Hi Farhan,
You should create an IRequestTargetUrlCodingStrategy implementation to
serve the CSS from the database.
It should work to mount the strategy on something like
'/custom-user-css' and then user the rest of the path as the options for
say the user and version of the css to load. The version number may be
needed to get around browser caching of the CSS if changes are made.
You get look at the other implementations to see how they do this but
yours will be slightly different since you are serving CSS not Pages.
You can then add in the CSS resource link to the pages that need it only
customizing the user parameter part of the url.
I've done something similar for generating user specific images (custom
images stamped with user specific details) so I know it will work.
Regards,
Mike
Thanks for quick response.
Obviously, styles can be loaded from database after Login. But i want to make a separate css file and dont want ot add it in the java code, for sake of simplicity.
Is there any way to store css styles directly from css file for a specific
user, and then load styles directly to css file after user Login ?
Or can we make css file dynamic by introducing variables in it (like in PHP) ?
Thanks...

Subject: Re: Save CSS/StyleSheet in Database ?
You would probably have to use cookies to save which style the users would
have. There is no way knowing this without login or cookie.
There are probably a better way of doing this but if you save style and
classes in a database like this
*{ font-family: verdana; } // a row in the database
a{ color: red; } // a row in the database
you could implement the IHeaderContributor and override the renderHead
public void renderHead(IHeaderResponse response) {
StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
buf.append( "<style type=\"text/css\">" );
buf.append( "*{ font-size: 9px; }" );
buf.append( "</style>" );
response.renderString(buf);
}
of couse you should the get it from a service or directly from a dao.
public void renderHead(IHeaderResponse response) {
BradningService service = getBrandingService(); // get this using
@SpringBean or whatever
List<String> styles = service.getStyles( user ); // get the style for a
user
iterate here and add the style
}
