# Mojom IDL and Bindings Generator
This document is a subset of the [Mojo documentation](/mojo/README.md).

[TOC]

## Overview

Mojom is the IDL for Mojo bindings interfaces. Given a `.mojom` file, the
[bindings
generator](https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/mojo/public/tools/bindings/)
outputs bindings for all supported languages: **C++**, **JavaScript**, and
**Java**.

For a trivial example consider the following hypothetical Mojom file we write to
`//services/widget/public/interfaces/frobinator.mojom`:

```
module widget.mojom;

interface Frobinator {
  Frobinate();
};
```

This defines a single [interface](#Interfaces) named `Frobinator` in a
[module](#Modules) named `widget.mojom` (and thus fully qualified in Mojom as
`widget.mojom.Frobinator`.) Note that many interfaces and/or other types of
definitions may be included in a single Mojom file.

If we add a corresponding GN target to
`//services/widget/public/interfaces/BUILD.gn`:

```
import("mojo/public/tools/bindings/mojom.gni")

mojom("interfaces") {
  sources = [
    "frobinator.mojom",
  ]
}
```

and then build this target:

```
ninja -C out/r services/widget/public/interfaces
```

we'll find several generated sources in our output directory:

```
out/r/gen/services/widget/public/interfaces/frobinator.mojom.cc
out/r/gen/services/widget/public/interfaces/frobinator.mojom.h
out/r/gen/services/widget/public/interfaces/frobinator.mojom.js
out/r/gen/services/widget/public/interfaces/frobinator.mojom.srcjar
...
```

Each of these generated source modules includes a set of definitions
representing the Mojom contents within the target language. For more details
regarding the generated outputs please see
[documentation for individual target languages](#Generated-Code-For-Target-Languages).

## Mojom Syntax

Mojom IDL allows developers to define **structs**, **unions**, **interfaces**,
**constants**, and **enums**, all within the context of a **module**. These
definitions are used to generate code in the supported target languages at build
time.

Mojom files may **import** other Mojom files in order to reference their
definitions.

### Primitive Types
Mojom supports a few basic data types which may be composed into structs or used
for message parameters.

| Type                          | Description
|-------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------|
| `bool`                        | Boolean type (`true` or `false`.)
| `int8`, `uint8`               | Signed or unsigned 8-bit integer.
| `int16`, `uint16`             | Signed or unsigned 16-bit integer.
| `int32`, `uint32`             | Signed or unsigned 32-bit integer.
| `int64`, `uint64`             | Signed or unsigned 64-bit integer.
| `float`, `double`             | 32- or 64-bit floating point number.
| `string`                      | UTF-8 encoded string.
| `array<T>`                    | Array of any Mojom type *T*; for example, `array<uint8>` or `array<array<string>>`.
| `array<T, N>`                 | Fixed-length array of any Mojom type *T*. The parameter *N* must be an integral constant.
| `map<S, T>`                   | Associated array maping values of type *S* to values of type *T*. *S* may be a `string`, `enum`, or numeric type.
| `handle`                      | Generic Mojo handle. May be any type of handle, including a wrapped native platform handle.
| `handle<message_pipe>`        | Generic message pipe handle.
| `handle<shared_buffer>`       | Shared buffer handle.
| `handle<data_pipe_producer>`  | Data pipe producer handle.
| `handle<data_pipe_consumer>`  | Data pipe consumer handle.
| *`InterfaceType`*             | Any user-defined Mojom interface type. This is sugar for a strongly-typed message pipe handle which should eventually be used to make outgoing calls on the interface.
| *`InterfaceType&`*            | An interface request for any user-defined Mojom interface type. This is sugar for a more strongly-typed message pipe handle which is expected to receive request messages and should therefore eventually be bound to an implementation of the interface.
| *`associated InterfaceType`*  | An associated interface handle. See [Associated Interfaces](#Associated-Interfaces)
| *`associated InterfaceType&`* | An associated interface request. See [Associated Interfaces](#Associated-Interfaces)
| *T*?                          | An optional (nullable) value. Primitive numeric types (integers, floats, booleans, and enums) are not nullable. All other types are nullable.

### Modules

Every Mojom file may optionally specify a single **module** to which it belongs.

