Service

Base class for user services.

By default, construction registers the service with the current page after init() returns, whether or not the override calls super().init(). Set client properties and event handlers in init() so they are included in registration and available when the Dart service initializes. Without a current page context, the service is constructed but not registered.

Note

Inside init(), the service isn't attached to the page yet: self.page and self.update() raise. Use ft.context.page to access the current page.

Declared fields participate in serialization unless excluded with metadata={"skip": True}; a leading underscore does not exclude a field. Keep Python-only state, such as clients or handles, in excluded fields or attributes assigned in init() without declaring them as fields.
