Getting the portalname programmatically

hauch May 25, 2010 8:29 AM

I have created my own (sub)portal in the browser.

Is there a way to obtain the name of the portal programmatically?

So for instance invoking a portlet on page with url

... would make me able to extract <my portal> in my code.

I can get somewhat close with ExoContainerContext.getCurrentContainer().getContext().getPortalContainerName() which gives me 'portal'.

Any suggestions?

I believe what you should be using instead is the PortalRequestContext (use PortalRequestContext.getCurrentInstance() to get access to it). I think the portal name is retrieved through something like getPortalOwner

Yes, you could retrieve portal name via PortalRequestContext.getPortalOwner();

and for the returned ExoContainerContext.
getCurrentContainer().getContext().getPortalContainerName(), it would be corresponding to http://localhost:8080/<portal container name>/private/<my portal>/<page>