This is used strictly for aggregaging all defined symbols therein within a
common Mojom namespace. The specific impact this has on generated binidngs code
varies for each target language. For example, if the following Mojom is used to
generate bindings:

```
module business.stuff;

interface MoneyGenerator {
  GenerateMoney();
};
```

Generated C++ bindings will define a class interface `MoneyGenerator` in the
`business::stuff` namespace, while Java bindings will define an interface
`MoneyGenerator` in the `org.chromium.business.stuff` package. JavaScript
bindings at this time are unaffected by module declarations.

**NOTE:** By convention in the Chromium codebase, **all** Mojom files should
declare a module name with at least (and preferrably exactly) one top-level name
as well as an inner `mojom` module suffix. *e.g.*, `chrome.mojom`,
`business.mojom`, *etc.*

This convention makes it easy to tell which symbols are generated by Mojom when
reading non-Mojom code, and it also avoids namespace collisions in the fairly
common scenario where you have a real C++ or Java `Foo` along with a
corresponding Mojom `Foo` for its serialized representation.

### Imports

If your Mojom references definitions from other Mojom files, you must **import**
those files. Import syntax is as follows:

```
import "services/widget/public/interfaces/frobinator.mojom";
```

Import paths are always relative to the top-level directory.

Note that circular imports are **not** supported.

### Structs

Structs are defined using the **struct** keyword, and they provide a way to
group related fields together:

``` cpp
struct StringPair {
  string first;
  string second;
};
```

Struct fields may be comprised of any of the types listed above in the
[Primitive Types](#Primitive-Types) section.

Default values may be specified as long as they are constant:

``` cpp
struct Request {
  int32 id = -1;
  string details;
};
```

What follows is a fairly
comprehensive example using the supported field types:

``` cpp
struct StringPair {
  string first;
  string second;
};

enum AnEnum {
  YES,
  NO
};

interface SampleInterface {
  DoStuff();
};

struct AllTheThings {
  // Note that these types can never be marked nullable!
  bool boolean_value;
  int8 signed_8bit_value = 42;
  uint8 unsigned_8bit_value;
  int16 signed_16bit_value;
  uint16 unsigned_16bit_value;
  int32 signed_32bit_value;
  uint32 unsigned_32bit_value;
  int64 signed_64bit_value;
  uint64 unsigned_64bit_value;
  float float_value_32bit;
  double float_value_64bit;
  AnEnum enum_value = AnEnum.YES;

  // Strings may be nullable.
  string? maybe_a_string_maybe_not;

  // Structs may contain other structs. These may also be nullable.
  StringPair some_strings;
  StringPair? maybe_some_more_strings;

  // In fact structs can also be nested, though in practice you must always make
  // such fields nullable -- otherwise messages would need to be infinitely long
  // in order to pass validation!
  AllTheThings? more_things;

  // Arrays may be templated over any Mojom type, and are always nullable:
  array<int32> numbers;
  array<int32>? maybe_more_numbers;

  // Arrays of arrays of arrays... are fine.
  array<array<array<AnEnum>>> this_works_but_really_plz_stop;

  // The element type may be nullable if it's a type which is allowed to be
  // nullable.
  array<AllTheThings?> more_maybe_things;

  // Fixed-size arrays get some extra validation on the receiving end to ensure
  // that the correct number of elements is always received.
  array<uint64, 2> uuid;

  // Maps follow many of the same rules as arrays. Key types may be any
  // non-handle, non-collection type, and value types may be any supported
  // struct field type. Maps may also be nullable.
  map<string, int32> one_map;
  map<AnEnum, string>? maybe_another_map;
  map<StringPair, AllTheThings?>? maybe_a_pretty_weird_but_valid_map;
  map<StringPair, map<int32, array<map<string, string>?>?>?> ridiculous;

  // And finally, all handle types are valid as struct fields and may be
  // nullable. Note that interfaces and interface requests (the "Foo" and
  // "Foo&" type syntax respectively) are just strongly-typed message pipe
  // handles.
  handle generic_handle;
  handle<data_pipe_consumer> reader;
  handle<data_pipe_producer>? maybe_writer;
  handle<shared_buffer> dumping_ground;
  handle<message_pipe> raw_message_pipe;
  SampleInterface? maybe_a_sample_interface_client_pipe;
  SampleInterface& non_nullable_sample_interface_request;
  SampleInterface&? nullable_sample_interface_request;
  associated SampleInterface associated_interface_client;
  associated SampleInterface& associated_interface_request;
  associated SampleInterface&? maybe_another_associated_request;
};
```

For details on how all of these different types translate to usable generated
code, see
[documentation for individual target languages](#Generated-Code-For-Target-Languages).

