-How to create a new Portlet ?
------------------------------
-
-**Portlets** are pluggable user interface software components that are managed and displayed in a web portal,
-for example an enterprise portal or a web CMS. A portlet can aggregate (integrate) and personalize content from
-different sources within a web page. A portlet responds to requests from a web client and generates dynamic content
-(*reference:* `Wiki portlet`_).
-
-.. _`wiki portlet`: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portlet
-
-
-**PyAMS Portal** provides the portal engine but only a very small set of predefined portlets that can be used to compose
-and organize the structure of a web page; additional portlets are provided by other packages, like
-:ref:`pyams_content`.
-
-
-1. Define portlet settings
-''''''''''''''''''''''''''
-
-Portlet settings interface are defined in ``interfaces.py``, you can use :py:class:`pyams_portal.interfaces.IPortletSettings`
-or extend the interface by adding additional properties for example:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- from zope.schema import Text
-
- NEW_PORTLET_NAME = 'new.portlet'
-
- class INewPortletSettings(IPortletSettings):
-
- comment = Text(title=_("Comment"),
- required=True)
-
-
-A :py:class:`pyams_portal.portlet.PortletSettings` persistent subclass then implements what IPortletSettings describes:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- @implementer(INewPortletSettings)
- class NewPortletSettings(PortletSettings):
- """Portlet settings"""
-
- comment = FieldProperty(INewPortletSettings['comment'])
-
-
-2. Create Portlet
-'''''''''''''''''
-
-The Portlet component is a utility, which implements the :py:class:`pyams_portal.interfaces.IPortlet` interface and is
-registered by the :py:func:`pyams_portal.portlet.portlet_config` decorator;
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- @portlet_config(permission=VIEW_PERMISSION)
- class ImagePortlet(Portlet):
- """Image portlet"""
-
- name = NEW_PORTLET_NAME
- label = _("New portlet")
-
- toolbar_image = None
- toolbar_css_class = 'fa fa-fw fa-2x fa-picture-o'
-
- settings_class = NewPortletSettings
-
-
-Where:
- - **permission**: permission required to display this portlet content
- - **name**: internal name given to this portlet. This name must be unique between all portlets, so using your own
- namespace into this name is generally a good option!
- - **label**: user label given to this portlet
- - **toolbar_image**: URL of an image used to display portlet button into ZMI toolbar, if any
- - **toolbar_css_class**: CSS class used to display portlet button into ZMI toolbar, if any
- - **settings_class**: class used to store portlet settings.
-
-3. Create portlet settings edit form
-''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
-
-Portlet settings have to be updated through management interface via a :py:class:`pyams_portal.zmi.portlet.PortletSettingsEditor`
-subform:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- @pagelet_config(name='properties.html', context=INewPortletSettings, layer=IPyAMSLayer,
- permission=VIEW_SYSTEM_PERMISSION)
- class NewPortletSettingsEditor(PortletSettingsEditor):
- """New portlet settings editor"""
-
- settings = INewPortletSettings
-
-
- @adapter_config(name='properties.json', context=(INewPortletSettings, IPyAMSLayer), provides=IPagelet)
- class NewPortletSettingsAJAXEditor(AJAXEditForm, NewPortletSettingsEditor):
- """New portlet settings editor, JSON renderer"""
-
-
-4. Previewing portlet content
-'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
-
-A *previewer* is used into ZMI to display portlet content into portal template definition page:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- @adapter_config(context=(Interface, IPyAMSLayer, Interface, INewPortletSettings), provides=IPortletPreviewer)
- @template_config(template='my-portlet-preview.pt', layer=IPyAMSLayer)
- class NewPortletPreviewer(PortletPreviewer):
- """New portlet previewer"""
-
-
-The previewer template is a Chameleon template:
-
-.. code-block:: genshi
+Extending PyAMS
+===============
-
-
- Comment
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-Here we check if portlet is visible or not to display a small icon when hidden; otherwise we display entered comment.
-
-
-5. Rendering portlet content
-''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
-
-A *renderer* is used to display portlet content into rendered page content:
-
-.. code-block:: python
+.. toctree::
+ :maxdepth: 1
- @adapter_config(context=(IPortalContext, IPyAMSLayer, Interface, INewPortletSettings), provides=IPortletRenderer)
- @template_config(template='my-portlet-render.pt', layer=IPyAMSLayer)
- class NewPortletRenderer(PortletRenderer):
- """New portlet renderer"""
-
- label = _("Default comment renderer")
-
-
-Each renderer template is also a Chameleon template:
-
-.. code-block:: genshi
-
-
-
-
-This is the configuration of a *default* renderer defined for this portlet; you can provide several renderers for a
-given portlet by given distinct names to the adapters:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- @adapter_config(name='another-renderer',
- context=(IPortalContext, IPyAMSLayer, Interface, INewPortletSettings), provides=IPortletRenderer)
- @template_config(template='my-portlet-render-2.pt', layer=IPyAMSLayer)
- class AnotherNewPortletRenderer(PortletRenderer):
- """Another new portlet renderer"""
-
- label = _("Another comment renderer")
