Hi Jos,
nice post! Small enhancement see above.
Hi Peter,
In the sitemap you have access to request parameters via Jexl:
<map:match pattern="enquiry">
<map:generate type="someGeneration">
<map:parameter name="from"
value="{jexl:cocoon.request.parameter.fromname}"/>
...
However, it may be far more convenient to use the HttpRequest, as it is exposed
in different ways:
1. if you want to send your user's inputs to a controller to handle them as in:
<map:match pattern="enquiry">
<controller:call controller="rest-controller"
select="some.package.EnquiryController">
</controller:call>
</map:match>
The http request is accessible by just declaring it with the annotation @Inject:
@Inject
private HttpServletRequest request;
Here you can do directly
@RequestParameter
private String fromname;
salu2
In your "doPost" method (or even doGet) you can use the request:
String fromName = request.getParameter("fromname");
Instead of sending the input to a controller, it may happen that there is little to control, and
you just want to do a model generation as a response.
In that case:
if you are declaring:
public class SomeViewGenerator extends AbstractSAXGenerator {
You may override the "setup" member :
public void setup(Map<String, Object> parameters) {
try {
request = HttpContextHelper.getRequest(parameters);
The setup member is just called at pipeline setup, and when this happens in a web application
context, the http request is just one of the parameters.
I hope this little expose helps,
Jos

Hi,
I want to use a html5 form to pass values into my sitemap eg
<form action="enquiry" method="?" >
<input type="text" name="fromname" placeholder="Your Name"
required=''/>
How do I pass "fromname" into "enquiry"
Regards
Peter

We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is
in it - and stay there, lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot
stove-lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove-lid again - and that
is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one any more.
