(warning) In the latest release of the module, there are still certain objects that the old BlossomFormDialogPresenter used to make injectable, mostly Vaadin 7 items, JCR Node and node path.
For the time being, please keep using the Pages compatibility app for these use cases. Magnolia 6 UI framework does not have configurable form-dialog presenters, nor Vaadin 7 items.

Version 3.1.4

The

$webResourceManager.requireResource("info.magnolia.sys.confluence.artifact-info-plugin:javadoc-resource-macro-resources") BlossomFormDialogPresenter
 is now configurable in the 
$webResourceManager.requireResource("info.magnolia.sys.confluence.artifact-info-plugin:javadoc-resource-macro-resources") BlossomModule
(the formDialogPresenterClass property). This change was required to allow component personalization with Blossom.

If you want to use component personalization together with Blossom, you have to add the magnolia-personalization-blossom module to the webapp, otherwise it won't be possible to manage personalized components.

Maven is the easiest way to install the module. Add the following dependency to your bundle:

Error rendering macro 'artifact-maven-dependencies-snippet-macro'

com.sun.jersey.api.client.ClientHandlerException: java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No route to host (Host unreachable)

Use version 1.4.4 or higher.

Version 3.0

Major update for Magnolia 5 style dialogs, compatible with Magnolia 5.1 and later. In version 5 Magnolia has a brand new
user interface and with it comes a new API for dialogs. This version of Blossom is an update for this API and also
contains a few other improvements.

The new user interface is built using Vaadin. In previous versions of Magnolia you would create and configure controls,
now you build an object model that defines how the dialog and its fields should appear and behave. This definition
model is then used to create and configure vaadin components. The fields have better support for validation which is why
@TabValidator and @DialogValidator have been removed in this version.

For composing the dialogs Blossom 3 uses a builder style API that creates a more fluent programming style. A new set of
classes replaces the previous API. These classes include a new TabBuilder and DialogBuilder and provides builders for
each of the built-in fields, making it easier to configure properties on the fields.

A new feature in this release is meta-annotations for component availability. It allows for creating custom annotations
that can then be used on components to categorize them. They can then be used for specifying which components can go
into an area with the @AvailableComponentClasses annotation. All components having a specified annotation will be
available.

Using Springs freemarker macros for forms is now straight forward. When rendering freemarker views Blossom will expose
a RequestContext object which these macros require, it will also expose everything in the model as request attributes.
This feature is enabled by default but can be switched off on the FreemarkerTemplateViewRenderer.

The multipart support that bridges Springs multipart handling to the multipart support in Magnolia has been updated for
API changes made in Spring 3.1.

The groupId changes for this version from info.magnolia to info.magnolia.blossom.

Improvements:

  • BLOSSOM-2 Spring macro helper and the model is now exposed as request attributes in freemarker templates
  • BLOSSOM-89 Multipart resolver now implements methods required in Spring 3.1
  • BLOSSOM-108 UUID redirects are not resolved in pre-execution
  • BLOSSOM-114 BeanFactoryUtils should use SLF4J instead of commons logging
  • BLOSSOM-115 BLOSSOM-121 Update for Magnolia 5.1
  • BLOSSOM-119 Add spring schema for Blossom 3.0
  • BLOSSOM-120 Update bootstrap files for metadata mixins
  • BLOSSOM-127 Change groupId to info.magnolia.blossom
  • BLOSSOM-130 Fix for using the same JSP nested multiple times

  • BLOSSOM-106 Extension hooks in TemplateExporter and DialogExporter for post processing definitions
  • BLOSSOM-117 BLOSSOM-135 Add support for Magnolia 5 style dialogs
  • BLOSSOM-131 Meta annotations for component availability

Version 2.0

Major update for Magnolia 4.5 and its new rendering engine, page editor and templating concepts. With Magnolia 4.5
areas are explicit entities rather than implicit as node collections. The term paragraph is replaced with component.
Components and templates have been streamlined and are internally identical, the only real difference is that they
have different id formats which in turn controls where they're applicable.

@Paragraph has been deprecated and removed. Instead use @Template and set an id of the form <moduleName>:components/*

@ParagraphDescription has been renamed to @TemplateDescription

Templates now have a dialog, use the dialog annotations in the same way as you did for paragraphs.

