New menu entry under some conditions...
Hi, I've created a new Custom Resource Type with no problems by
following the instructions available in
http://lenya.apache.org/1_2_x/how-to/custom_resourcetype.html. Now, I
want that the menu entry for the creation of this new resource only
becomes active given certain conditions; I've looked into
/mypub/config/menus/generic.xsp /and couldn't figure out a way of
performing it. This is my current condition for the menu entry (New
Profile) to become active:
<xsp:logic>
{
if (Publication.ARCHIVE_AREA.equals(area) ||
Publication.TRASH_AREA.equals(area)) {
<item><i18n:text>New Document</i18n:text></item>
}
else {
<item uc:usecase="create" uc:step="showscreen"
href="?doctype=xhtml"><i18n:text>New Document</i18n:text></item>
<!-- Menu entry for New Profile -->
<item uc:usecase="create" uc:step="showscreen"
href="?doctype=profile"><i18n:text>New Profile</i18n:text></item>
}
}
</xsp:logic>
It's appearing in the same conditions as the New Document entry, but I
wish for it to be available only in this conditions if the url contains
the string "people_en.html" or "people_pt.html", which in practice is
the same to say that I only want it to be active only when the current
node has document id "people". From what I could make from it, I will
only have to insert a new if statement using the parameter
"currentDocumentId", but I don't know which method to use in order to
see if the string contains "people_". Can someone give me a hint about this?
Thanks in advance, regards
Rolando

IIRC, it is possible using url matcher as well, is it ?

This is ever preferrable, because scarcely 'people' will have
children other then profile type (or other 'people' as in my case),
and editors possibility also restricted.
Just users may get confused if menu changes from node to node.

I also played around with Resource Types and Custom Menus,
my approach is like this:
In <pubid>/menus.xmap add an Entry for the Resource Type,
it should look something like this:
<!-- menu for the people resource type -->
<map:match type="doctype" pattern="people">
<map:generate type="serverpages" src="config/menus/people.xsp"/>
<map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>
Then add your own menu as <pubid>/config/menus/people.xsp. You can start
with a copy of generic.xsp and change it to fit your needs.
The new menu appears when the "Authoring" tab in Lenya is chosen and the
selected Resource Type is "people".
best regards

In outer logic block, take a clean local document id:
String localDocumentId = <input:get-attribute module="page-envelope" as="string" name="document-id"/>;
/* the already defined documentID is not actually documentID but
rather document url, it contains prefix, area, language, etc */
And in logic block that defines menu items:
if ( localDocumentId.equals("/personal") ) {
<item uc:usecase="create" uc:step="showscreen" href="?doctype=profile"><i18n:text>Create user profile</i18n:text
}
else {
<item><i18n:text>Create user profile</i18n:text></item>
}
If you want to create profiles not only under document /personal but
also under its children, that you should use localDocumentId.startsWith("/personal");
