[jira] [Commented] (WICKET-4471) Generic registry of javascript/css resource references

["Martin Grigorov (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-4471?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13238383#comment-13238383 ] 

Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-4471:
-----------------------------------------

There is org.apache.wicket.request.resource.ResourceReference#getDependencies().
This way a resource X can say "I depend on resource Y". 
This is how wicket-ajax-jquery.js depends on wicket-event.js which depends on jquery.js. I.e. doing 

headerResponse.render(JavaScriptHeaderItem.forReference(WicketAjaxResourceReference.INSTANCE));

will contribute wicket-ajax.js, wicket-event.js and jquery.js.

Does this help for your case ?

> It would be nice if JavaScriptLibrarySettings had a generic mechanism to register javascript/css resource references (maybe using something like MetaDataKeys).
> This way, extension/third-party components (ModalWindow, DateTimeField, etc.) could register their resources, or just lookup for substitute resource references for their own scripts/stylesheets.
> This would allow some optimizations, such as minification/compression and joining many files into one, and hosting static files in CDNs.
