Include same comment form from different resource type's views
Hello,
not sure the subject is clear...
I have this simple structure:
- document
-- page(s)
--- component(s) : 1 to 4 on each page
Those components can be of different type : image, text, map, graph. For
each I have a different sling:resourceType for the node and a corresponding
view (JSP)
I'd like to have a form on each component, to allow user to add comments.
They would be created under this path:
/document/pages/page1/components/component1/comments/*
For now I have only two component types: text and image
so in imageComponent/html.jsp I have this:
<sling:include path="${resource.path}" replaceSelectors="comment"/>
and next to html.jsp I have comment.jsp which contains this form: <form
method="POST" action="${resource.path}/comments/*" />
But I have the same in textComponent/. And so far I would have to duplicate
this form for each component type. I'm pretty sure there is a better way to
do it but I don't know how.
Having a specifig resourceType for the comment form would allow me to have
only one, but then I don't know how I could pass the "action" parameter
(e.g. the resource path) to this view.
I bet it's a simple requirement but I didn't find any tips in the document
nor in some examples I've found online.
Thank you for your help!
Regards,
Guillaume

Hello,
I had found this method: <sling:include path="${resource.path}"
resourceType="myapp/commentForm" /> (usually when you post a question you
find the answer right after...) but didn't think about the superType, which
will be useful too.
Many thanks to both of you!

Hi Guillaume,
Two more options for you:
You could make a simple file include to the form.jsp (in that case, you should name it form.jspf), like so:
<%@include file="/apps/...../form.jspf" %>
You could also include the same resource with a different resource type, thus rendering a different view for it, like so:
<sling:include path="${resource.path}" resourceType="myapp/commentForm" />
Here, /apps/myapp/commentForm would be your form component. This approach would be composition instead of inheritance.
However, the inheritance suggested by Stefan allows overriding the form.jsp in you subtypes, which might be handy.
Regards,
Olaf

hello guillaume.
a typical solution is to define another "common" resource types for your components and reference it as "sling:resourceSuperType", see [1], [2]
then you can move your comment.jsp to the folder of the "common" resource type and it is usable from all components inheriting from this.
