package org.joget.tutorial;
import org.joget.apps.app.service.AppPluginUtil;
import org.joget.apps.app.service.AppUtil;
import org.joget.apps.datalist.model.DataList;
import org.joget.apps.datalist.model.DataListColumn;
import org.joget.apps.datalist.model.DataListColumnFormatDefault;
public class FileLinkDatalistFormatter extends DataListColumnFormatDefault {
private final static String MESSAGE_PATH = "messages/FileLinkDatalistFormatter";
public String getName() {
return "File Link Datalist Formatter";
}
public String getVersion() {
return "5.0.0";
}
public String getClassName() {
return getClass().getName();
}
public String getLabel() {
//support i18n
return AppPluginUtil.getMessage("org.joget.tutorial.FileLinkDatalistFormatter.pluginLabel", getClassName(), MESSAGE_PATH);
}
public String getDescription() {
//support i18n
return AppPluginUtil.getMessage("org.joget.tutorial.FileLinkDatalistFormatter.pluginDesc", getClassName(), MESSAGE_PATH);
}
public String getPropertyOptions() {
return AppUtil.readPluginResource(getClassName(), "/properties/fileLinkDatalistFormatter.json", null, true, MESSAGE_PATH);
}
public String format(DataList dataList, DataListColumn column, Object row, Object value) {
throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
}
} |
Then, we have to do a UI for admin user to provide inputs for our plugin. In getPropertyOptions method, we already specify our Plugin Properties Options definition file is locate at "/properties/fileLinkDatalistFormatter.json". Let us create a directory "resources/properties" under "file_link_datalist_formatter/src/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.

[{
title : '@@datalist.fileLinkFormatter.config@@',
properties : [{
name : 'formDefId',
label : '@@datalist.fileLinkFormatter.form@@',
type : 'selectbox',
options_ajax : '[CONTEXT_PATH]/web/json/console/app[APP_PATH]/forms/options',
required : 'True'
},
{
name : 'attachment',
label : '@@datalist.fileLinkFormatter.attachment@@',
type : 'checkbox',
options : [{
value : 'true',
label : ''
}]
}]
}] |

c. Manage the dependency libraries of your plugin
There are no dependency for this plugin.
d. Make your plugin internationalization (i18n) ready
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.
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.
| Code Block |
|---|
org.joget.tutorial.FileLinkDatalistFormatter.pluginLabel=File Link Datalist Formatter
org.joget.tutorial.FileLinkDatalistFormatter.pluginDesc=To format the column value as attachment download link.
datalist.fileLinkFormatter.config=Configure File Link Formatter
datalist.fileLinkFormatter.form=Form
datalist.fileLinkFormatter.attachment=Download as Attachment? |
e. Register your plugin to Felix Framework
We will have to register our plugin class in Activator class (Auto generated in the same class package) to tell Felix Framework that this is a plugin.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
public void start(BundleContext context) {
registrationList = new ArrayList<ServiceRegistration>();
//Register plugin here
registrationList.add(context.registerService(FileLinkDatalistFormatter.class.getName(), new FileLinkDatalistFormatter(), null));
} |
f. Build it and testing
Let build our plugin. Once the building process is done, we will found a "file_link_datalist_formatter-5.0.0.jar" file is created under "file_link_datalist_formatter/target" directory.
Then, let upload the plugin jar to Manage Plugins. After upload the jar file, double check the plugin is uploaded and activated correctly.
8. Take a step further, share it or sell it
You can download the source code from .
To download the ready-to-use plugin jar, please find it in http://marketplace.joget.org/.
