Liferay7 with SpringMvc

Creating Spring Mvc Project in liferay 7

        First we need to download

            àLiferay 7 Bundle consist following things

àLiferay 7 Eclipse

Required software’s

        ->MSql 5.6+

        ->JDK1.8

       

Creating Project Step’s:

1.Open eclipse

2.Open Perspective and change to Liferay Workspace

3.Create the Workspace for your project.

        àOpen Package Explorer.

        àRight Click New-LiferayWorkspace Project.

        àEnter Workspace Name -next-Finish.

4.In create Package Explorer

        à Right Click New- Liferay Module Project.

        àType Project Name

        àSelect Build Type

                * gradle-module

        àSelect Project Template Name-(mvc-Portlet)

        àFinsh

5.In create Package Explorer(Creating Service)

        à Right Click New- Liferay Module Project.

        àType Project Name

        àSelect Build Type

                * gradle-module

        àSelect Project Template Name-(Service-builder)

        àFinsh

After clicking on finish the project structure will be as follow.

Example: Workspace-sample

                Potlet name – Admin

As shown in below image.

The above project gives the default structure of Liferay Mvc with build tool gradel

Now we need to convert the liferayMvc to Spring Mvc with gradel.

To convert from Liferay Mvc to SpringMvc we need all xml files with web.xml and other Required Folder Structure like Webapps,jsp and context file.

        We have To create a folder structure for spring mvc as folder structure should have its own webapp folder inside that css ,js and WEB-INF folder as to be created.

        Inside WEB-INF folder we need to declare all the xml files.

Like as follows.

1.Liferay-display.xml

2. liferay-plugin-package.properties

3. liferay-portlet.xml

4. portlet.xml

5. web.xml

With xml files we need to have some more folder structure also which are important.

        1.Jspà Where we should create all the jsp pages which are required for our project.

        2. Spring-ContextàThis folder we will be using to declared the Spring configuration details. I will be containing 2 files as flows.

 

In this Two class we will be declaring Spring Configuration and Bean tag.

build.gradle:

Gradle is an open source build automation system that builds upon the concepts of Apache Ant and Apache Maven and introduces a Groovy-based domain-specific language (DSL) instead of the XML form used by Apache Maven for declaring the project configuration.

In our Project we use WAR file.

buildscript {

           repositories {

           mavenLocal()

           maven {

Download all the library files which is mentioned above

First Page navigation:

          In controller we need to specify that when the porlet start which page has to be visible. This thing can be specified in Controller inside Giving @RenderMapping. Before that we need configure the controller with Annotation’s @Controller(value = "SpringMVCPortlet")

@RequestMapping("view") .

Loading 1^st view.jsp page we need to specify in RenderMapping.

Calling Action Method:

In jsp we need to give actionUrl Tag as shown below.

Handling in controller

In Liferay SpringMvc if we need to create Render Url 1^st step is we need to specify that Render method in jsp page before calling that page. After that we need to set that in   

                        “response.setParameter(“actiontype”,”MethodName”)”

After that we need to create the method.

Step1:

Step2:

Step3:

Creating a Site Programatically:

We can create the site programmatically by using following code.

View.jsp:

<%@ include file="init.jsp" %>

<%

     ThemeDisplay td = (ThemeDisplay) request.getAttribute(WebKeys.THEME_DISPLAY);

%>

<c:if test="<%=td.isSignedIn()%>">

<portlet:defineObjects />

<theme:defineObjects/>

<%

PortletPreferences commonpref = renderRequest.getPreferences();

String commonvalue = (String)commonpref.getValue("commonvalue", "Hello! Welcome to our portal.");

//Group group = (Group)request.getAttribute("site.group");

//Group liveGroup = (Group)request.getAttribute("site.liveGroup");

LayoutSetPrototype layoutSetPrototype = (LayoutSetPrototype)request.getAttribute("site.layoutSetPrototype");

//boolean showPrototypes = GetterUtil.getBoolean(request.getAttribute("site.showPrototypes"));

long companyid=company.getCompanyId();

String languageid=user.getLanguageId();

long liveGroupId = 0;

//Group group = (Group)request.getAttribute(WebKeys.);

List<Group> objgroup=GroupLocalServiceUtil.getGroups(0, GroupLocalServiceUtil.getGroupsCount());

Group group=objgroup.get(0);

long groupId = BeanParamUtil.getLong(group, request, "groupId");

//System.out.println("Here are group :"+group);

Group stagingGroup = null;

Group liveGroup = null;

if (group != null) {

    if (group.isStagingGroup()) {

        liveGroup = group.getLiveGroup();

        stagingGroup = group;

    }

    else {

        liveGroup = group;

        if (group.hasStagingGroup()) {

            stagingGroup = group.getStagingGroup();

        }

    }

}

    liveGroupId = liveGroup.getGroupId();

   /*  System.out.println("Here are livegroup id :"+liveGroupId);

    System.out.println("Here are companyid :"+companyid);

    System.out.println("Here are liveGroup :"+liveGroup);

    System.out.println("Here are groupId :"+groupId); */

    request.setAttribute("group", group);

Creating SiteForm:

        After creating form keeping that site id and site name we will create a from like which site need which jsp pages.in the form of Yes or No.

View.jsp:

<%@ include file="init.jsp" %>

<%@page import="com.liferay.portal.kernel.portlet.LiferayPortletMode"%>

<%@ taglib uri="http://liferay.com/tld/aui" prefix="aui" %>

String siteId=request.getParameter("siteId");

System.out.println("sitename : "+siteId);

%>

After creating site and site form we need to save the data in the database in liferay spring mvc it is recommended that not to LocalServiceUtill class rather than that we can use Service Tracker concept.

Service Tracker:

To implement a service tracker

To minimize the service tracker code, use a type-safe wrapper class that extends org.osgi.util.tracker.ServiceTracker. Your ServiceTracker takes two generic type parameters: the type of service being tracked, and the type of object being produced. In the present use case, both types are the same.

Create Separate class for each service tracker.

public class ServiceTrackerUtil extends

ServiceTracker<SiteFormLocalService, SiteFormLocalService> {

     public ServiceTrackerUtil(Object context) {

           super(FrameworkUtil.getBundle(context.getClass()).getBundleContext(),

                     SiteFormLocalService.class, null);

     } 

}

In controller class create init method inside that create an object of service tracker and open the tracker as shown below.

/*Service Tracker Objects*/

     public static ServiceTrackerUtil st=null;

     public static CounterServiceTracker counter = null;

     public static GroupServiceTracker group = null;

     public static LayoutSetServiceTracker layoutSet = null;

    

     @PostConstruct

     private void init() {

           System.out.println("Inside the init method");

           st =new ServiceTrackerUtil(this); 

           st.open();

          

           counter = new CounterServiceTracker(this);

           counter.open();

          

           group = new GroupServiceTracker(this);

           group.open();

          

           layoutSet = new LayoutSetServiceTracker(this);

           layoutSet.open();

     }

After that to call service tracker in method we need to create object again and open after that we can get the service

st =new ServiceTrackerUtil(this); 

           st.open();

          

           counter = new CounterServiceTracker(this);

           counter.open();

          

           CounterLocalService counterLocalService = counter.getService();

           SiteFormLocalService stieFormLocalService =st.getService();

SiteForm siteFrom = stieFormLocalService.createSiteForm(siteFormId);

            

After getting all the service class we need to close all the resouses using destroy method.

@PreDestroy

           public void destroy(){

                st.close();

                counter.close();

                group.close();

                layoutSet.close();

           }
