I like your idea about creating a "bypass" or "clayIgnore" block. It would be
a new feature. I'll see if I can get that done.
I can think of a way to handle today as a compromise. You could load a
document into a jsf outputText component using the shape validator. Maybe
something like this:
-- html
<!-- inserting a vanilla form here -->
<span jsfid="clayInclude" url="/login.htm" managedBeanName="mybean"
shapeValidator="#{managed-bean-name.includeLoginForm}" />
-- xml def (metadata attributes that are not component properties end up in
the attributes map)
<component jsfid="clayInclude" extends="clay">
<attributes>
<set name="url" />
</attributes>
</component>
-- managed bean
mybean:
public void includeLoginForm(FacesContext context, UIComponent clay, Object
displayElement) {
ComponentBea root = (ComponentBean) displayElement;
//make the root a verbatim component
root.setComponentType("javax.faces.HtmlOutputText");
String url = (String) clay.getAttributes().get("url");
//use the external context to load a file into a buffer
StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer();
InputStream in = context.getExternalContext().getResourceAsStream(url);
.... read file into buffer ...
//include the payload as a value attribute
AttributeBean attr = new AttributeBean();
attr.setName("value");
attr.setValue(buff.toString());
root.addAttribute(attr);
//leave the html special chars
attr = new AttributeBean();
attr.setName("escape");
attr.setValue(Boolean.FALSE.toString());
root.addAttribute(attr);
//don't cache server side state for the monster
attr = new AttributeBean();
attr.setName("isTransient");
attr.setValue(Boolean.TRUE.toString());
root.addAttribute(attr);
}
I think that something simple like this might be good in the Clay baseline.
