gCube Widgets Store

This page lists the available (reusable) GWT Widgets that developers can integrate in their GWT Projects/portlets if they need to.

Every Widget listed is provided with a screenshot and instructions on how to integrate it.

Available Widgets:

Select the Style

If you want to use the default style just skip this. If you want to use the GXT style instead you have to add the following directive to your WebApp main css stylesheet:

@import url('$MODULE_NAME/old-dialog.css');

Where $MODULE_NAME is the name of your gwt module: example:

if you open your gwt.xml file the module name is the value of the rename-to attribute

<module rename-to='myapplicationname'>

then you would add at the top of your application main css stylesheet the following:

@import url('myapplicationname/old-dialog.css');

Users Selection Dialog

Description:

Use this widget to display a dialog containing portal users from where one can choose. The widget allows you to provide the list of the users to display asynchronously and sends an event when a user is selected so that you can customize what to do in that case.

Screenshots:

Maven coordinates:

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.gcube.portlets.widgets</groupId>
	<artifactId>user-selection-dialog</artifactId>
	<version>LATEST</version>
</dependency>

Add the following to your project .gwt.xml file:'

	<inherits name='org.gcube.portlets.widgets.userselection.UserSelection' />

Please Note:

You will have to create your getUsers method in your servlet and pass it to the Widget. To get to know which user was selected listen for the {@link SelectedUserEvent} on the {@link HandlerManager} instance you pass to this widget.

You are ready to use it.

Pick User Widget

Description:

Use this widget to display a a dropdown user list you can attach to any textbox to make select portal users (typing @ sth or the char you like better to trigger it).
