The wicket way of getting application base URL
Hello,
I'm currently using SelfUpdatingAjaxBehavior [1] to get application base
URL used by the end user.
Maybe there is more standard way of doing this?
Or maybe code like this can be added to ClientInfo?
Thanks in advance!

I think that such a configuration option is likely your only choice, and is
something I often see in other webapps. The only other option I can think
of would be if the proxy was passing a header with the original requested
URL. However, I don't see such functionality in mod_proxy (at least from a
quick skim of its documentation).
I can imagine a hacky way of using Javascript to pass it in. I'm only
mentioning it to dissuade you from considering it (if you were), as it
would be a huge security risk: Someone could send incorrect data to the
server, causing it to send out the wrong URLs. That would make for an
effective phishing campaign - emails from a legitimate source with links to
the cracker's server.
Best,
Chris

We just use a configuration property in our application that is stored in our
"properties" database table. So our solution really doesn't involve wicket
at all.

The reason I have implemented the hook:
Our users are using mod_proxy all the time
So port and context are might be changed and I need to get the base URL
after all these modifications (to create emails with links etc.)

Hi Maxim,
Maybe you might use something like this:
Url baseUrl = new Url(page.getRequestCycle().getUrlRenderer().getBaseUrl());
I used it to retrieve the relative url:
private static String getUrl(WebPage page)
{
Url pageUrl = Url.parse(page.urlFor(page.getClass(),
null).toString());
Url baseUrl = new
Url(page.getRequestCycle().getUrlRenderer().getBaseUrl());
baseUrl.resolveRelative(pageUrl);
return String.format("%s/%s", page.getRequest().getContextPath(),
baseUrl);
}
Best regards,
Sebastien.
