I have an app (already written) and it uses Struts/JSP and so on. Now, the idea is to write another app and deploy it as a separate WAR file, then simply call it from the JSP in order it be there sort of like a portlet.
How it is possible to do? With a “plain” GWT I remember I put some
inside, tell the ID and call some javascript to let it pick up. But with Vaadin?..
Let’s assume, I have a plain Vaadin app, called “Doodle”. So it is called from the browser like this: http://localhost:8080/Doodle/doodle and it works.
Now, I want it visible in the application “Foo”, which is accessible as http://localhost:8080/Foo and also works.
So I added div, added vaadinConfigurations Java script and so on, as described on the Application Embedding above. But I see zero CSS come with it: al app is working, but just in “Times New Roman” font.
If we talk about Tomcat, then I have “VAADIN” directory with all the stuff included in “webapps/ROOT” unzipped. I also tried these variants in the JavaScript:
themeUri: ‘/VAADIN/themes’ ← this is a default one and should work out of the box, right?
themeUri: ‘VAADIN/themes/reindeer’
themeUri: ‘/Doodle/VAADIN/themes’
themeUri: ‘/Doodle/VAADIN/themes/reindeer’
Nothing of above works.
How I can enable “Reindeer” theme in my app then
other than just add “link” element to the JSP page with a theme CSS? Can anyone please help here what is a standard way and what is “themeUri” for, if it is does not works in this case?
P.S. Embedding app document (http://vaadin.com/book/-/page/application.embedding.html) is very unclear how to bind Vaadin app to a DIV with a custom defined ID and is pretty confusing. Basically, you have to figure out it by yourself. Please somebody clear it up as well.
