Configuring the servlet filter

The startTemplate, markContent, and endTemplate tags will only render their output if they detect the presence of the Web Editor servlet filter. The tags can remain in the JSP page in production and have no effect until the servlet filter configuration is added to the web.xml file.
  1. Add the following servlet filter configuration to the web application's web.xml file:

    <filter>
       <filter-name>SkyVault Web Editor Filter</filter-name>
       <description>Enables support for the SkyVault Web Editor</description>
       <filter-class>org.alfresco.web.awe.filter.WebEditorFilter</filter-class>
    </filter>
      
    <filter-mapping>
       <filter-name>SkyVault Web Editor Filter</filter-name>
       <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>

    This enables the tags.

  2. Set the following two optional parameters:

    <init-param>
       <param-name>contextPath</param-name>
       <param-value>/quickstart</param-value>
    </init-param>
    
    <init-param>
       <param-name>debug</param-name>
       <param-value>true</param-value>
    </init-param>

    These parameters control the contextPath that is used when URLs to the Web Editor are generated and the debug mode.
