VisualEditorPathProvider

public VisualEditorPathProvider()

Method Detail

isSupported

public boolean isSupported(Context context)

Quick determination if this VisualEditorPathProvider supports the given Context. This method is called first, and can be used to perform any initialization needed. Note that getVisualEditorPath() could still return null, this is an optimization in case there is other detailed processing necessary to calculate the actual path.

Parameters:

context - Context of a Node to view in the Visual Editor

Returns:

Whether or not the Context's Node is supported.

getVisualEditorPath

public abstract java.lang.String getVisualEditorPath(Context context)

Return a Design Time Visual Editor viewable path for the given Context, or null if the implementation doesn't handle it.

The implementation should not prompt for additional information, etc, since the Visual Editor isn't the same full environment as the embedded server.

Parameters:

context - Context of a Node to view in the Design Time Visual Editor

Returns:

a Design Time viewable path for the given Context, or null
