Peter Parson created WICKET-5004:
------------------------------------
Summary: Add light-weight possibility to generate URLs from Page
and PageParameters without having the WebApplication actually running.
Key: WICKET-5004
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5004
Project: Wicket
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: wicket
Affects Versions: 6.5.0
Reporter: Peter Parson
In certain scenarios it is useful to be able to generate wicket URLs without
having the wicket application running, i.e. a mail notification system running
which needs to include dynamic URLs in the mails, or an XML sitemap generator
running on a different server.
With Wicket 1.3.x, this was an easy task: we just needed to (statically)
provide the UrlRequestCodingStrategy, the PageClass and PageParameters and any
other module depending on our wicket module could obtain the URLs.
With Wicket 6.x it's not so easy, it seems to be impossible without having the
application actually running. I have found the solution I have described here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13015743/how-to-obtain-wicket-url-from-pageclass-and-pageparameters-without-running-wicke
But this seems to be a little hacky, and causes problems if executed multiple
times (since the WebApplication is somewhere registered within the context, but
cannot be destroyed)
A code example from our old (1.3.x) solution, to give you an idea of what we
did.
We had a spring bean in our Wicket module which offered methods like this:
public String getUrlFor(MyDomainObject o) {
Class pClass = MyDomainObjectTargetPage.class;
PageParameters pp = MyDomainObjectTargetPage.pageParametersFor(o);
IRequestTargetUrlCodingStrategy urlCodingStragy =
MyDomainObjectTargetPage.URL_CODING_STRATEGY;
BookmarkablePageRequestTarget target = new
BookmarkablePageRequestTarget(pClass, pp);
return "/" + urlCodingStragy.encode(target).toString()
}
