...
[15:13:40 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah that is very easy to do
[15:14:00 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> but doesn't that just help me construct a string like "/uPortal/api/...?"
[15:14:47 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> I wasn't thinking to make the code in the ApiInvokerImpl uP context specific... doesn't seem like it needs to be
[15:15:12 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so your client controller should be doing:
[15:15:12 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> invoke(req, res, "/api/person", params)
[15:15:54 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> then your SimpleCrossContextRestApiInvoker (lets assume portlet req/res) does:
[15:16:05 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> that would be uP specific i think, unless i did <property name="contextName">/uPortal</property>
[15:16:54 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> (on the SimpleCrossContextRestApiInvoker wiring)
[15:17:01 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> right
[15:17:04 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> it depends on your goals
[15:17:10 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> easy of config or portability
[15:17:17 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and if you want it callable just from portlets
[15:17:19 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> or from servlets too
[15:17:34 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> if you're talking portlets and easy of config
[15:17:47 CDT(-0500)] <drewwills> yeah let's see how it goes... with time comes greater clarity
[15:18:33 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> your invoker impl does:
[15:18:33 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> String portalContext = req.getProperty("org.jasig.portal.context_path");
[15:18:33 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ServletContext portalContext = injectedAppContext.getConext(portalContext);
[15:18:33 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> RequestDispatcher rd = portalContext.getRequestDispatcher(uri);
[15:19:01 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> where injectedAppContext is the ServletContext of the caller app injected via the constructor
