Have root URL render some page other than the "index" page

[Pratik Patel <pr...@semandex.net>]

Hi All,

Is it possible to override the behavior of tapestry so that root URL
renders some page "foo" instead of "index"?

If some URL is not found then tapestry renders index page. I want to
override this behavior so that instead of "index" page, it renders page
"foo". How can I achieve this?

Thanks,
Pratik

I am pretty sure that SymbolConstants are  version 5.3 and probably even in
5.0. Anyway you need to put contribution "tapestry.start-page-name" in your
app module class (usually called AppModule if you use default Tapestry
settings in web.xml):

public static void contributeApplicationDefaults(MappedConfiguration<String,
Object> configuration) {
        configuration.add("tapestry.start-page-name", "foo");
   }

Thanks. I am using version 5.3.8 which does not have class SymbolConstants.
I tried passing following context-param through web.xml but that is not
working either.

        <context-param>
<param-name>tapestry.start-page-name</param-name>
<param-value>foo</param-value>
</context-param>

You can use contribute symbol "tapestry.start-page-name" (see
org.apache.tapestry5.SymbolConstants#START_PAGE_NAME), e.g. by adding such
method in your AppModule class:

    public static void
contributeApplicationDefaults(MappedConfiguration<String, Object>
configuration) {
        configuration.add(SymbolConstants.START_PAGE_NAME, "foo");
   }
