Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Hello,
Suppose I have a CSS file that is used in our application (HeaderContributer
etc.)
In this file I have many classes.
Suppose I want to get an attribute that is in one of these classes.
Example:
In my CSS file I have:
...
.colored-table {
border: thin;
background-color: #BBBBBB
...
}
I want in Wicket code something like:
getClassAttributeFromCss(CSS_File, attributeName).
And, putting in CSS file the location of that file (same methods as in the
HeaderContributor.forCss).
Putting "background-color" in the second parameter.
Result: #BBBBBB
Is it possible?

James,
Yes, I would like you to send an example of this route.
It looks as this is what I need.

Re: Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Posted by jwcarman <ja...@carmanconsulting.com>.
Well, I came up with a way to do it. I wrote a new class called
TextTemplateResourceReference, which you can use along with a
StyleSheetReference. Basically, you just pass it in a model for the
variables to plugin. I don't know about that lastModifiedTime()
implementation, but its overridable if anyone wants to do something
different. If anyone wants the code to turn a java.awt.Color object into a
hex string appropriate for CSS stylesheets, let me know. I've got that
floating around somewhere.

Perhaps if it's that beneficial to folks, I'll put a wiki page out
there in the "how to" section.

Tanks James! At the moment I do not need that code myself but maybe it could

We're going to go with the "generate the CSS" route. I'm going to
implement that today. If you want me to send you some code after I'm
done, I can do that.

Re: Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Posted by Ernesto Reinaldo Barreiro <re...@gmail.com>.
Why don't you just generate the CSS or parse it if that's not possible...
With the former approach you will have the color before hand, with the
latter you will have to locate it "somewhere" on the CSS. So, what is the
best solution will depend on how you manage CSS on your application...
Best,
Ernesto

Re: Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Posted by Steve Swinsburg <s....@lancaster.ac.uk>.
I understand you need to match some attributes, but I don't understand
why the CSS can't just have an extra class containing the attributes
you need. Where does the CSS come from? Is it fixed or does it change
a lot, ie via user specified/uploaded skins etc?
cheers,
Steve

Stephen,
I need this the same reason James needs it.
We generate an image (a JFreeChart image) and we want it to have the same
background color as the one specified in the CSS file.

Re: Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Posted by Ernesto Reinaldo Barreiro <re...@gmail.com>.
I don't know on the Wicket wiki... but when I have to use such things I
always look into the "existing wicket code". A quick search on my IDE leads
me to this the class org.wicketstuff.yui.markup.html.slider.Slider where a
text template is used to populate the init.js file... Hope this helps...
Best,
Ernesto

I was thinking about learning how to use TextTemplates to generate the
CSS. Is there any good reference out there?

Re: Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Posted by Ernesto Reinaldo Barreiro <re...@gmail.com>.
I see two options:
1-Generate the css out for of some other data you can easily use at Java
level (a velocity template maybe?)
2-Parse the CSS (e.g. with
http://cssparser.sourceforge.net/)<http://cssparser.sourceforge.net/>
<http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/SAC/>
For a project I had to use approach 2 and it worked fine except for some
glitches on the parser (don't remember exactly but I think it was something
about _ character not accepted by the parser as part of CSS class-names, but
maybe this has already been fixed).
Best,
Ernesto

Re: Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Posted by James Carman <ja...@carmanconsulting.com>.
I have the same sort of need in my application. I need to do an
"overlay" on an existing image using the same colors that are defined
in a CSS document. I guess I could dynamically generate the CSS, but
I have no idea how to go about that. :)

What do you need it for? Why can't you just make another class with just the attribute in it and AttributeAppender that in?

Thanks Steve but this is not what I meant.
Adding a class as an attribute to a component is a pretty basic stuff.
What I want is, getting a value of an attribute of a class in a CSS file.

On your component attach an AttributeAppender or AttributeModifier, set the "class" attribute to be the name of your class. Done :)

Subject: Reading an attribute that is set in a CSS file as a class
Hello,
Suppose I have a CSS file that is used in our application (HeaderContributer
etc.)
In this file I have many classes.
Suppose I want to get an attribute that is in one of these classes.
Example:
In my CSS file I have:
...
.colored-table {
border: thin;
background-color: #BBBBBB
...
}
I want in Wicket code something like:
getClassAttributeFromCss(CSS_File, attributeName).
And, putting in CSS file the location of that file (same methods as in the
HeaderContributor.forCss).
Putting "background-color" in the second parameter.
Result: #BBBBBB
Is it possible?
