    Integrate Dojo

    funkybreizh

      Hello,

       

      I try to integrate Dojo's widget in my portlet but, Dojo needs be declare like this :

       

      <script type="text/javascript" src="../../_static/js/dojo/dojo.js" djConfig="parseOnLoad: true">

       

      The problem come from the djConfig attribute.

       

      Because in gateIn-resources I declare it like this :

       

       

       

      but it's not parse because of the missing of the attribute djConfig.

       

      How to work with Dojo?

       

      Thanks,

          The definition in the gateIn-resources.xml does not support such thing for you.

           

          But absolutely there is another way to do that by using the "Setting Markup Head Element" feature in JSR-286. That is in your portlet's rendering, you could have something like following to add the head HTML script element :

           

                Element script = response.createElement("script");
                script.setAttribute("type", "text/javascript");
                script.setAttribute("src", "../../_static/js/dojo/dojo.js");
                script.setAttribute("djConfig", "parseOnLoad: true");
                response.addProperty(MimeResponse.MARKUP_HEAD_ELEMENT, script);
          

           

          Let me know if it works for you

            Yes it works, thank you.

             

            But, it's not a "good" solution, because I will have to do this in each portlet. If I could change the portal template, it will be better...

             

            Thanks for the tip

              Yes, the changing of portal template may be a better solution in your case now but be careful when you upgrade to a new GateIn version later. So it's not really good solution neither in my opinion

               

              BTW, you could address a JIRA issue for support the attributes definition for the HTML script tag in gatein-resources.xml if you expect it

                I just want to add that I have an init.jsp file and all my portlet include it.

                 

                In there is :

                 

                <script type="text/javascript">
                dojo.require("dojo.parser");
                dojo.addOnLoad(function(){
                dojo.parser.parse();
                });

                var theme = 'soria';
                if(!dojo.hasClass(dojo.body(),theme)) {
                dojo.addClass(dojo.body(),theme);
                }
                </script>

                 

                But when there are many portlets on the page, this script is execute many times and I'm not sure that's good. I feel like sometimes it's slow.

                Is there no solution for  integrating Dojo!!

                  In your case, there is a simple solution is to use a flag variable to check whether the script will be executed or not.

                    Hi, my problem isn't finished yet, It used to work but now I run the portal with "./gateIn run" and the portal generate a merged.js, and now I have lot's of javascript error with exo portal javascript (with menu, button etc). When I run with Eclipse, all js file where separate, with the merged.js it doesn't work at all!!!

                     

                    I don't understand why?!

                      I do not perfectly understand your use case, so it's hard to imagine what problem you are having.

                       

                      Basically when you start GateIn, you can set the variable -Dexo.product.developing=[ true | false ] to specify whether all js files configured in gatein-resources.xml are merged into one or not

                        Yes, I just discover that! Under eclipse I used to run with -Dexo.product.developing=true and it worked fine.

                         

                        In gatein.bat it's -Dexo.product.developing=false and GateIn merge all the JS files declare in gatein-resource.xml, and it doesn't work with Dojo...

                        But I will let the parameter to "true"
