Full SplunkJS stack usage in SimpleXML extension

Hi All,

I wanted to use the splunkjs.Service.* classes available in the SplunkJS stack in a SimpleXML extension.
But it looks like that in splunk, there's only the mvc part available of the stack:

ls /opt/splunk/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/exposed/js/splunkjs:
total 332
drwxr-xr-x 2 splunk splunk   4096 Oct 23 02:06 compiled
-r--r--r-- 1 splunk splunk     73 Oct 23 01:33 config.js
drwxr-xr-x 4 splunk splunk   4096 Oct 23 02:06 contrib
drwxr-xr-x 2 splunk splunk   4096 Oct 23 02:06 css
drwxr-xr-x 2 splunk splunk   4096 Oct 23 02:06 generated
drwxr-xr-x 7 splunk splunk   4096 Oct 23 02:06 mvc
-r--r--r-- 1 splunk splunk    109 Oct 23 01:33 mvc.js
-r--r--r-- 1 splunk splunk   7632 Oct 23 01:33 preload.js
-r--r--r-- 1 splunk splunk  19531 Oct 23 01:33 ready.js
-r--r--r-- 1 splunk splunk 234494 Oct 23 01:33 splunk.js
-r--r--r-- 1 splunk splunk  42089 Oct 23 01:33 splunk.min.js

Can I just add the complete SplunkJS stack to my app and load it with requirejs or do I get any conflicts?

Thanks,
Simon

Following code worked for me:

  var service = mvc.createService();
  var savedSearches = service.savedSearches();

  savedSearches.fetch(function(err, mySavedSearches) {
            // Retrieve a specific saved search
            var mySavedSearch = mySavedSearches.item("saved_search_name");

            // Display some properties
            console.log("Name:                " + mySavedSearch.name);
            console.log("Query:               " + mySavedSearch.properties().search);
            console.log("Description:         " + mySavedSearch.properties().description);
            console.log("Scheduled:           " + mySavedSearch.properties().is_scheduled);
            console.log("Next scheduled time: " + mySavedSearch.properties().next_scheduled_time);
        });

I'm also interested in using services part of API and cannot find information about it so far.
Have you found out proper way to achieve this?