Ids for templates and components are no longer generated from their @RequestMapping paths. As of this version they need
to be specified on the @Template annotation explicitly.

Paragraphs used to require a dialog even if there was nothing to set. This is no longer the case, a component or
template that doesn't use any of the annotations used to create a dialog will simply not have a dialog. A component is
added to the page immediately without a dialog being shown.

Areas are defined using nested classes (public static class) within a template or another area in which it belongs. They
are normal Spring Web MVC controllers the same as templates and you annotate them with @Area. You can configure which
components are available in them using the @AvailableComponents or @AvailableComponentClasses annotations. Areas have
their own dialog.

An area can inherit components from areas of the same name in the page's parent pages. By default it will only inherit
components marked for inheritance.

The content API, centered on info.magnolia.cms.core.Content, has been deprecated. It's still around and fully backwards
compatible and will be for some time. Instead we favour using the JCR API directly. Therefore in all the places where
Blossom was giving you a Content object you can now instead choose to receive a javax.jcr.Node object. This includes all
the methods you've annotated with blossom annotations as well as your @RequestMapping methods.

No longer necessary to use the ServletContextExposingContextListener as the functionality it provided is now part
of Magnolia itself. The class has been removed, you need to update your web.xml.

The <blossom:configuration> that was previously required in your applicationContext.xml is no longer required and need
to be removed.

Added features:

  • BLOSSOM-65 Templates are dialog factories for their own dialog
  • BLOSSOM-71 @TemplateDescription replaces @ParagraphDescription
  • BLOSSOM-72 @Paragraph is replaced with @Template
  • BLOSSOM-74 Templates are identified with id
  • BLOSSOM-78 Area configuration using nested classes
  • BLOSSOM-82 Areas can have available components set using the classes defining the components
  • BLOSSOM-87 @Available methods can receive the TemplateDefinition for the template

Improvements:

  • BLOSSOM-59 FactoryBeans for beans configured in JCR use JCR API
  • BLOSSOM-61 BlossomWebArgumentResolver supports passing object being rendered as JCR Node instances
  • BLOSSOM-79 ServletContextExposingContextListener is dropped
  • BLOSSOM-81 Empty dialogs are not displayed
  • BLOSSOM-83 Template ids needs to be set explicitly, generation from @RequestMapping is dropped
  • BLOSSOM-84 Template title is set with title field instead of value field

Behind the scenes:

  • BLOSSOM-58 Update for Java 6 and JCR 2.0
  • BLOSSOM-60 upgraded test to JUnit 4
  • BLOSSOM-62 UuidRedirectView and resolver use JCR terminology (workspace instead of repository)
  • BLOSSOM-63 MagnoliaComponentFactoryBean uses Components instead of FactoryUtil

Version 1.2

Big enhancements to the feature set and fixes two important bugs. Most notably added support for having beans that are
configured in the repository with support for reloading them transparently when their configuration changes. The feature
builds on an extension to Content2Bean that allows dependency injection, lifecycle events and applying AOP proxies using
the ApplicationContext. As for the ApplicationContext there's a new feature that brings in singletons from Magnolia so
that they can be specified as dependencies in bean definitions or used for autowiring. Also new in this release is a
number of enhancements for working with content in controllers even easier.

Added features:

  • BLOSSOM-14 Make possible to set a SaveHandler for a dialog
  • BLOSSOM-19 Support for DI and AOP in Content2Bean
  • BLOSSOM-20 FactoryBeans for creating beans configured in repository with support for observed reloading
  • BLOSSOM-23 WebArgumentResolver for Content, User, MgnlUser, AggregationState and Context
  • BLOSSOM-24 FactoryBean that exposes magnolia singletons in ApplicationContext
  • BLOSSOM-29 ViewResolver for sending redirects based on uuid
  • BLOSSOM-30 Support for filter and servlet proxies that defer initialization until Magnolia has finished update/install phase
  • BLOSSOM-31 @Available should be overridable in subclasses

Bug fixes:

  • BLOSSOM-16 BlossomDispatcherServlet fails to render when handlerPath is a subset of the requestURI
  • BLOSSOM-18 Multipart support doesn't work with Spring 3

