Configuration files let you store arbitrary XML descriptions for use in your custom Surf
objects. In most cases, the only time you will need to construct one of these objects is when
describing site configuration. An example of a site configuration follows.
Locations
- classpath:/alfresco/site-data/configurations
- classpath:/alfresco/web-extension/site-data/configurations
Definition
<configuration>
<source-id>SOURCE_ID</source-id>
</configuration>
Properties
- <source-id> - Tags the configuration as pertaining to an arbitrary ID. Surf will automatically look for configuration where source-id is site.
Example - Site configuration
The following file defines the Surf site configuration. It describes a Configuration object that is bound to the site source ID.
classpath:/alfresco/web-extension/site-data/configurations/default.site.configuration.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<title>My Web Site</title>
<source-id>site</source-id>
<properties>
<root-page>welcome</root-page>
</properties>
</component>
