In order for us to use the Cocoon Portal Engine as a layout engine (or
just to experiment with it at this stage) we will have to integrate
portal block into Forrest. This will be a breeze when real blocks arrive
in Cocoon, but in the meantime we will have to use an internal plugin.
Problem is the Cocoon Portal Block provides an xconf file.
I've just committed some new plugin code that allows a plugin to provide
additional configuration information to cocoon.xconf. Simply place your
*.xconf file in PLUGIN_HOME/conf/*.xconf.
Note that changes to this configuration file will not take effect until
Forrest has been restarted.
My next task is to create a Portal internal plugin as a forrest:views
implementation, but I figured this part might be useful for other devs
so committed early.
Can you setup a basic portal plugin? I will then play around with it.
Right now I am just tweaking some portal stylesheet on my local
harddrive, but as soon we have the plugin I can do it here.
That is my intention, but I don't have the time for at least a few days
(other than an hour here and there).
