Field Detail

SERVICE_NAME

static final java.lang.String SERVICE_NAME

The name of the service to register as to be used as a "plugin" for the OSGi Manager (value is "javax.servlet.Servlet").

See Also:

Constant Field Values

PLUGIN_LABEL

static final java.lang.String PLUGIN_LABEL

The URI address label under which the OSGi Manager plugin is called by the OSGi Manager (value is "felix.webconsole.label").

This service registration property must be set to a single non-empty String value. Otherwise the Servlet services will be ignored by the Felix Web Console and not be used as a plugin.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

PLUGIN_TITLE

static final java.lang.String PLUGIN_TITLE

The title under which the OSGi Manager plugin is called by the OSGi Manager (value is "felix.webconsole.title").

For Servlet services not extending the AbstractWebConsolePlugin this property is required for the service to be used as a plugin. Otherwise the service is just ignored by the Felix Web Console.

For Servlet services extending from the AbstractWebConsolePlugin abstract class this property is not technically required. To support lazy service access, e.g. for plugins implemented using the OSGi Service Factory pattern, the use of this service registration property is encouraged.

Since:

2.0.0

See Also:

Constant Field Values

PLUGIN_CATEGORY

static final java.lang.String PLUGIN_CATEGORY

The category under which the OSGi Manager plugin is listed in the top navigation by the OSGi Manager (value is "felix.webconsole.category").

For Servlet services not extending the AbstractWebConsolePlugin this property is required to declare a specific category. Otherwise the plugin is put into the default category.

For Servlet services extending from the AbstractWebConsolePlugin abstract class this property is not technically required. To support lazy service access with categorization, e.g. for plugins implemented using the OSGi Service Factory pattern, the use of this service registration property is strongly encouraged. If the property is missing the AbstractWebConsolePlugin.getCategory() is called which should be overritten.

Since:

3.1.3; Web Console Bundle 4.0.2

See Also:

Constant Field Values

CONFIG_PRINTER_MODES

static final java.lang.String CONFIG_PRINTER_MODES

The property marking a service as a configuration printer. This can be any service having either a printConfiguration(PrintWriter) or printConfiguration(PrintWriter, String) method - this is according to the ConfigurationPrinter and ModeAwareConfigurationPrinter interfaces. If a service has a PLUGIN_LABEL, PLUGIN_TITLE and this property, it is treated as a configuration printer service.

Since:

3.1.2; Web Console Bundle 3.1.4

See Also:

Constant Field Values

CONFIG_PRINTER_WEB_UNESCAPED

static final java.lang.String CONFIG_PRINTER_WEB_UNESCAPED

Name of the optional service registration property indicating that a ConfigurationPrinter service will provide HTML output when used in web mode. If this property is set to true the configuration printer is expected to generate HTML output which will not be escaped. Otherwise output in web mode is escaped for plain text use.

Since:

3.1.2; Web Console Bundle 3.1.4

See Also:

Constant Field Values

PLUGIN_CSS_REFERENCES

static final java.lang.String PLUGIN_CSS_REFERENCES

The name of the service registration properties providing references to addition CSS files that should be loaded when rendering the header for a registered plugin.

This property is expected to be a single string value, array of string values or a Collection (or Vector) of string values.

This service registration property is only used for plugins registered as SERVICE_NAME services which do not extend the AbstractWebConsolePlugin. Extensions of the AbstractWebConsolePlugin should overwrite the AbstractWebConsolePlugin.getCssReferences() method to provide additional CSS resources.

Since:

2.0.0

See Also:

Constant Field Values

ATTR_APP_ROOT

static final java.lang.String ATTR_APP_ROOT

The name of the request attribute providing the absolute path of the Web Console root (value is "felix.webconsole.appRoot"). This consists of the servlet context path (from HttpServletRequest.getContextPath()) and the Web Console servlet path (from HttpServletRequest.getServletPath(), /system/console by default).

The type of this request attribute is String.

Since:

2.0.0

See Also:

Constant Field Values

ATTR_PLUGIN_ROOT

static final java.lang.String ATTR_PLUGIN_ROOT

The name of the request attribute providing the absolute path of the current plugin (value is "felix.webconsole.pluginRoot"). This consists of the servlet context path (from ServletRequest.getContextPath()), the configured path of the web console root (/system/console by default) and the plugin label PLUGIN_LABEL.

The type of this request attribute is String.

Since:

1.2.12

See Also:

Constant Field Values

ATTR_LABEL_MAP

static final java.lang.String ATTR_LABEL_MAP

The name of the request attribute providing a mapping of labels to page titles of registered console plugins (value is "felix.webconsole.labelMap"). This map may be used to render a navigation of the console plugins as the AbstractWebConsolePlugin.renderTopNavigation(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, java.io.PrintWriter) method does.

The type of this request attribute is Map<String, String>.

Since:

2.0.0

See Also:

Constant Field Values

ATTR_CONSOLE_VARIABLE_RESOLVER

static final java.lang.String ATTR_CONSOLE_VARIABLE_RESOLVER

The name of the request attribute holding the VariableResolver for the request (value is "felix.webconsole.variable.resolver").

Since:

3.0

See Also:

VariableResolver, WebConsoleUtil.getVariableResolver(javax.servlet.ServletRequest), WebConsoleUtil.setVariableResolver(javax.servlet.ServletRequest, VariableResolver), Constant Field Values

ATTR_LANG_MAP

static final java.lang.String ATTR_LANG_MAP

The name of the request attribute holding the language Map for the request (value is "felix.webconsole.langMap"). This map contains the web console supported languages, which are automatically detected. The keys of the map are the language codes, like "en", "en_US" .. and so-on. The value for each key is the locale user-friendly name - exactly the same as returned by Locale.getDisplayLanguage(). The automatic detection of languages is very simple. It relies on having a 'res/flags/[lang].gif' file in the bundle. So translators should not only provide localized l10n/bundle.properties but also a flag image. The image should be obtained from http://famfamfam.com/lab/icons/flags/ and eventually renamed to the correct locale.

3.1.2
