app code serves the need)
