Users - Does <@ofbizContentUrl> work in XSL FO?

[Vinay Agarwal]

Hello,

 

I can’t get <@ofbizContentUrl>  to work as expected in companyHeader.fo.ftl. The only thing that seems to work is hard coded server address. Anyone else experienced this? BTW, I found that svg can be used to get high-resolution graphics in the pdf.

 

Thanks in advance,

Vinay Agarwal

Yes, I've found that it doesn't work either.

Do you mean in an FTL file run through the screen widget to generate XSL:FO? Or what sort of file are you using and how is it called?

In the FTL run through screen widget to generate XSL:FO.  It's been a  
while since I played with it, so my memory is a bit hazy, but somehow  
it didn't generate the absolute URL that xsl:fo needed.  For example,  
if you do

http://localhost:8080/.../.pdf

and then in that image you wanted to refer to an image, you can't do  
src="/images/..." you have to do src="http://localhost:8080/ 
images/.." and reference the image in the absolute.  Somehow I  
couldn't get ofbizContentUrl to get the right URL for me.

Did you perhaps try the fullPath="true" argument in the transform? From what you're describing it sounds like that would be the solution.

David,

The file in question is companyHeader.fo.ftl being used to generate order
PDF. Specifically, I was trying <@ofbizContentUrl> for the src attribute url
in fo:external-graphic tag. The src url in file is
        <@ofbizContentUrl>/images/logo.svg</@ofbizContentUrl>

which is expanded to
        /images/logo.svg (without any server name).

Regards,
Vinay Agarwal

Huh, no - I didn't know that there was a fullPath="true" argument.  
How about that--now I've learned something.

Does that work for you, Vinay?

Yeah, this is one of those things among so many options that the best way to find it (for me) is to pop open the source file and check out the arguments it looks at. Maybe not the best way to find things, but it only took about 2 minutes or something to check to see if something like that existed.

David, Si,

I just tried (in companyHeader.fo.ftl)
        <@ofbizContentUrl
fullPath="true">/images/logo.svg</@ofbizContentUrl>

But it is still expanded to
        /images/logo.svg (still without any server name).

Vinay Agarwal

Yes, that's still the best way to learn.  It just never occurred to  
me that there might be other optional arguments available.  Good  
advice for the future, though.
