Hi Ingo,
I see. You want the theme to "visit" every plugin to pick up ressources
which are meant to enhance the theme, right?
Thats interesting but - to my knowledge - not implemented or possible to
achieve OOTB. Sounds like a feature worth thinking about though.

:) That’s how I do it right now and it works - that’s fine.
Imagine I want to make the plugin availabe to the community. How will I do that? Upload
the plugin + theme override? I made friends with the idea of using "portlets"
for application dashboards. Defining them in one place and show them on different
places/applications. Makes a few things easier to deliver custumizations to my customers.
In my current case I need additional JS/CSS files required by some portlets.
Nevertheless I guess I have to use the theme override solutions right now.
Thanks for your time!!!
Best Regards,
Ingo

But... your plugin is a component as well, right? Just reference it like I
showed below.
Your plugin's ofbiz-component.xml starts with
<ofbiz-component name="my-plugin" ... location="webapp/my-plugin" ...
Your Javascript is in
plugins/my-plugin/webapp/my-plugin/vendors/myscript.js
You reference it as
<property name="VT_FTR_JAVASCRIPT['add']"
value="component://my-plugin/vendors/myscript.js" />
in your Theme.xml
All out of my mind but I think this should work. Did I miss something?

Hi Michael,
that’s what I already did - and yes it works. I am looking for a way to add js/css files
to the plugin and make it available in other application. Saying: "Common-theme here
are some additional files"
Something like:
<VisualThemeResource visualThemeId="COMMON_THEME" resourceTypeEnumId="VT_HDR_JAVASCRIPT"
sequenceId="12" resourceValue="/reporting/js/Chart.min.js"/>
<VisualThemeResource visualThemeId="COMMON_THEME"
resourceTypeEnumId="VT_STYLESHEET" sequenceId="10"
resourceValue="/reporting/css/Chart.min.css"/>
I have a plugin that provides two files - one css and one js. I would have to
create, role-out and maintain the additionial theme just for the purpose of
providing two files.
Best regards,
Ingo

Hi Ingo,
I'm not sure if I understand correctly, but you should be able to assign
ressources through a component reference.
Have you tried to use
<property name="VT_FTR_JAVASCRIPT['add']"
value="component://my-component/vendors/myspecialscript.js" />
<property name="VT_FTR_JAVASCRIPT['add']"
value="/my-theme/vendors/myscript.js" />
in your Theme.xml? This works OOTB with ftl files, should also work with
JavaScript, no?
HTH,

Hi Aditya,
I already create my own theme by extending an existing one. It works but I feel
quite uncomfortable by creating a new theme for the purpose of adding a single
.js file to an existing theme. I was hoping there would be a better solution
and handle those things via the plugin.
Thanks,
Ingo

Hi Ingo,
You may refer to documentation in themes.adoc[1]. Though I am not
sure if this is the right solution, maybe you can create your own
theme extending the existing one[2]

Hi everybody,
is it possible to add a javascript/css from an addon to an existing
backend theme.
Case: I have created a plugin that provides various reports via portlets.
Now I want to use the portlet logic to show those reports on
different places like accounting, catalog a.s.o. Therefore I want
the necessary JS/CSS files loaded for the whole theme - not for the plugin only.
Long time ago I would have added those scripts via
VisualThemeResource
:) If possible I do not want to touch the original theme and I want
to avoid creating a new plugin just for the purpose of providing those filed.
Every idea would be highly appreciated.
Best regards,
Ingo
