Re: WildCard URL strategy for E-Commerce Products
Hi,
Thanks for sharing your solution!
If you use Wicket 1.5+ it will be a bit easier - with your own impl of
IRequestMapper you can read the passed request's url. This Url has
#getSegments() method that returns a list of all path parameters. If the
last segment is "productDetails" then you have to use ProductDetails.class
page. All previous segments are the categories.

Re: WildCard URL strategy for E-Commerce Products
Ok, for lack of any conclusive existing solution; the following is what I
developed and works for the use case described:
Step 1: Create a BookmarkablePageRequestTargetUrlCodingStrategy that can
accept RegularExpressions:
Step 2: The default WebRequestCodingStrategy uses a MountMap that
unfortunately uses path.startsWith(...) . So we have to write a
WebRequestCodingStrategy that will make use of Regular Expressions.
Step 3: The Strategies have to be called via the WebApplication. Hence in
ones implementation/extension of WebApplication; do:
Now run the App. Sample Run/Demo:
If you define RegexQueryStringUrlCodingStrategy("productDetails",
"^(.)*productDetails", ProductDetails.class);
Then all the following will work:
/productDetails
/AnyCat/productDetails
/AnySubCat/productDetails
etc.

Software documentation is like sex: when it is good, it is very, very good; and
when it is bad, it is still better than nothing!

Re: WildCard URL strategy for E-Commerce Products
:) The question isn't about "Page Params" A mount needs a Mouth path thats what the question is... How do you mount a path where a certain part of it can be anything (not significant) ? Explicitly loading mouth paths for "EACH" product (as a separate product page) would not be wise in my opinion. - Software documentation is like sex: when it is good, it is very, very good; and when it is bad, it is still better than nothing! -- View this message in context: http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/WildCard-URL-strategy-for-E-Commerce-Products-tp4664984p4664987.html Sent from the Users forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
Re: WildCard URL strategy for E-Commerce Products
Mount your product details page and then use PagePatameters to extract the query params. N On Mar 15, 2014 10:44 AM, "Arjun Dhar" wrote: > Hi, > for the sake of SEO.

WildCard URL strategy for E-Commerce Products
Hi, for the sake of SEO. It is recommended that URL path params for a product look like: Example -- /../Category1/SubCategory2/SubSubCategory2/productDetails?name=SHOE123 Now, one stupid way of doing this could be to load every product in the database by generating the link to it. However I feel thats too inefficient. I'd simply like to define a Strategy /*/productDetails?name=SHOE123 ... Where Wicket would not care what came before "productDetails" and recognizes "productDetails" as the Page. The PATH PARAMS are merely a SEO formality and not of consequence to the final Page loading. Do I write my own strategy for this stuff or is there something Out of the Box? thanks - Software documentation is like sex: when it is good, it is very, very good; and when it is bad, it is still better than nothing! -- View this message in context: http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/WildCard-URL-strategy-for-E-Commerce-Products-tp4664984.html Sent from the Users forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
