So as some of you may know I've been updating the Grails Wicket plug-in.
There is quite a few users on the Grails list who have shown interest in it
and the ability to use a component framework backed onto the rest of the
Grails stack (GORM, transactional services, plugin system etc.)
However, the plugin provides a very basic level of integration and I was
thinking it would be nice to create a Groovy DSL for Wicket. I looked into
the WicketBuilder, but really I think we can take this further. So based on
the example here:
http://www.theserverside.com/tt/articles/article.tss?l=IntroducingApacheWicket
I came up with the below syntax to represent this application (note i havent
actually implemented anything yet this is just a syntax proposal).
Thoughts/feedback/suggestions welcome:
class BasePage extends BuildablePage {
public build() {
stylesheet "main"
panel "searchPanel" {
form "searchForm" {
def model = [:]
bookmarkablePageLink "addContact", EditContact
textField "searchString", model:model
onSubmit {
redirect page:ListContacts, [searchString:
model.searchString]
}
}
}
}
}
class ListContacts extends BasePage {
public build() {
super.build();
def contactsModel = {
Contact.findByNameLike("%${params.searchString}%") } as
LoadableDetachableModel
listView "contacts", contactsModel { item ->
def view = link( "view", item.model ) {
onClick {
redirect page:new ViewContact(item.model.id)
}
}
view << label("firstName", new PropertyModel(item.model,
"firstName"))
view << label("lastName", new PropertyModel(item.model,
"lastName"))
item << view
item << link("edit", item.model) {
onClick {
redirect page:new EditContact(model.id)
}
}
item << link("delete", item.model) {
onClick {
item.model.delete()
redirect page:ListContacts
}
}
}
}
}
