WCP12c: Embed a Login Task Flow in a Page or Page Template

Recently I saw a question in OTN: Oracle WebCenter Portal on how you can embed a Login into a Page or Page Template.


You can find the code in my GitHub repository: https://github.com/DanielMerchan/WebCenterExtensions

There are many ways to do this, but in this post I will bring only two:
  • Using Internal API: It uses some available Manage Beans in the Portal Scope for supporting authentication. This API is compatible with OAM / WebLogic Authentication.
  • Using Java EE API: It uses the HttpServletRequest login method to perform WebLogic Authentication. Since 12c, the AutheticationServlet.login of the WebLogic API has been deprecated. It can be uses standard JAAS Authentication.
The LoginInternalAPI Task Flow implements the first approach and the LoginJavaAPI Task Flow implements the second approach using a custom backing bean.

For testing, you can add the Task Flow to the Portal Resource Catalog and add it to a WebCenter Portal Page.

If you want to use it in your Page Template in Design Time, just embed the af:region and register manually the binding in its corresponding Page Definition.

More details in the Readme of my GitHub.

OJET: Inter-Module communication in TypeScript Template

Image
In this post I bring another example on how to Communicate Modules using the Oracle JET - TypeScript Template based on the Oracle JET Cookbook: InterModule Communication From now and so on will create multiple examples using TypeScript for those who are not familiar with it and wants to turn the Cookbook examples into TypeScript :). The example ( ojet-typescript-list-detail ) can be found as usual in my GitHub repository: https://github.com/DanielMerchan/ojet-examples This example is a bit different compared to the Cookbook example where the modules are not running at the same time within a Module. This example is built as described in the following images: Customers module acts as the Wrapper Module. It coordinates when to load the list and detail modules. Customers module makes use also of signals npm module for communication between Customers-List, Customers-Detail. Explanation of the Example customers.js is the coordinator responsible module for: initiali

OJET: Build and Deploy in an Application Server

Image
There are some other sources where an Oracle JET Application is packaged and deployed as a WAR in Oracle WebLogic Application Server (Arda Eralp) https://blogs.oracle.com/ardaeralp/deploy-oracle-jet-application-to-weblogic-server (Andrejus Baranovski's) http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2016/07/serving-oracle-jet-application-from.html They may look bit old or maybe because they call directly grunt tasks by using the grunt-cli . In this post I will update a bit these posts in Oracle JET 6.1.0 and the usage of ojet build (instead of calling the grunt tasks) for also building the corresponding WAR file. The example can be found in my GIT repository: https://github.com/DanielMerchan/ojet-examples Let's start... Install grunt-war module in your Oracle JET Application. npm install grunt-war --save-dev Create a war.js (or call it whatever you want) in /scripts/grunt/config folder under your souce files. This is a sample code inside of it, check https://www.npmjs.com/packag

OJET: Select All options using only Checkboxset

Image
This is an example on how to select all other options by using another oj-checkboxset. GitHub: ojet-checkbockset-select-all The idea is to keep track of the selection and make use of the on-value-changed as described in the following code. self.colorOptions = ko.observableArray([ { id: "blueopt", value: "blue", color: "Blue" }, { id: "greenopt", value: "green", color: "Green" }, { id: "redopt", value: "red", color: "Red" }, { id: "limeopt", value: "lime", color: "Lime" }, { id: "aquaopt", value: "aqua", color: "Aqua" }, ]); self.selectAll = ko.observableArray([]); self.currentColor = ko.observableArray(["red"]); self.selectAllOptionChanged = (event) => { const newSelection = event.detail.value; if (newSelection.indexOf('all')
