[SOLVED] how to create a navigation in GateIn programatically

how to create a navigation in GateIn programatically

I created a GateIn portal application using GateIn 3.2. I need to create a navigation link in my gatein portal application without changing navigation.xml file. Which means i need to create it in pragmatically. To do that which GateIn service class i need to call?. Is there is any sample code available for that?

Solution

AFAIK from version 3.3 Gatein introduced the NavigationService that's used to manipulate navigation. Example for usage of NavigationService:

POMSessionManager mgr = (POMSessionManager) container.getComponentInstanceOfType(POMSessionManager.class);
NavigationServiceImpl service = new NavigationServiceImpl(mgr);

mgr.getPOMService().getModel().getWorkspace().addSite(ObjectType.PORTAL_SITE, "save_navigation");
NavigationContext nav = new NavigationContext(SiteKey.portal("save_navigation"), new NavigationState(5));

service.saveNavigation(nav);

For more details you should take a look at NavigationService & all its testcases in version 3.3 (or later). And they were in Component/Portal module.
