Category:Config

From JRapid

The <config> element is used to declare global statements. A global statement affects all HTML pages inside the project.

This element is commonly used to import Community Items like Widgets, Views and Transformers and external JavaScript and CSS files into the project.

Usage:

<config 
        ((usescript|usestylesheet|usewidget|useview|restrict)*)
/>

• <usescript>: used to call an external JavaScript file.
• <usestylesheet>: used to call an external CSS file.
• <useview>, <usewidget>: used to import either a View or Widget.
• <restrict>: used to add global security for all your HTML pages. This is a powerful feature for adding security to JRapid Webforms.

Web IDE:

The web IDE counts with a Config Editor where you can edit or add new JavaScript or CSS declarations.

Examples:

• Include a JavaScript file:

<app>
 ...
 <config>
     ...
     <usescript location="../js/scripts.js"/>
     ...
 </config>
 ...
</app>

• Include a CSS file:

<app>
 ...
 <config>
     ...
     <usestylesheet location="../css/styles.css"/>
     ...
 </config>
 ...
</app>

• Import Community items (View or Widget):

The <useview> and <usewidget> elements are automatically added to the <config> element after the first generation since the item is imported.

<app>
 ...
 <config>
     ...
     <useview ... />
     <usewidget ... />
     ...
 </config>
 ...
</app>

• Adding Basic Access Authentication to all the HTML pages in the project:

This is done by using the restriction element.

<config>
   ...
   <restrict authentication="basic"> 
      <allow privilege="ADMIN" />
      <user name="your_username" password="your_password" privileges="ADMIN" /> 
   </restrict>
   ... 
</config>
