[gatein-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (GTNPORTAL-2363) sharedlayout.xml : configurable location path, not hardcoded as "war:conf/portal/portal/sharedlayout.xml"

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-2363?page=com.atlassian.jira.pl... ] Antoine Herzog updated GTNPORTAL-2363: -------------------------------------- Description: Hi, Today, the location of the sharedlayout.xml file is hardcoded. The location is : "war:conf/portal/portal/sharedlayout.xml" See the class file : POMDataStorage.java ********************** public Container getSharedLayout() throws Exception { String path = "war:/conf/portal/portal/sharedlayout.xml"; String out = IOUtil.getStreamContentAsString(confManager_.getInputStream(path)); ByteArrayInputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(out.getBytes("UTF-8")); IBindingFactory bfact = BindingDirectory.getFactory(Container.class); UnmarshallingContext uctx = (UnmarshallingContext)bfact.createUnmarshallingContext(); uctx.setDocument(is, null, "UTF-8", false); Container container = (Container)uctx.unmarshalElement(); generateStorageName(container); return container; } public void save() throws Exception { ********************** This is really not convenient for configuration, and not consistent with the configuration of the portals : "war:/conf/portal/portal/classic", "war:/conf/portal/portal/myPortal", etc... What would be nice is to be able to define where this file is. This would allow to have consistent configuration location, when we change the path of the templates of the portals. This allow to have several path, with diferent config, and change them more cleanly than copying "the" proper file in the uniquely allowed location. ********************** place to put this config info ? This is my guess, if I don't miss anything A) As it is Portal container level, I guess it coul be set in : PortalContainerDefinitionPlugin The corresponding xml file is the /conf/configuration.xml in the config jar. B) The other location that "looks nice" is in the UserPortalConfigService. The corresponding xml file is the /conf/myconfig/portal/portal-configuration.xml in the portal container war. There, it is in the same file where the location are defined, for the Portal pages and navigation templates. C) May be with another component to provide this configuration, that coulb be defined in the "conf/common/common-configuration.xml" ? ********************** The A) solution looks ok for me, as configuration setting matter. even though I did not look at the wiring, in the code, to get it then in the POMDataStorage, for processing. ********************** Workaround : put the file in the "conf/portal/portal" folder, even though the other elements of the config are in "conf/myCustomConfig/...".
