JS 2.2.2: access jetspeed javascript engine

[Frank Otto <ot...@delta-barth.de>]

Hi,

in my custom portal I use the global "jetspeed" javascript variable to 
get information from jetspeed. For example:

-> jetspeed.page.isUA() ==> to check if user is logged in
-> jetspeed.page.name ==> to get the current page name
-> jetspeed.page.getPortletArray() ==> to get the available portlets
...

Is there a possibility to do this in jetui?


best regards,

Frank

Probably not.
The rendering engine is still server side with Jetui, whereas the
Desktop was 100% rendering in the client
So you are not going to see the rich set of javascript apis, but there
are a fair number of Rest apis now available for page and layout
manipulation

The functions provided in Jetui client side are all
customization-oriented: addPortlet, removePortlet, movePortlet,
attachPortlet, detachPortlet
 A lot of work went into the Desktop. Jetui development only spanned a
few months in 2010. We have a good foundation, but there is still a
lot of catchup to do, most notably with client side rendering and rich
client side apis


We did add a set of new Rest apis of with the 2.2.1 release
