Class AbstractAuthoringUiComponent

java.lang.Object
  info.magnolia.module.templatingcomponents.components.AbstractAuthoringUiComponent

All Implemented Interfaces:

AuthoringUiComponent

Direct Known Subclasses:

EditBar, NewBar, PageEditBar, SingletonParagraphBar

public abstract class AbstractAuthoringUiComponent
extends java.lang.Object
implements AuthoringUiComponent

Common subclass for ui components, provides utility methods and defaults. Implementations should expose setter methods for their specific parameters (so that template-specific wrappers can set parameters). (no need to clutter things up with getters). Implementation might also expose static factory methods, which can take care of default values, i.e for labels.

Constructor Summary

protected

AbstractAuthoringUiComponent(ServerConfiguration server, AggregationState aggregationState)

Method Summary

protected java.lang.String	asString(java.util.List<java.lang.String> strings) Utility method - our current gui components (magnolia-gui) expect comma separated strings.
protected Content	currentContent() Returns the "current content" from the aggregation state.
protected abstract void	doRender(java.lang.Appendable out)
protected AggregationState	getAggregationState()
protected java.lang.String	getI18BasenameFor(Content content)
protected java.lang.String	getMessage(Content context, java.lang.String key) The given node, if it has a mgnl:template property in it's metadata, will be used in conjunction with TemplateManager and ParagraphManager to figure out the i18nBasename to use to translate this key.
protected java.lang.String	getMessage(java.lang.String basename, java.lang.String key)
protected ServerConfiguration	getServer()
void	postRender() Override this method if you need to "do something" once the component is rendered, i.e cleanup the context.
void	render(java.lang.Appendable out)
protected boolean	shouldRender() Override this method if the component needs to be rendered under different conditions.
