Insert a liferay portlet into Primeface dialog

[Rounak Dasgupta, módosítva 10 év-val korábban]

Hi all,

I'm using liferay 6.1, jsf 2 and primeface 4.0. I've two different project running on a liferay tomcat. I want to insert a portlet of "Project 1" into primefaces dialog of "project 2".

I tried by using ui:insert, but it takes the source path of current project. Can anyone give a suggestion how to proceed in this scenario?

Thanks in advance.

If you are using JSF 2.1, then I think you would need to develop a monolithic WAR project that contains two portlets, rather than two separate WAR projects each containing a single portlet.

If you are using JSF 2.2, then you might be able to utilize the Resource Library Contracts feature.

Hi Neil,

I'm using jsf2.1. Actually both project having 12-15 portlet. And I want to reuse only one portlet in another project. So creating a different war, I think will not be a good idea in my scenario.

There is a liferay-portlet:runtime JSP tag that comes with Liferay Portal. However, we don't have a Facelets equivalent of this tag at this time in Liferay Faces.

If you look at the Liferay Portal 6.2 source code for RuntimeTag.java, it ends up calling the following utility method:

PortletContainerUtil.render(request, response, portlet);

(Prior to Liferay 6.2, I think this was called RuntimePortletUtil)

I don't know if this will work, but you might be able to call this method using the request/response that come from PortalUtil.getHttpServletRequest(PortletRequest) and PortalUtil.getHttpServletResponse(PortletResponse) in order to get the other portlet to render.

How do you call the Portlet from the JSF? Which tag?

Thanks

At this time, there is no Facelet component tag for doing this. I suppose that you could develop a new Java-based custom component, then inside the custom Java-based Renderer, you can try calling PortletContainerUtil.render(request, response, portlet).
