locale

This pattern generator expands to the current kernel execution context locale. ie the value re-

turned by a call to com.arsdigita.kernel.Kernel.getContext().getLocale();.

outputtype

If the outputType request parameter is set, this expands to one of text-plain,

text-javascript, or text-html if the parameter value is text/plain,

text/javascript or text/html respectively. In all other cases no values are generated.

prefix

If the current request has passed through an instance of the

com.arsdigita.web.InternalRedirectServlet, then this pattern generator expands to

the value of the prefix init parameter in the web.xml servlet declaration. In all other cases no

values are generated.

url

This pattern generator expands to multiple values based on the URL fragment remaining after the

application’s mount point. The set of values are generated by progressively stripping off trailing

path components. The values are then normalized as follows:

1. The ﬁle extension is removed.

2. Trailing occurrences of /index are replaced with /.

3. If the path is the empty string, it is replaces with index.

4. Occurrences of / are replaced with -.

Some examples are:

• /index.jsp -

{ "index" }

• / - { "index" }

• /admin/index.jsp - { "admin", "index" }

• /admin/ - { "admin", "index" }

• /admin/item.jsp - { "admin-item", "admin", "index" }

5.2.2.4. Conﬁguration

The choice of which stylesheet resolver to use is controlled by the waf.templating.stylesheet_resolver

property, and defaults to com.arsdigita.templating.PatternStylesheetResolver.

The location of the paths ﬁle to conﬁgure the pattern based stylesheet resolver is controlled by

the waf.templating.stylesheet_paths property, defaulting to /WEB-INF/resources/stylesheet-

paths.txt

To enable an application to operate with the default pattern stylesheet resolver conﬁguration,

its primary top level stylesheet should be named /__ccm__/apps/[application

key]/xsl/index.xsl.
