Send parameters to common cq dialog

Avatar

Level 2

Hi,

   I have a component with  a cq dialog with several tabs, they share the same content so i separate them. This is one of the tabs

<firstcardtab
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   jcr:title="First Card"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/section">
  <layout
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/layouts/fixedcolumns"
   margin="{Boolean}false"/>
  <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
  <column
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/container">
  <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
  <tabconfig jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/include"
   path="/components/content/homepage/featurededcthoughtleadership/cq:dialog/tabs/content" />
  </items>
  </column>
  </items>
</firstcardtab>

I have a select with cq-dialog-dropdown-showhide so I need to send a parameter in order to call the JS function with a different name, otherwise it will show and hide the options in the other tabs:

<cardType
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/form/select"
   class="cq-dialog-dropdown-showhide"
   cq-dialog-dropdown-showhide-target=".ftl-cardtype-showhide-target-1"
   fieldDescription="Determines the type of card to display."
   fieldLabel="Card Type"
   name="./cardtype">
  <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
  <pullFromMostRecentOpt
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   text="Pull from most recent"
   value="pullfrommostrecent"/>
  <customAuthorOpt
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   text="Choose what to display"
   value="customauthor"/>
  </items>
</cardType>
<pullFromMostRecent
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/container"
   class="hide ftl-cardtype-showhide-target-1 foundation-layout-util-vmargin"
   showhidetargetvalue="pullfrommostrecent">
  <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
  <noConfigNeeded
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/text"
   text="Configuration is not required for this card type"
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"/>
  </items>
</pullFromMostRecent>
<customAuthor
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/container"
   class="hide ftl-cardtype-showhide-target-1 foundation-layout-util-vmargin"
   showhidetargetvalue="customauthor">
  <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
  <title
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
   fieldLabel="Title"
   fieldDescription="Text shown on the main screen"
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   name="./title"/>
  <position
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/numberfield"
   fieldLabel="Position"
   fieldDescription="1: largest card, 2: left standard card, 3: right standard card, 4: first list card, 5: second list card.."
   min="1"
   max="7"
   name="./position"/>
  <url
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="/libs/granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/pathfield"
   fieldLabel="Link url"
   fieldDescription="Select page url"
   rootPath="/content/"
   name="./url"
   required="{Boolean}false"/>
  <externaldate
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/datepicker"
   fieldLabel="Article Date"
   fieldDescription="Optional article date, if blank no date will be displayed."
   name="./externalDate"/>
  <image
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/fileupload"
   allowUpload="{Boolean}false"
   autoStart="{Boolean}true"
   class="cq-droptarget"
   fieldDescription="Image to show."
   fieldLabel="Image"
   fileNameParameter="./externalImageName"
   fileReferenceParameter="./externalImageReference"
   mimeTypes="[image]"
   multiple="{Boolean}false"
   name="./externalImage"
   title="Upload Image Asset"
   uploadUrl="${suffix.path}"
   useHTML5="{Boolean}true"
   required="{Boolean}false"/>
  <alt
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
   fieldLabel="Image alternate text"
   fieldDescription="Image alternate text."
   name="./externalImageAlt"/>

How do I send the parameters to this other file in common, something like this:

<tabconfig jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/include"
   path="/components/content/homepage/featurededcthoughtleadership/cq:dialog/tabs/content @parameterfortab1" />

ANd how do I receive it?

Thanks,

Team replied --

1. add a simple custom include resource type based on /libs/granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/include/include.jsp, say /apps/my-project/include/include.jsp

2. pass the parameters

<myTas
   
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   
sling:resourceType="
/apps/my-project/include"
   
path="/my/path/to/include?param1=value1&param2=value2"
/>

3. in /apps/my-project/include/include.jsp, get the path and parameters

4. use request dispatcher to include the path..