Behind the scenes:

  • BLOSSOM-22 Move BlossomFilter deeper into filter chain to make sure that AggregationState is properly filled in during pre execution
  • BLOSSOM-28 Upgrade to parent pom version 19
  • BLOSSOM-32 Anonymous dialogs for paragraphs should be registered in repository like normal dialogs

Version 1.1.1

Small feature and bug fix release. The javadoc documentation has been greatly improved and extended. You can now
annotate a method in your templates to control where the template is available. Blossom now also support multipart
requests by exposing Magnolias built in support through the Spring APIs. VirtualURIMappings are now discovered
and automatically exported. There's also support for declaring them using an annotation @VirtualURIMapper. Also, if
you've done customizations to add more argument types to methods for creating and validating dialogs and tabs you'll
be pleased to see that this extension point is now more comprehensible and easy to use.

Added features:

  • BLOSSOM-1 Support for @Available to control where a template can be used
  • BLOSSOM-4 Support for exposing VirtualURIMappings and classes using @VirtualURIMapper
  • BLOSSOM-11 Support for multipart requests, bridges Springs abstraction onto Magnolia multipart processing

Bug fixes:

  • BLOSSOM-5 NPE while detecting dialog factories and encounters abstract bean
  • BLOSSOM-7 ContextLoader is not released correctly on module reload
  • BLOSSOM-12 The autodetected node is created only when needed so it won't be considered as a dialog when its empty
  • BLOSSOM-13 Use of configNode when creating dialogs

Behind the scenes:

  • BLOSSOM-8 Upgrade POM expand javadoc and pass checkstyle tests
  • BLOSSOM-9 Improve package structuring and extract detection of templates, paragraphs and dialogs to separate classes

Version 1.0

As of version 1.0 Blossom gives you a much bigger feature set and some of the functionality in the previous version has matured. Unfortunately this means that some changes have to be made when upgrading. But don't worry, your content does not have to be touched.

Added features:

  • Support for exposing controllers as Templates
  • Support for creating all types of dialogs with code
  • Localization support for paragraphs, dialogs and templates
  • Rendering of views is performed using the Magnolia render chain, supports both JSP and Freemarker
  • Ordering of dialog tabs is customizable with @TabOrder
  • The locale used by Magnolia can be made visible to Spring using MagnoliaLocaleResolver
  • Magnolia's localization mechanism can be bridged into Spring using MagnoliaMessageSource
  • JSP tag pecid-input is now also available as pecidInput

Behind the scenes:

  • Blossom now exposes controllers are normal paragraphs instead of using a placeholder paragraph
    that delegates rendering to the controller. This is a much cleaner design and allows migration
    of existing content and paragraphs into Blossom.
  • Customization of the paragraph select dialog is no longer necessary.

API Changes:

  • Paragraphs are no longer named after the handlerPath they're mapped to. That is, a controller mapped to /text that was previously referred to in templates as /text is now simply text. This had to be done in order to support migration of existing configured paragraphs into Blossom. Using a forward slash / in a paragraph name was never a good idea in the first place. You don't have to specify a name on your paragraph, it will automatically use the handlerPath stripped from any slashes as its name.
  • @ParagraphTitle is renamed to @Paragraph and moves to se.issi.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation
  • @ParagraphDescription moves to se.issi.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation
  • DialogTabBuilder is renamed to TabBuilder
  • DialogTabBuilder.addText changes to TabBuilder.addEdit
  • Methods in DialogTabBuilder no longer throw RepositoryException
  • Methods in DialogTabBuilder now return the control they create
  • @DialogTabFactory is renamed to @TabFactory and moves to se.issi.magnolia.module.blossom.annotation
  • Ordering of tabs in dialogs are now set using the @TabOrder annotation
  • <blossom:handler-mapping /> is deprecated and removed
  • <blossom:paragraph-registry /> is renamed to <blossom:configuration />
  • Extension hooks in DefaultBlossomParagraphRegistry have new arguments
  • ValidatingParagraph is removed and replaced with @DialogValidator
  • Interface DialogCreator has changed and DefaultDialogCreator changes accordingly.
