2. Welcome! What is JSFTemplating? Creating Pages Additional Features Developer Tips Questions? Agenda

3. Welcome! Now why are you here? I'm interested in JSF JSFTemplating got my attention I want to talk Ajax Pizza! (Thanks Nike!) PJUG Meeting, I come no matter what

4. What is JSFTemplating? JSF Page Framework? JSF Renderer Framework? Both! Oh... and it's Open Source too. https://jsftemplating.dev.java.net

5. Quotes “This is going really fast and I may just drop my current JSF/Facelets implementation on the floor for JSFTemplating." "...developed a GUI in a couple hours that would had took a day in JSF... (interesting.)"

6. Key Features Multiple format support #include pageSession Events / Handlers Factories Inter-operates w/ JSP Better Performance Instant changes AJAX Support

7. High Level Overview Template-based description of Renderer or UIComponent tree Template becomes "LayoutElement" tree (meta- data) LayoutViewHandler creates UIComponent tree TemplateRenderer walks tree

8. HTML Page test.jsf Web Browser High Level Overview – Page UIComponen t Tree next.jsf

9. HTML Produced Renderer component.jsf Output Stream High Level Overview – Renderer LayoutElemen t Tree

10. How to create JSFTemplating pages 1) Setup standard JSF environment 2) Put jsftemplating.jar in WEB-INF/lib 3) Put.jsf files in docroot (or classpath) 4) Try out your new.jsf pages!

11. Hello World! “Hello World! ~ “HelloWorld.jsf” 1 line

12. DEMO Hello World!

13. Another Example Page " " You typed: #{in}, try typing: abc " Type something and click 'Go!' " Congratulations! You did it! " "

14. DEMO Example #2

15. Creating Pages No compile time Instant changes (Debug Mode) No JSP problems Events and handlers are available > (hint: “info.jsf” to see a list) #include files

16. DEMO #include

17. Page Session Session pageSession Request

18. DEMO pageSession

19. initPage beforeCreate / afterCreate beforeEncode / encode / afterEncode command decode + more Events

20. Handler example (defining) @Handler(id="getUserResponse", input={@HandlerInput(name="userInput", type=String.class)}, output={@HandlerOutput(name="response", type=String.class)}) public static void calculateResponse(HandlerContext context) { // Get the input String in = (String) context.getInputValue("userInput"); // Business logic String resp = "Type something and click 'Go!'"; if (in != null) { if (in.equals("abc")) { resp = "Congratulations, you did it!"; } else { resp = "You typed " + in + ", try typing 'abc'."; } } // Set the response context.setOutputValue("response", resp); }

21. Handler example (using) <!beforeEncode getUserResponse(usrInput=”#{in}” response=>$pageSession{resp}); println(value=”We responded with: #{resp}”); /> <!command getUserResponse(usrInput=”#{in}” response=>$pageSession{resp}); println(value=”We responded with: #{resp}”); />

22. DEMO events / handlers

23. “One thing I absolutely believe is a waste of space is how SJSC2 has create four.java files per page.” Quote

24. Chainable Reusable Mappable I/O > EL Enabled > Automatic type conversion > Required field checking Handlers Reduces the amount of Code

25. Q: How can I find out what handlers are available? What Handlers? A: info.jsf

26. DEMO info.jsf

27. Alternate approach to “binding” Parameterizable Allows you to “extend” components w/o extending > DropDown > Table > Tree ComponentFactory's

28. ComponentFactory Example @UIComponentFactory(“sun:button”) public class ButtonFactory extends ComponentFactoryBase { public UIComponent create(FacesContext ctx, LayoutComponent descriptor, UIComponent parent) { UIComponent comp = ctx.getApplication(). createComponent(“com.sun.webui.jsf.Button”); if (descriptor.getOption("primary") == null) { comp.setValueBinding("primary", context.getApplication(). createValueBinding("#{true}")); } if (parent != null) { addChild(ctx, descriptor, parent, comp); } setOptions(ctx, descriptor, comp); return comp; }

29. Yes (but you may not want to) Can I use JSF JSP's with JSFTemplating?

30. DEMO Speed Test

31. DEMO Ajax Demos

32. Set DEBUG to true: com.sun.jsftemplating.DEBUG true Set your Log level: Developer Tips

33. Pretty URLs Better jMaki support Additional component library support Future Features...
