Organizing templates (newbie)

Hi,

I would like to know how I can organize my templates
in folders, eg. have my html as
$CONTEXT_ROOT/basic/Abc.html instead of
$CONTEXT_ROOT/Abc.html

When I try to simply put the htmls in a folder inside
the context root, I (very obviously) get an error:

"Could not find template for page Abc in locale en_US"

(All the examples I have seen so far keep the html
templates in the context root, also there seemed to be
no mention of this in the user-guide)

I imagine there should be some way to configure this
in the page specification file?

Thanks and Regards,
~ amol

Thanks!
That was exactly what I was looking for :)

(although I looked up the javadocs after reading your
mail and couldnt locate the rules in the javadocs)

Anyway, in case someone stumbles across this thread
here is the exact solution -

In Abc.page (page specification file) added the
following:

<context-asset name="$template"
path="/thepath/Abc.html"/>

Thanks and Regards,

Sorry, you wanted to relocated the html template, not the page spec, right?

Here are the rules from DefaultTemplateSource:
/**
  *  Finds the template for the given component, using the following rules:
  *  <ul>
  *  <li>If the component has a $template asset, use that
  *  <li>Look for a template in the same folder as the component
  *  <li>If a page in the application namespace, search in the 
application root
  *  <li>Fail!
  *  </ul>
  *
  *  @return the template, or null if not found
  *
  **/

You can also specify your own ITemplateSourceDelegate.

Hope this helps.

Jamie

Re: Organizing templates (newbie)

Posted by de...@yahoo.com.

I did the change as suggested, which also meant I had
to move the .page files under WEB-INF/thepath/, but it
still does not work.

To explain further, here is how I would like to
organize my deployment:


WebApp-Context-root/
  WEB-INF/
    Abc.page
    web.xml
    myapp.application
  html/
    Abc.html  <-- template file in a folder


 
As per the suggestion, I tried:


Context-root/
  WEB-INF/
    web.xml
    myapp.application
    html/      <--------------------------|
      Abc.page <-- moved .page file to matching folder
  html/
    Abc.html

...with the corresponding change in myapp.application.


Is there some way to map the actual location of the
html template to the .page specification file?

Thanks and Regards,
~ amol

in your .application file:

<page name="ThePageName" 
specification-path="/WEB-INF/thepath/ThePageName.page"/>
