Hello,
I have a large project that I am upgrading from Wicket 6 to Wicket 8. Yes,
it's fairly old. As I am working through the various changes one issue has
stumped me.
With Wicket 8, my javascript/CSS resources that are added to my
WicketApplication are no longer being automatically added to my wicket
pages.
In my project there are helper classes where a number of resources are
defined. Examples of these helper classes are as follows:
public class JS {
public static final JavaScriptResourceReference JQUERY_UI = jquery(
JS.class, "jquery-ui.min.js" );
public static final JavaScriptResourceReference D3 = new
JavaScriptResourceReference( JS.class, "d3.min.js" );
public static void initChartJSBundle( Application wicketApp ) {
return wicketApp.getResourceBundles().addJavaScriptBundle(
JS.class, "chart.js", JQUERY_UI, D3);
}
}
public class CSS {
public static final CssResourceReference ICONS = css( "icons/icons.css" );
public static void initCSSResources( WebApplication wicketApp ) {
wicketApp.mountResource( "css/icons.css", CSS.ICONS );
}
}
Normally, widely used resources are added to my Wicket Application by
making calls to these helper classes in the init():
public abstract class MyApplication extends WebApplication {
public MyApplication() { }
@Override
public void init() {
JS.initChartJSBundle( this );
CSS.initCSSResources( this );
}
}
I'm aware that resources are typically added to pages/components by
overriding the renderHead() method. I am in fact doing this for resources
that are specific to particular pages. However, for widely used resources,
the above example is all that was required for my Wicket 6 project to make
resources available and automatically included as headers on my Wicket
Pages. This does not seem to be the case with Wicket 8 as my resources are
not being included on any rendered pages. I have scoured the changelogs for
Wicket 8 and haven't found anything referring to the changes with resource
management.
Is there something I'm missing? Is the Wicket 6 behaviour something that
was removed over a preferred method for resource management? If so, what is
this method?
Thanks,
