#** * spring.vm * * This file consists of a collection of Velocity macros aimed at easing * some of the common requirements of web applications - in particular * handling of forms. * * Spring's Velocity support will automatically make this file and therefore * all macros within it available to any application using Spring's * VelocityConfigurer. * * To take advantage of these macros, the "exposeSpringMacroHelpers" property * of the VelocityView class needs to be set to "true". This will expose a * RequestContext under the name "springMacroRequestContext", as needed by * the macros in this library. * * @author Darren Davison * @author Juergen Hoeller * @since 1.1 *# #** * springMessage * * Macro to translate a message code into a message. *# #macro( springMessage $code )$springMacroRequestContext.getMessage($code)#end #** * springMessageText * * Macro to translate a message code into a message, * using the given default text if no message found. *# #macro( springMessageText $code $text )$springMacroRequestContext.getMessage($code, $text)#end #** * springUrl * * Takes a relative URL and makes it absolute from the server root by * adding the context root for the web application. *# #macro( springUrl $relativeUrl )$springMacroRequestContext.getContextPath()${relativeUrl}#end #** * springBind * * Exposes a BindStatus object for the given bind path, which can be * a bean (e.g. "person") to get global errors, or a bean property * (e.g. "person.name") to get field errors. Can be called multiple times * within a form to bind to multiple command objects and/or field names. * * This macro will participate in the default HTML escape setting for the given * RequestContext. This can be customized by calling "setDefaultHtmlEscape" * on the "springMacroRequestContext" context variable, or via the * "defaultHtmlEscape" context-param in web.xml (same as for the JSP bind tag). * Also regards a "springHtmlEscape" variable in the template context. * * Producing no output, the following context variable will be available * each time this macro is referenced: * * $status : a BindStatus instance holding the command object name, * expression, value, and error codes and messages for the path supplied * * @param $path : the path (string value) of the value required to bind to. * Spring defaults to a command name of "command" but this can be overridden * by user config. *# #macro( springBind $path ) #if("$!springHtmlEscape" != "") #set( $status = $springMacroRequestContext.getBindStatus($path, $springHtmlEscape) ) #else #set( $status = $springMacroRequestContext.getBindStatus($path) ) #end #end #** * springBindEscaped * * Similar to springBind, but takes an explicit HTML escape flag rather * than relying on the default HTML escape setting. *# #macro( springBindEscaped $path $htmlEscape ) #set( $status = $springMacroRequestContext.getBindStatus($path, $htmlEscape) ) #end #** * springFormInput * * Display a form input field of type 'text' and bind it to an attribute * of a command or bean. * * @param path the name of the field to bind to * @param attributes any additional attributes for the element (such as class * or CSS styles or size * *# #macro( springFormInput $path $attributes ) #springBind($path) $!status.value #end #** * springFormSingleSelect * * Show a selectbox (dropdown) input element allowing a single value to be chosen * from a list of options. * * The null check for $status.value leverages Velocity's 'quiet' notation rather * than the more common #if($status.value) since this method evaluates to the * boolean 'false' if the content of $status.value is the String "false" - not * what we want. * * @param path the name of the field to bind to * @param options a map (value=label) of all the available options * @param attributes any additional attributes for the element (such as class * or CSS styles or size *# #macro( springFormSingleSelect $path $options $attributes ) #springBind($path) #end #** * springFormMultiSelect * * Show a listbox of options allowing the user to make 0 or more choices from * the list of options. * * @param path the name of the field to bind to * @param options a map (value=label) of all the available options * @param attributes any additional attributes for the element (such as class * or CSS styles or size *# #macro( springFormMultiSelect $path $options $attributes ) #springBind($path) #end #** * springFormRadioButtons * * Show radio buttons. * * @param path the name of the field to bind to * @param options a map (value=label) of all the available options * @param separator the html tag or other character list that should be used to * separate each option. Typically ' ' or '
' * @param attributes any additional attributes for the element (such as class * or CSS styles or size *# #macro( springFormRadioButtons $path $options $separator $attributes ) #springBind($path) #foreach($option in $options.keySet()) ' * @param attributes any additional attributes for the element (such as class * or CSS styles or size *# #macro( springFormCheckboxes $path $options $separator $attributes ) #springBind($path) #foreach($option in $options.keySet()) '. * @param classOrStyle either the name of a CSS class element (which is defined in * the template or an external CSS file) or an inline style. If the value passed in here * contains a colon (:) then a 'style=' attribute will be used, else a 'class=' attribute * will be used. *# #macro( springShowErrors $separator $classOrStyle ) #foreach($error in $status.errorMessages) #if($classOrStyle == "") ${error} #else #if($classOrStyle.indexOf(":") == -1) #set($attr="class") #else #set($attr="style") #end ${error} #end ${separator} #end #end #** * springCloseTag * * Simple macro to close an HTML tag that has no body with '>' or '/>', * depending on the value of a 'springXhtmlCompliant' variable in the * template context. *# #macro( springCloseTag )#if($springXhtmlCompliant)/>#else>#end #end