### Unions

Mojom supports tagged unions using the **union** keyword. A union is a
collection of fields which may taken the value of any single one of those fields
at a time. Thus they provide a way to represent a variant value type while
minimizing storage requirements.

Union fields may be of any type supported by [struct](#Structs) fields. For
example:

```cpp
union ExampleUnion {
  string str;
  StringPair pair;
  int64 id;
  array<uint64, 2> guid;
  SampleInterface iface;
};
```

For details on how unions like this translate to generated bindings code, see
[documentation for individual target languages](#Generated-Code-For-Target-Languages).

### Enumeration Types

Enumeration types may be defined using the **enum** keyword either directly
within a module or within the namespace of some struct or interface:

```
module business.mojom;

enum Department {
  SALES = 0,
  DEV,
};

struct Employee {
  enum Type {
    FULL_TIME,
    PART_TIME,
  };

  Type type;
  // ...
};
```

That that similar to C-style enums, individual values may be explicitly assigned
within an enum definition. By default values are based at zero and incremenet by
1 sequentially.

The effect of nested definitions on generated bindings varies depending on the
target language. See [documentation for individual target languages](#Generated-Code-For-Target-Languages)

### Constants

Constants may be defined using the **const** keyword either directly within a
module or within the namespace of some struct or interface:

```
module business.mojom;

const string kServiceName = "business";

struct Employee {
  const uint64 kInvalidId = 0;

  enum Type {
    FULL_TIME,
    PART_TIME,
  };

  uint64 id = kInvalidId;
  Type type;
};
```

The effect of nested definitions on generated bindings varies depending on the
target language. See [documentation for individual target languages](#Generated-Code-For-Target-Languages)

### Interfaces

An **interface** is a logical bundle of parameterized request messages. Each
request message may optionally define a parameterized response message. Here's
syntax to define an interface `Foo` with various kinds of requests:

```
interface Foo {
  // A request which takes no arguments and expects no response.
  MyMessage();

  // A request which has some arguments and expects no response.
  MyOtherMessage(string name, array<uint8> bytes);

  // A request which expects a single-argument response.
  MyMessageWithResponse(string command) => (bool success);

  // A request which expects a response with multiple arguments.
  MyMessageWithMoarResponse(string a, string b) => (int8 c, int8 d);
};
```

Anything which is a valid struct field type (see [Structs](#Structs)) is also a
valid request or response argument type. The type notation is the same for both.

### Attributes

Mojom definitions may have their meaning altered by **attributes**, specified
with a syntax similar to Java or C# attributes. There are a handle of
interesting attributes supported today.

**`[Sync]`**
:   The `Sync` attribute may be specified for any interface method which expects
    a response. This makes it so that callers of the method can wait
    synchronously for a response. See
    [Synchronous Calls](/mojo/public/cpp/bindings/README.md#Synchronous-Calls)
    in the C++ bindings documentation. Note that sync calls are not currently
    supported in other target languages.

**`[Extensible]`**
:   The `Extensible` attribute may be specified for any enum definition. This
    essentially disables builtin range validation when receiving values of the
    enum type in a message, allowing older bindings to tolerate unrecognized
    values from newer versions of the enum.

**`[Native]`**
:   The `Native` attribute may be specified for an empty struct declaration to
    provide a nominal bridge between Mojo IPC and legacy `IPC::ParamTraits` or
    `IPC_STRUCT_TRAITS*` macros.
    See [Using Legacy IPC Traits](/ipc/README.md#Using-Legacy-IPC-Traits) for
    more details. Note support for this attribute is strictly limited to C++
    bindings generation.

**`[MinVersion=N]`**
:   The `MinVersion` attribute is used to specify the version at which a given
    field, enum value, interface method, or method parameter was introduced.
    See [Versioning](#Versioning) for more details.

**`[EnableIf=value]`**
:   The `EnableIf` attribute is used to conditionally enable definitions when
    the mojom is parsed. If the `mojom` target in the GN file does not include
    the matching `value` in the list of `enabled_features`, the definition
    will be disabled. This is useful for mojom definitions that only make
    sense on one platform. Note that the `EnableIf` attribute can only be set
    once per definition.

