In this tutorial, we will following the guideline of developing a plugin to develop our File Link Datalist Formatter. Please also refer to the very first tutorial 如何开发一个Bean Shell Hash Variable插件 for more details steps.
We have a file uploaded using File Upload field in form. We want to show the file name as a link to download the file in our datalist.
We can develop a Datalist Column Formatter插件 to convert the value to a link.
The file download link format of Joget Workflow is
在本教程中,我们将遵循开发插件 来开发我们的File Link Datalist格式化器的 指导原则。 有关更多详细信息步骤,请参阅第一个教程 如何开发一个Bean Shell哈希变量插件。
我们有一个文件上传使用文件上传领域的形式。我们想要显示文件名作为链接来下载我们的数据列表中的文件。
我们可以开发一个 Datalist Column Formatter插件将这个值转换成一个链接。
Joget Workflow的文件下载链接格式是
/jw/web/client/app/{appId}/{appVersion}/form/download/{formId}/{recordId}/{fileName}.?attachment=true
Sample例如:
http://localhost:8080/jw/web/client/app/test/1/form/download/testFile/f6946830-c0a80070-48cad9b7-8b971682/CHANGES.txt.?attachment=true
From the link format, we need to get the following information from admin user.
The file name is displayed as a link in Datalist.
We can refer to the File Upload Field on how to generate the download link of the file.
从链接格式,我们需要从管理员用户获得以下信息。
文件名在Datalist中显示为链接。
我们可以参考文件上传字段来了解如何生成文件的下载链接。
我们需要始终准备好Joget Workflow Source Code,并按照这个指导方针建立起来 。
本教程的以下内容是使用Macbook Pro和Joget源代码5.0.0版编写的。 其他平台命令请参考 如何开发插件。
让我们说我们的文件夹目录如下。

We need to always have our Joget Workflow Source Code ready and builded by following this guideline.
The following of this tutorial is prepared with a Macbook Pro and Joget Source Code version 5.0.0. Please refer to 如何开发插件 for other platform command.
Let said our folder directory as following.

- joget
- plugins
- jw-community
-5.0.0 |
The "plugins" directory is the folder we will create and store all our plugins and the "jw-community" directory is where the Joget Workflow Source code stored.
Run the following command to create a maven project in "plugins" directory.
“plugins”目录是我们要创建和存储我们所有插件的文件夹,“jw-community”目录是Joget Workflow源代码存储的地方。
运行以下命令在“plugins”目录下创建一个maven项目。

Then, the shell script will ask us to key in a version for your plugin and ask us for confirmation before generate the maven project.
然后,shell脚本将要求我们为您的插件输入一个版本,并在生成maven项目之前要求我们确认。

We should get "BUILD SUCCESS" message shown in our terminal and a "file我们应该在终端显示“BUILD SUCCESS”消息,在“plugins”文件夹中创建一个“file_link_datalist_formatter" folder created in "plugins" folder.formatter”文件夹。
用你喜欢的IDE打开maven项目。我将使用 NetBeans。 Open the maven project with your favour IDE. I will be using NetBeans.
...
在“org.joget.tutorial”包下创建一个“FileLinkDatalistFormatter”类。然后,使用Create a "FileLinkDatalistFormatter" class under "org.joget.tutorial" package. Then, extend the class with org.joget.apps.datalist.model.DataListColumnFormatDefault abstract class. Please refer to 抽象类来扩展 该类。 请参阅 Datalist Column Formatter插件.。
...
像往常一样,我们必须执行所有的抽象方法。我们将使用AppPluginUtil.getMessage方法来支持i18n,并使用常量变量MESSAGE_PATH作为消息资源包目录。As usual, we have to implement all the abstract methods. We will using AppPluginUtil.getMessage method to support i18n and using constant variable MESSAGE_PATH for message resource bundle directory.

Then, we have to do a UI for admin user to provide inputs for our plugin. In getPropertyOptions method, we already specify our 插件属性选项与配置 definition file is locate at "/properties/fileLinkDatalistFormatter.json". Let us create a directory "resources/properties" under "file_然后,我们必须为管理员用户提供一个UI来为我们的插件提供输入。在getPropertyOptions方法中,我们已经指定了 插件属性选项和配置 定义文件位于“/properties/fileLinkDatalistFormatter.json”。让我们在“file_link_datalist_formatter / src / main”目录下创建一个目录“resources / main" directory. After create the directory, create a file named "fileLinkDatalistFormatter.json" in the "properties" folder.
In the properties definition options file, we will need to provide options as below. Please note that we can use "@@message.key@@" syntax to support i18n in our properties options.
properties”。创建目录后,在“properties”文件夹中创建一个名为“fileLinkDatalistFormatter.json”的文件。
在属性定义选项文件中,我们需要提供如下的选项。请注意,我们可以在我们的属性选项中使用“@@ message.key @@”语法来支持i18n。

我们的插件使用orgOur plugin is using org.displaytag.util.LookupUtil and class, it required displaytag and jsp-api library. So, we have to add it to our POM file.LookupUtil和类,它需要displaytag和jsp-api库。所以,我们必须将其添加到我们的POM文件。

We are using i18n message key in getLabel and getDescription method. We also used i18n message key in our properties options definition as well. So, we will need to create a message resource bundle properties file for our plugin.

我们在getLabel和getDescription方法中使用i18n消息密钥。我们还在我们的属性选项定义中使用了i18n消息密钥。所以,我们需要为我们的插件创建一个消息资源包属性文件。
在“file_link_datalist_formatter / src / main”目录下创建目录“resources / messages”。然后,在该文件夹中创建一个“FileLinkDatalistFormatter.properties”文件。在属性文件中,让我们添加所有的消息键和它的标签如下。Create directory "resources/messages" under "file_link_datalist_formatter/src/main" directory. Then, create a "FileLinkDatalistFormatter.properties" file in the folder. In the properties file, let add all the message keys and its label as below.

然后,让插件jar上传到 管理插件。上传jar文件后,仔细检查插件是否正确上传和激活。
在userview中创建一个CRUD来测试我们的插件。在列表中,让我们配置文件上传字段列如下。Let create a CRUD in userview to test our plugin. In list, let configure the File Upload field column as following.
