UI Macro and Widget for service catalog: load external url using both UI macro and widget

(much neater ways of doing this with generic UI macro/widget but this was pulled together at very short notice)

UI MESSAGE:

store the url, remember to prefix with https:// !!

ritm.hardwarereq.url

UI MACRO:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:g="glide" xmlns:j2="null" xmlns:g2="null">

<a href='' onclick='ext_loadURL()'>Click here</a>

<script>

function ext_loadURL(){

var ext_url=getMessage('ritm.hardwarereq.url');

 

window.open(ext_url, "_blank");

//or in popup: window.open(ext_url, "s", "resizable=yes, toolbar=no, location=no, directories=no, status=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=yes, copyhistory=no").blur();

      

}

</script>

</j:jelly>

SERVICE PORTAL WIDGET:

HTML:

<div>

<!-- your widget template -->

  <a href='' ng-click='load_ext_url()'>Click here</a>

  

</div>

Client Script:

function($scope, i18n, $window) {

  /* widget controller */

  var c = this;

$scope.load_ext_url = function() {

   //console.log("message", 'run the op');

  //var ext_url=i18n.getMessage('ritm.hardwarereq.url');

  // alert('URL: ' + r.data.exturl);

   

c.server.get().then(function(r){

             

            var ext_url=r.data.exturl;

alert(ext_url);

            window.open(ext_url);   

        });              

  };

}

Server Script:

(function() {

  /* populate the 'data' object */

  /* e.g., data.table = $sp.getValue('table'); */

  data.exturl=gs.getMessage('ritm.hardwarereq.url');

//gs.addInfoMessage(data.exturl)

})();
