---------------------------------------
Summary: Easy to embed wicket widgets into 3rd party pages
Key: WICKET-6411
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6411
Project: Wicket
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: wicket
Reporter: Vaclav Slovacek
Until recently iframes were the primary method of embedding 3rd party
widgets/components/content into your pages. However recent trends in JavaScript
frameworks such as Angular and React enable to seamlessly embed 3rd party
widgets directly into the original page DOM. This overcomes several limitations
of iframes including ability to render outside of the iframe.
Ideally you would like to tell the author of the parent page to embed some code
like this:
{code:html}
<head>
<script src="https://myApplication.com/allYouNeed.js";></script>
</head>
<body>
<div wicket:embed="id/path or something identifying the component"></div>
</body>
{code}
The included JS would contain bootstrap that finds all embedded Wicket
components and does AJAX requests to get HTML content to render in the divs.
There are couple of things that would need to be done like contributing to the
parent page header items. Making sure the content from wicket is returned
without <html><head><body> wrapping tags.
