How to define custom navigation rules for included component?

I'm trying the include a component (with ui:include) and set a navigation rule for the caller page. The included component has a form; when submitted I want to display a feedback message (like growl) and conditionally display the included panel again.

What is the best way to achieve this?

Solution

  • You can use <ui:param> to let the caller specify custom parameters for an <ui:include>.

    <ui:include ...>
    <ui:param name="foo" value="..." />
</ui:include>

    You could pass them through to the method in the <h:commandButton> of the include page.

    <h:commandButton ... action="#{bean.submit(foo)}" />

    public String submit(String foo) {
    // ...
}
