Is it possible to clean up the urls generated by WO in WO? I don't
plan on using Apache, so that sorta eliminates mod_rewrite :-)
Shorter URLs aren't a necessity, but it would be nice to have.
Your webserver will have to support some sort of rewriting.
If you use wonder, the app half is easy:
er.extensions.ERXApplication.replaceApplicationPath.pattern=/cgi-bin/
WebObjects/YourApp.woa
er.extensions.ERXApplication.replaceApplicationPath.replace=/YourApp
All URL generation in Wonder passes through this filter, so all your
URLs will get chopped (if you look at the new AjaxExample I posted,
it's using this).
I actually automatically do this in our application base class if
direct connect is enabled:
if (replaceApplicationPathPattern == null &&
rewriteDirectConnectURL() &&
ERXProperties
.booleanForKeyWithDefault("com.mdimension.rewriteDirectConnect",
true)) {
replaceApplicationPathPattern = "/cgi-bin/WebObjects/" + name()
+ ".woa";
if (replaceApplicationPathReplace == null) {
replaceApplicationPathReplace = "";
}
}
In Apache, you would setup the rewrite rule for this as:
RewriteRule ^/yourapp(.*)$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/YourApp.woa$1 [PT,L]
But if you're not using Apache, you would need to figure out what the
equivalent is.
If you need more complex rewriting in Wonder, you can override
_rewriteUrl in ERXApplication and implement your own custom rewriting
logic, but again, whatever the app produces will have to match what
your app rewrites URLs to.
