Using the Consumer Administration UI

The consumer functionality is encapsulated by the WSRP-ProxyPortlet in the Consumer module. Before use, the ProxyPortlet must be added to the Portal Framework using the Portal Administration UI.

  1. Go to Portal Admin > Gears > New Gear and upload the <ATGdir>/WSRP/consumer/proxyPortlet/WSRP4ATGProxyPortlet-manifest.xml gear manifest file.

  2. Go to Portal Admin > Gear and click the Configure link corresponding to WSRP4ATGProxyPortlet to configure the ProxyPortlet using the installConfig mode.

  3. Add the WSRP4ATGProxyPortlet instances to Portal Communities, using the instanceConfig mode of the WSRP4ATGProxyPortlet gear.

    To do this, go to Portal Admin > Community > Community Gears > Configure (WSRP4ATGProxyPortlet) and click the Additional Configurations link.

    Each instance must be associated with a fixed Remote-Producer-Offered-Portlet for its markup content.
