Precondition[edit]
CSS/JS resources in the presentation layer are maintained redundantly across solutions. As GUI 2.0 is common for all solutions it can be maintained and deployed in a more common manner to prevent diverging sources.
Places[edit]
As to solution specific needs resources will be stored in two places with the following structure.
Solution Specific GUI Resources[edit]
Each svn project keeps a part of it's presentation (JS won't be separated to avoid cross side scripting)
/$solution$_presentation/src/main/webapp/resources
The foldes should look like that (pls. merge additional image/script locations to what is documented here):
- resources -- commonJavaScript (should be kept in synch with other solutions) --- componentJavaScript (contains JS used in common components) --- externalJavaScript (3rd party JS resoures) --- jquery (The jQuery framework) --- eSciDoc_javascript.js: Installs component scripts and holds general JS --- main.js: Loads main functions -- $solution$Images (contains overrides for images used by solutions only: static Startpage Images, Logos, ...) --- ... --- ... -- $solution$JavaScript (contains solution specific JS plus plugins, if only used here) --- ... --- ...
The common part of the presentation will be stored here: https://subversion.mpdl.mpg.de/repos/common/trunk/common_services/common_presentation/
New Common GUI Resources[edit]
-- cssFramework (contains the css for all solutions)
--- componentCSS (e.g. css for list display)
--- globalCSS (framework core, standard element sizes)
--- globalImages (images valid for all solutions (e.g. eSciDoc Logo), may get overridden by solution specific stuff)
--- themes (themes and standard skins are all stored here, and will be deployed as needed)
---- skin_skin1 (contains logo, icons as well)
----- images (icon library)
----- styles (appearance layer)
---- skin_skin2
----- images (icon library)
----- styles (appearance layer)
---- skin_ ...
----- images (icon library)
----- styles (appearance layer)
The following folders are decrepated and will be replaced:
- eSciDoc_CSS_v2/
- favicon.ico
- images/ (??)
- skins/
Builds[edit]
Common presentation will be defined as dependency.
JavaScript Strategy[edit]
If dynamic patterns are needed UIE checks http://livedemo.exadel.com/richfaces-demo/richfaces/actionparam.jsf?s=darkX to suggest one. If feasability is given, an overwrite style will be written to extend css:
/componentCSS/externalOverrides_js.css.
