Custom pages in CMDBuild with the GUI Framework
The GUI Framework, released a few months ago, has quickly become the most used solution by our customers to configure, with custom graphics and functionalies, self-service areas where company staff and IT Department interact.
Within those areas, published on intranet portals, staff can report a failure, ask for new services from a "catalogue", see the list of open requests, check the list of their IT assets, read the IT news, etc.
With the same tool, starting from the new version 2.3.4, you can configure pages with layout and content fully customizable inside the standard interface of CMDBuild.
These "custom pages" will be included in the application menu, and will be subject to all profiling mechanisms similar to those of the normal CMDBuild "classes".
To configure the new custom pages all existing features of the GUI Framework will still be available: javascript language and JQuery libraries, XML descriptors to define the layout, customizable style sheets, integrated authentication, access via the REST webservice to CMDBuild, several predefined graphic solutions (forms, grids, and other widgets), ability to implement new features.
Custom pages can be used to customize the login page, to implement CMDBuild complex dashboards, to gain access to functions, etc.
Also the new relation graph, currently under heavy refurbishment, will come into CMDBuild in a "custom page", simplifying the creation of a specialised user interface. |