## Generated Code For Target Languages

When the bindings generator successfully processes an input Mojom file, it emits
corresponding code for each supported target language. For more details on how
Mojom concepts translate to a given target langauge, please refer to the
bindings API documentation for that language:

* [C++ Bindings](/mojo/public/cpp/bindings/README.md)
* [JavaScript Bindings](/mojo/public/js/README.md)
* [Java Bindings](/mojo/public/java/bindings/README.md)

## Message Validation

Regardless of target language, all interface messages are validated during
deserialization before they are dispatched to a receiving implementation of the
interface. This helps to ensure consitent validation across interfaces without
leaving the burden to developers and security reviewers every time a new message
is added.

If a message fails validation, it is never dispatched. Instead a **connection
error** is raised on the binding object (see
[C++ Connection Errors](/mojo/public/cpp/bindings/README.md#Connection-Errors),
[Java Connection Errors](/mojo/public/java/bindings/README.md#Connection-Errors),
or
[JavaScript Connection Errors](/mojo/public/js/README.md#Connection-Errors) for
details.)

Some baseline level of validation is done automatically for primitive Mojom
types.

### Non-Nullable Objects

Mojom fields or parameter values (*e.g.*, structs, interfaces, arrays, *etc.*)
may be marked nullable in Mojom definitions (see
[Primitive Types](#Primitive-Types).) If a field or parameter is **not** marked
nullable but a message is received with a null value in its place, that message
will fail validation.

### Enums

Enums declared in Mojom are automatically validated against the range of legal
values. For example if a Mojom declares the enum:

``` cpp
enum AdvancedBoolean {
  TRUE = 0,
  FALSE = 1,
  FILE_NOT_FOUND = 2,
};
```

and a message is received with the integral value 3 (or anything other than 0,
1, or 2) in place of some `AdvancedBoolean` field or parameter, the message will
fail validation.

*** note
NOTE: It's possible to avoid this type of validation error by explicitly marking
an enum as [Extensible](#Attributes) if you anticipate your enum being exchanged
between two different versions of the binding interface. See
[Versioning](#Versioning).
***

### Other failures

There are a  host of internal validation errors that may occur when a malformed
message is received, but developers should not be concerned with these
specifically; in general they can only result from internal bindings bugs,
compromised processes, or some remote endpoint making a dubious effort to
manually encode their own bindings messages.

### Custom Validation

It's also possible for developers to define custom validation logic for specific
Mojom struct types by exploiting the
[type mapping](/mojo/public/cpp/bindings/README.md#Type-Mapping) system for C++
bindings. Messages rejected by custom validation logic trigger the same
validation failure behavior as the built-in type validation routines.

## Associated Interfaces

As mentioned in the [Primitive Types](#Primitive-Types) section above, interface
and interface request fields and parameters may be marked as `associated`. This
essentially means that they are piggy-backed on some other interface's message
pipe.

Because individual interface message pipes operate independently there can be no
relative ordering guarantees among them. Associated interfaces are useful when
one interface needs to guarantee strict FIFO ordering with respect to one or
more other interfaces, as they allow interfaces to share a single pipe.

Currenly associated interfaces are only supported in generated C++ bindings.
See the documentation for
[C++ Associated Interfaces](/mojo/public/cpp/bindings/README.md#Associated-Interfaces).

## Versioning

### Overview

*** note
**NOTE:** You don't need to worry about versioning if you don't care about
backwards compatibility. Specifically, all parts of Chrome are updated
atomically today and there is not yet any possibility of any two Chrome
processes communicating with two different versions of any given Mojom
interface.
***

Services extend their interfaces to support new features over time, and clients
want to use those new features when they are available. If services and clients
are not updated at the same time, it's important for them to be able to
communicate with each other using different snapshots (versions) of their
interfaces.

This document shows how to extend Mojom interfaces in a backwards-compatible
way. Changing interfaces in a non-backwards-compatible way is not discussed,
because in that case communication between different interface versions is
impossible anyway.

