Redirect from a portlet view to another portlet with RenderURL

[Corentin R, modificado 13 Anos atrás.]

Hi !

I'm new to portlet development but I think I'm missing some important point here

I would like to redirect from a portletA view (jsp) to another portlet (let's say it name in portlet.xml is portletNameB ).
To do so I tryed to redirect from the view of PortletA to the portletB with a renderURL like this :

<liferay-portlet:renderurl portletname="portletNameB_WARname" varimpl="redirectURL">
<liferay-portlet:param name="jspPage" value="/html/pathToJsp.jsp" />
</liferay-portlet:renderurl>
<aui:button value="redirectButton" onClick="<%=redirectURL.toString()%>" name="redirectButton" />

If I specify a windowState attribute to Exclusive or Maximize it correctly called the render method from my portletB and after that it displays the view.
Otherwise it will always call the render method from my portletA and displays the default view (my jspPage param seems to be lost)

Is it possible to use Normal Windows state to simply display in my portletA area the view of a portletB ?
Will the actionURL on my portletB view still working and calling actions of the portletB after redirection?

Thanks a lot for your help.

By the way I'm using liferay 6.0.6 and MVCPortlet if that could help...

And if I used

<liferay-portlet:actionurl name="methodB" portletname="portletNameB_WARname" varimpl="redirectURL"></liferay-portlet:actionurl>

instead of

<liferay-portlet:renderurl portletname="portletNameB_WARname" varimpl="redirectURL"></liferay-portlet:renderurl>

the methodB is called during actionPhase but during RenderPhase it's always the render method from PortletA wich will be called redirecting me to the the default view from portletA

Please help ...

Hi Corentin

You can try this Liferayurl to create the renderURL of the second portlet.

String portletName = "mysearchportlet";

	LiferayPortletURL secondURL = PortletURLFactoryUtil.create(request,
			portletName, plid, PortletRequest.RENDER_PHASE);

Hope this helps.

Hi Coretin,

I think that you could try the code that Mohammed has kindly suggested to you.

If it helps for me the <liferay-portlet:actionURL> tag its working. The only difference is that I am using struts2 for developing my portlets. You can take a look to this forum post

Hope it helps,

Luis

Mohammed, Luis thanks for your replies,
I've tryed both of your solutions but unfortunatly the link always get me back to the default view from my portlet without event calling the render method from my portletB...
But if I change the windowState to MAXIMIZED there it works
By the way Mohammed is it possible to call the PortletURLFactoryUtil.create with a portletName without any WAR reference in it and only the portlet name from portlet.xml?
In this case I supposed the portlet must be in the same WAR as the portlet from which it's called ?

Hi,

In that case you can try using this code

PortletURL myaccountURL = new PortletURLImpl(request, PortletKeys.MY_ACCOUNT, plid.longValue(), PortletRequest.RENDER_PHASE);
myaccountURL.setWindowState(WindowState.MAXIMIZED);
myaccountURL.setParameter("struts_action", "/my_account/view");

I had used this to call myaccount in my portlet

myaccountURL.setWindowState(WindowState.MAXIMIZED);
myaccountURL.setParameter("struts_action", "/my_account/view");

I had used this to call myaccount in my portlet

But in this case the portlet will be opened in maximized state...
And that's allready working in this case.
My problem occures when I try to call the view of a portlet B with a Normal WindowState from the view of a portlet A.
At this time I've not found another solution than extending portlet A from portlet B.

Hi,

I encountered the same windowstate problem in normal mode, it only renders in maximized state.

Did anyone found a solution to this issue ?

Hi please try,

Using JSR286 WebSphere Portal 6.1.

In JSR286 share parameters from a specific portlet to a specific set of other portlets using the setRenderParameter API. In JSR 168, It was only limited for the same portlet (not with others).

Try to use new WebSphere Portal 6.1 ....

Attribute portletName invalid for tag renderURL according to TLD
