OXF Resource resolving
Locked
 
|
Hi All,
This is probably something obvious I'm missing here. I want to add some config value for use with the oxf:execute-processor into the properties.xml of my webapp like this <property as="xs:string" name="executable" value="oxf:/DoSomething.bat"/> Now in order for this to work with the oxf:execute-processor I would need to resolve the oxf:/ to the corresponding path in the filesystem, as just passing the read value from the properties.xml won't work. So my question is how do I resolve the read value "oxf:/DoSomething.bat" into the corresponding filepath (i.e. "D:\tomcat\webapps\appname\WEB-INF\resources\DoSomething.bat") ? kind regards René -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list.

René,
There was a discussion about how to get the servlet application context, but can't find/recall how that was resolved. How about trying the url-generator, which has a request-path and translated-path elements. You can subtract one string from the other. I have not tried this.... http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/processors-generators-request --Hank On Sep 24, 2008, at 6:21 AM, Rene Single wrote: > Hi All, > > This is probably something obvious I'm missing here. > > I want to add some config value for use with the oxf:execute- > processor into the properties.xml of my webapp like this > > <property as="xs:string" name="executable" value="oxf:/ > DoSomething.bat"/> > > Now in order for this to work with the oxf:execute-processor I > would need to resolve the oxf:/ to the corresponding path in the > filesystem, as just passing the read value from the properties.xml > won't work. > > So my question is how do I resolve the read value "oxf:/ > DoSomething.bat" into the corresponding filepath (i.e. "D:\tomcat > \webapps\appname\WEB-INF\resources\DoSomething.bat") ? > > > kind regards > > René > > -- > You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] > mailing list. > To unsubscribe: mailto:[hidden email] > For general help: mailto:[hidden email]?subject=help > OW2 mailing lists service home page: http://www.ow2.org/wws NEES@UCSB Institute for Crustal Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara 805-893-8042 -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list.

Are you changing the code and would like to read an additional configuration parameter and use it in your Java code?

I want to store the Information about the path to the executable within the properties.xml to have one central location for the config values of my App. The main reason I wanted to use oxf:/ for it was to have no path dependency on the executable, so it can be deployed on any kind of Installation without the need to configure this according to the Installation. For now I'm doing the following: - I just store the name of the App in the properties.xml (i.e. <property as="xs:string" name="executable" value="DoSomething.bat"/> ) - I install the executable getting called in a folder that is part of the PATH environment - I use the executeProcessor with <exec executable="VALUE_FROM_PROPERTIES.XML" resolveexecutable="true" searchpath="true"> <arg line="PARAM1 PARAM2"/> </exec> and this seems to work for now , but I really would love to get this to work with "oxf:/"... regards René -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list.

Can you maybe go into more detail what you had in mind ? I imagine youe meant: <p:processor name="oxf:url-generator"> <p:input name="config"> <config> <url>oxf:/DoSomething.bat</url> <content-type>application/octet-stream</content-type> </config> </p:input> <p:output name="data" id="exe-data"/> </p:processor> But then what ?

Hi René, I was passing along an idea, I admit I have not tested it. The idea is that <path-translated> is equivalent to the servlet API's ServletContext.GetRealPath() It appears to be this. OK, I just looked for it in the code and that is what it is. So, regardless of what the request is, you can find the absolute directory in your file system. You will need to remove the request-path from the path-translated to have the root directory of your deployment -- I think..... I hope that works, seemed like not to hard to test.

I'm just new to Orbeon and I have a (as far as I understand) similar question. I'm trying to use a custom css file in my form in order to have all my css in an external file instead of in a <style> tag. I added <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/myApp/myCss.css" /> in my view.xhtml and <files path-info="*.css"/> in my page-flow.xml. I tried using different combination of relative or absolute path, but it seems the css file is never found. Is there something I misinterpreted ? Where am I suppose to put my resource files such as myCss.css in order for orbeon to be able to resolve them ?

And I tried to use href="/orbeon/myApp/myCss.css", "/myApp/myCss.css" "myApp/myCss.css" "myCss.css", etc as well as the absolute path in my file system. The application never finds it and the css is not applied to the view.

In theory you can put them pretty much anywhere you want under your
resources, provided you: 1. have the proper rule in page-flow.xml 2. store the file in the proper place 3. refer to it using the proper path By default, the top-level page-flow.xml has this definition: <files path-info="(?!/([^/]+)/service/).+\.(gif|css|pdf|json|js|png| jpg|xsd|htc|ico|swf)" matcher="oxf:perl5-matcher"/> This just serves a whole bunch of files, including CSS files, provided they don't have the sub-path "/service/" in them. Now for example, Form Builder handles a form-builder.css file as follows: 1. stored under RESOURCES/forms/orbeon/builder/form-builder.css 2. referred to as: <xhtml:link rel="stylesheet" href="/forms/orbeon/builder/form- builder.css" type="text/css"/> And it works;-) -Erik On Sep 26, 2008, at 8:55 AM, Florian LACOSTE wrote: > Rene Single a écrit : >> Hi All, >> This is probably something obvious I'm missing here. >> I want to add some config value for use with the oxf:execute- >> processor into the properties.xml of my webapp like this >> <property as="xs:string" name="executable" value="oxf:/ >> DoSomething.bat"/> >> Now in order for this to work with the oxf:execute-processor I >> would need to resolve the oxf:/ to the corresponding path in the >> filesystem, as just passing the read value from the properties.xml >> won't work. >> So my question is how do I resolve the read value "oxf:/ >> DoSomething.bat" into the corresponding filepath (i.e. "D:\tomcat >> \webapps\appname\WEB-INF\resources\DoSomething.bat") ? > > Hi, > > I'm just new to Orbeon and I have a (as far as I understand) similar > question. > > I'm trying to use a custom css file in my form in order to have all > my css in an external file instead of in a <style> tag. > > I added > > <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/myApp/myCss.css" /> > > in my view.xhtml > > and > > <files path-info="*.css"/> > > in my page-flow.xml. > > > I tried using different combination of relative or absolute path, > but it seems the css file is never found. > > Is there something I misinterpreted ?