### Versioned Structs

You can use the `MinVersion` [attribute](#Attributes) to indicate from which
version a struct field is introduced. Assume you have the following struct:

``` cpp
struct Employee {
  uint64 employee_id;
  string name;
};
```

and you would like to add a birthday field. You can do:

``` cpp
struct Employee {
  uint64 employee_id;
  string name;
  [MinVersion=1] Date? birthday;
};
```

By default, fields belong to version 0. New fields must be appended to the
struct definition (*i.e*., existing fields must not change **ordinal value**)
with the `MinVersion` attribute set to a number greater than any previous
existing versions.

**Ordinal value** refers to the relative positional layout of a struct's fields
(and an interface's methods) when encoded in a message. Implicitly, ordinal
numbers are assigned to fields according to lexical position. In the example
above, `employee_id` has an ordinal value of 0 and `name` has an ordinal value
of 1.

Ordinal values can be specified explicitly using `**@**` notation, subject to
the following hard constraints:

* For any given struct or interface, if any field or method explicitly specifies
    an ordinal value, all fields or methods must explicitly specify an ordinal
    value.
* For an *N*-field struct or *N*-method interface, the set of explicitly
    assigned ordinal values must be limited to the range *[0, N-1]*.

You may reorder fields, but you must ensure that the ordinal values of existing
fields remain unchanged. For example, the following struct remains
backwards-compatible:

``` cpp
struct Employee {
  uint64 employee_id@0;
  [MinVersion=1] Date? birthday@2;
  string name@1;
};
```

*** note
**NOTE:** Newly added fields of Mojo object or handle types MUST be nullable.
See [Primitive Types](#Primitive-Types).
***

### Versioned Interfaces

There are two dimensions on which an interface can be extended

**Appending New Parameters To Existing Methods**
:   Parameter lists are treated as structs internally, so all the rules of
    versioned structs apply to method parameter lists. The only difference is
    that the version number is scoped to the whole interface rather than to any
    individual parameter list.

    Please note that adding a response to a message which did not previously
    expect a response is a not a backwards-compatible change.

**Appending New Methods**
:   Similarly, you can reorder methods with explicit ordinal values as long as
    the ordinal values of existing methods are unchanged.

For example:

``` cpp
// Old version:
interface HumanResourceDatabase {
  AddEmployee(Employee employee) => (bool success);
  QueryEmployee(uint64 id) => (Employee? employee);
};

// New version:
interface HumanResourceDatabase {
  AddEmployee(Employee employee) => (bool success);

  QueryEmployee(uint64 id, [MinVersion=1] bool retrieve_finger_print)
      => (Employee? employee,
          [MinVersion=1] array<uint8>? finger_print);

  [MinVersion=1]
  AttachFingerPrint(uint64 id, array<uint8> finger_print)
      => (bool success);
};
```

Similar to [versioned structs](#Versioned-Structs), when you pass the parameter
list of a request or response method to a destination using an older version of
an interface, unrecognized fields are silently discarded. However, if the method
call itself is not recognized, it is considered a validation error and the
receiver will close its end of the interface pipe. For example, if a client on
version 1 of the above interface sends an `AttachFingerPrint` request to an
implementation of version 0, the client will be disconnected.

Bindings target languages that support versioning expose means to query or
assert the remote version from a client handle (*e.g.*, an
`InterfacePtr<T>` in C++ bindings.)

See
[C++ Versioning Considerations](/mojo/public/cpp/bindings/README.md#Versioning-Considerations)
and
[Java Versioning Considerations](/mojo/public/java/bindings/README.md#Versioning-Considerations)

### Versioned Enums

**By default, enums are non-extensible**, which means that generated message
validation code does not expect to see new values in the future. When an unknown
value is seen for a non-extensible enum field or parameter, a validation error
is raised.

If you want an enum to be extensible in the future, you can apply the
`[Extensible]` [attribute](#Attributes):

``` cpp
[Extensible]
enum Department {
  SALES,
  DEV,
};
```

And later you can extend this enum without breaking backwards compatibility:

``` cpp
[Extensible]
enum Department {
  SALES,
  DEV,
  [MinVersion=1] RESEARCH,
};
```

*** note
**NOTE:** For versioned enum definitions, the use of a `[MinVersion]` attribute
is strictly for documentation purposes. It has no impact on the generated code.
***

With extensible enums, bound interface implementations may receive unknown enum
values and will need to deal with them gracefully. See
[C++ Versioning Considerations](/mojo/public/cpp/bindings/README.md#Versioning-Considerations)
for details.
