Features

This module provides jQuery integration for Tapestry 5 and completely drops out Prototype, Scriptaculous and the base tapestry.js script.

It also relies on jQuery 1.10.2 and jQuery UI 1.10.3.

Exclusive jQuery components :

Exclusive jQuery Mixins :

Exclusive jQuery Binding Prefixes :

  • selector
    • selector:id returns #clientId allows finding typos at java runtime instead of at javascript runtime

Theses components were originally present in Tapestry 5 Core and can still be used as it :

Due to some extensibility issues of Core components, theses are originals components need to be used using the "jquery" namespace

How to use it

Just add tapestry5-jquery to your classpath (see Maven dependency snippet below)!

Then use components like you would normally do. For Autocomplete and Palette use "jquery" namespace:

<t:form>
    <t:jquery.autocomplete />
	<t:submit />
</t:form>

Or add jquery to the tapestry-library namespace:

<html xmlns:t="http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_3.xsd"
  xmlns:p="tapestry:parameter"
  xmlns:j="tapestry-library:jquery">

<t:form>
    <j:palette />
    <t:textfield t:mixins="jquery/autocomplete" ... />
    <t:submit />
</t:form>

</html>

You still need to have PrototypeJS and the components originally included in tapestry ?

Tapestry5-jquery project allows you to choose whether to include or not Prototype (and original tapestry components). jQuery will be added to the javascript stack in every case. In your AppModule, contributeApplicationDefaults method, you can add configuration.add(JQuerySymbolConstants.SUPPRESS_PROTOTYPE, "false");

Note about jQuery

In traditional jQuery development, we are used to manipulate the $ alias to select the elements we want to play with. jQuery allows us to change this default alias (for compatibility with other js frameworks also using the $ alias : like PrototypeJS, included in Tapestry, for example). The tapestry5-jquery project has an option permitting you to customize this alias : in your AppModule, contributeApplicationDefaults method, you can add configuration.add(JQuerySymbolConstants.JQUERY_ALIAS, "yourOwnAlias");. The default jquery alias is $.

By the way, if you've set the JQuerySymbolConstants.SUPPRESS_PROTOTYPE option to false, you may not use $ to refer to jQuery, because $ actually refers to Prototype. Thus, you may want to change jQuery's alias in that particular case. However, if you didn't change it, jQuery's alias will automatically be set to $j.
