[Proposal] - Leverage the CMS capability for Product Store's Email
Hello Devs,
While looking into the support of email templates for Product Store, we
found it is managed by screens.
Like for Order Completion
<ProductStoreEmailSetting
bodyScreenLocation="component://ecommerce/widget/EmailOrderScreens.xml#OrderCompleteNotice"
emailType="PRDS_ODR_COMPLETE" fromAddress="ofbiztest@example.com"
productStoreId="9000" subject="OFBiz Demo - Your Order Is Complete
#${orderId}"/>
Here you can see, we are having dependency on screens (i.e. templates
defined in file system)
Due to this, the user is unable to edit the email template on the fly.
We can enhance this mechanism by making the template as content driven.
Here is the design plan,
We can extend the ProductStoreEmailSetting entity by contentId field.
While rendering email based on its type, if the contentId is present, this
content will render, else system will look for bodyScreenLocation (our
existing implementation)
Using this we can leverage the CMS capability of the OFBiz.
Right now if end user (client) wants to make any change in the email
template, it required the changes in the file.
If we manage this by content, the user can edit this on the fly with the
help of CMS.
All the inputs and suggestions are welcome!
- Best Regards,
Swapnil M Mane

Thanks, Nicolas and everyone for sharing your thoughts.
The model we discussed in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3894
is making perfect sense to me. I guess, we should proceed in small steps to
implement this.
@Nicolas, the patch provided by you will be really helpful.

Thanks Nicolas for your inputs and sharing more details. This proposed

Please give me some more time to look into the details, will get back to

My fault, I'm not clear. ProductStoreEmailSetting and
EmailTemplateSetting are redundancy,
I'm in favor to keep all email template information in
EmailTemplateSetting and use ProductStoreEmailTemplate to link a email
template to a productStore throw a purpose.
So we can deprecate all email template fields in
ProductStoreEmailSetting to centralize all this part in
EmailTemplateSetting

Completely, except for attached file. I agree for rendering the email
content, but if you want link the file to your email its more easier to
indicate it on EmailTemplateSetting.
An example, when you send a order confirmation, you want attach to this
email the the legal notice. We would be link directly the contentId
where is the legal notice and an other content for the email body.

We may have multiple product store and can have different email templates

Having content model with us, the customizable header, footer
(decoratorContentId at content level) and other complex case can be handled
easily with content model.

Hello Swapnil,
In past I tried to refactoring email interface with the idea to :
* deprecate current ProductStoreEmailSetting to link it to
TemplateEmailSetting. The purpose is to centralize all email
configuration in this entity
* link TemplateEmailSetting with Content through
TemplateEmailSettingContent and TemplateEmailSettingContentType. This
offert the possibilty to link header, body, footer or some more complex
case like link documents, pdf invoice, order, etc ...
* review all send email function to manage the content rendering
But the time has been missed :(
If you are motivate, we can try to revive this idea ?

Thank you so much Michael for your input and suggestion :)
This will work, but I still feel suggested proposal could be a good
improvement we can have OOTB.
What do you say.

We have explored the code base, the implementation on contentId at
ProductStoreEmailSetting, will not required heavy code changes.

Hi Swapnil,
you can achieve this by just putting something like:
<@renderSubContentCache subContentId="${yourContentId!}"/>
in your template file for the corresponding screen and edit the content
like you proposed.
This solution does not support the fallback mechanism you proposed but
does not require any code changes.
