[solved] how to add a jsp page into Alfresco Explorer?

Hi

I would like to create an action for a specific space type which open a jsp page inside the alfresco explorer ui and use an external ajax library to display pie charts and other statistics about the space.
I know some basics about creation of an action but I'm not used to Spring.

To be more precise, I would like the same behaviour that the showDetails action, but without all the panels (like the action menu on the right or the rss feed panel…) I don't know if I have to use dialogs or if I could use the href attribute of the action, and how to pass to the jsp page the noderef of the space?

Thanks for the help
Regards.

steps:
define action
put action where you need it
define dialog


1:define action

<action id="actionname">
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<label-id>label</label-id>
<evaluator>see what eveluators are if you do not want this for all nodes, but for selected only.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</evaluator>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<image>/images/icons/image.png
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</image>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<action-listener>#{BrowseBean.setupContentAction}//this makes current node 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</action-listener>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<action>dialog:DIALOG_NAME</action>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<params>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<param name="id">#{actionContext.id}</param>//YOU COPY PASTE THIS PART
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</params>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</action>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

JUST FOR REFERENCE{FROM BrowseBean}
public void setupSpaceAction(ActionEvent event)
   {
      UIActionLink link = (UIActionLink)event.getComponent();
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Map<String, String> params = link.getParameterMap();
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; String id = params.get("id");
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; setupSpaceAction(id, true);
&nbsp;&nbsp; }
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

2ut action where you want it

put action on documents in browser.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<action-group id="document_browse_menu">
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<action idref="actionname" />
</action-group>‍‍‍‍‍

3:define dialog:

<dialog name="send_via_email" page="/jsp/extension/yourjsp.jsp"
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;managed-bean="yourDialogBean" icon="/images/icons/icon.png"
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;title-id="title" description-id="_description"
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;show-ok-button="false" error-message-id="empty_message" />‍‍‍‍

4:create jsp:

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/alfresco.tld" prefix="a"%>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/repo.tld" prefix="r"%>

<%@page import="org.alfresco.web.app.servlet.FacesHelper"%>
<%@page import="javax.faces.context.FacesContext"%>
<%@page import="org.alfresco.docassistent.ZohoDialogBean"%><f:loadBundle
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;basename="alfresco.extension.webclientlogin" var="customMsg" />

<f:loadBundle basename="alfresco.messages.webclient" var="msg" />


<f:verbatim>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<script type="text/javascript"
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;src="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/scripts/validation.js"> </script>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<script type="text/javascript">
var finishButtonPressed = false;
window.onload = pageLoaded;

function pageLoaded()
{
&nbsp; document.getElementById("wizard:next-button").disabled = true;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; document.getElementById("wizard:back-button").disabled= true;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; document.getElementById("wizard:cancel-button").disabled=true;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; document.getElementById("dialog:finish-button").value = 'Ok';
checkButtonState();
}
function checkButtonState()
{
}
</script>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<h:form>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<h:outputText value="#{msg.create_space_step1_title}"></h:outputText>


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</h:form>

</f:verbatim>
