Apache Tiles 2, a brief example.

Filed under: template system,Web development — Richard @ 4:58 pm
Tags: , ,

Almost every web site or web application I know have a common layout shared among all the pages. To avoid copy and paste programming, developers usually look for a web template system. Tiles is one of them, made to be used in a J2EE context. It is an implementation of the View Composite core J2EE pattern. I’ll show a brief example to get started with Tiles 2.1.

Typically, Tiles will be installed and configured in a J2EE web application. To begin, I will only create a simple, typical layout. But let’s configure the framework first.

Configuration

There are many ways of configuring Tiles. In my example, I’ll do it like this :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
    version="2.5">

    <context-param>
<param-name>
            org.apache.tiles.definition.DefinitionsFactory.DEFINITIONS_CONFIG
        </param-name>
<param-value>
            /WEB-INF/myTilesConfigFile.xml
        </param-value>
    </context-param>
	<listener>
	<listener-class>org.apache.tiles.web.startup.TilesListener</listener-class>
    </listener>

    <welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>home.jsp</welcome-file>
    </welcome-file-list>

</web-app>

This way, I’m telling my application that I’m using Tiles. It is the configured Context listener that will bootstrap Tiles. The specified context parameter tells the listener in which XML file pages definitions will be.

This XML file defines all existing pages of my application. I specified above that this file will be named myTilesConfigFile.xml, and will be placed under WEB-INF. Here is the content of the definition file :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
       "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.0//EN"
       "http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd">
<tiles-definitions>
    <definition name="homePage" template="/template.jsp">
<put-attribute name="header" value="/defaultHeader.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="menu" value="/defaultMenu.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="body" value="/home_body.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="footer" value="/defaultFooter.jsp" />
    </definition>
</tiles-definitions>

As the code says, I define a page and all its parts, specifying a name for the definition itself, and a template to use.

The template

I want most of my pages to share the same header, footer and left menu. The template file is called template.jsp and is placed under the web application’s root directory :

template.jsp

<%@ taglib uri="http://tiles.apache.org/tags-tiles" prefix="tiles" %>
<html>
    <body style="width:100%;height:100%">
<table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="width:100%;height:100%">
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
                    <tiles:insertAttribute name="header" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
                    <tiles:insertAttribute name="menu" /></td>
<td>
                    <tiles:insertAttribute name="body" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
                    <tiles:insertAttribute name="footer" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Layout parts

header (defaultHeader.jsp)

<div>this is the default header</div>

footer (defaultFooter.jsp)

<div>This is the default footer...</div>

menu (defaultMenu.jsp)

<div>
<ul>
	<li>Menu item 1</li>
	<li>Menu item 2</li>
	<li>Menu item 3</li>
	<li>Menu item 4</li>
	<li>Menu item 5</li>
	<li>Menu item 6</li>
</ul>
</div>

body (home_body.jsp)

<div id="header">
<h1>This is the home page's body</h1>
</div>

Now I have a template and all the pieces needed to fill it. But I don’t have the home page itself.

home page (home.jsp)

Here is the code for the home page named “home.jsp” :

<%@ taglib uri="http://tiles.apache.org/tags-tiles" prefix="tiles" %>
<tiles:insertDefinition name="homePage" />

This page only tells Tiles which definition to use. Then Tiles can read that definition to find which template to take, and for each part of the template, what to insert. To avoid confusion, here is how the directory tree now looks like :

tiles
|-- WEB-INF
|   |-- lib
|   |   |-- commons-beanutils-1.8.0.jar
|   |   |-- commons-digester-1.8.1.jar
|   |   |-- commons-logging-api-1.1.jar
|   |   |-- tiles-api-2.1.2.jar
|   |   |-- tiles-core-2.1.2.jar
|   |   |-- tiles-jsp-2.1.2.jar
|   |   `-- tiles-servlet-2.1.2.jar
|   |-- myTilesConfigFile.xml
|   `-- web.xml
|-- defaultFooter.jsp
|-- defaultHeader.jsp
|-- defaultMenu.jsp
|-- home.jsp
|-- home_body.jsp
`-- template.jsp

Starting the application server and accessing the home.jsp will produce the expected output :

tilesexampleimg11

To make it clearer, let’s now define a second page that will use the same template. What I’m thinking of is an about page. First, write the definition in the myTilesConfigFile.xml configuration file :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
       "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.0//EN"
       "http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd">
<tiles-definitions>
    <definition name="homePage" template="/template.jsp">
<put-attribute name="header" value="/defaultHeader.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="menu" value="/defaultMenu.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="body" value="/home_body.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="footer" value="/defaultFooter.jsp" />
    </definition>

    <definition name="aboutPage" template="/template.jsp">
<put-attribute name="header" value="/defaultHeader.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="menu" value="/defaultMenu.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="body" value="/about_body.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="footer" value="/defaultFooter.jsp" />
    </definition>
</tiles-definitions>

Now there is much less missing parts; I only have to code the page’s body, and the page itself.

about_body.jsp

<h1>About us</h1>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. 
Morbi tempus mauris condimentum arcu. Nunc in quam. Vivamus
 quis quam sed tortor euismod pellentesque. Nulla lobortis. 
Donec urna metus, adipiscing vel, iaculis vel, congue at, odio. 
Nullam et dolor id tortor tempor gravida. Curabitur eleifend

about.jsp

<%@ taglib uri="http://tiles.apache.org/tags-tiles" prefix="tiles" %>
<tiles:insertDefinition name="aboutPage" />

And finally, to make all this example a little bit more consistent, I edit my menu to put links on the home and about pages :

<div>
<ul>
	<li><a href="/tiles/home.jsp">Home</a></li>
	<li><a href="/tiles/about.jsp">About us</a></li>
	<li>Menu item 3</li>
	<li>Menu item 4</li>
	<li>Menu item 5</li>
	<li>Menu item 6</li>
</ul>
</div>

For our second page, I only have to code the body, reusing the other tiles (header, footer, and menu). Here is how the about page looks like :

The about page

The about page

Tiles inheritance

Now, looking at the configuration file, and predicting my application will grow with lots of pages using the exact same template, I see annoying redundancy in defining the pages. As an example, if all my pages use the same header, I don’t want to specify it each time I define a new page. More than that, why should I write template=”template.jsp” on each tiles definition, when I know I always use the same template?

Tiles allows the developper to inherit (extend) an abstract definition :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<!DOCTYPE tiles-definitions PUBLIC
       "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Tiles Configuration 2.0//EN"
       "http://tiles.apache.org/dtds/tiles-config_2_0.dtd">
<tiles-definitions>

    <definition name="commonPage" template="/template.jsp">
<put-attribute name="header" value="/defaultHeader.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="menu" value="/defaultMenu.jsp" />
<put-attribute name="footer" value="/defaultFooter.jsp" />
    </definition>

    <definition name="homePage" extends="commonPage">
<put-attribute name="body" value="/home_body.jsp" />
    </definition>

    <definition name="aboutPage" extends="commonPage">
<put-attribute name="body" value="/about_body.jsp" />
    </definition>

</tiles-definitions>

Tiles configuration can be manipulated in many other ways, such as using subdefinitions or nested definitions (see Apache Tiles, Nested definitions).
Next time I look upon Tiles, I probably will study how it integrates with the Spring MVC framework.

      • It’s really so, I’ve “googled” 10 hours to find the adequate tutorial to strat with tiles!
        But I’ve now a silly problem. (Perhaps because I haven’t enough time to do all of your examples)

        I tried to bootstrap your Springs an Tiles application, but I couldn’t because I’ve a mapping error(I suppose) I’ve the exeption :

        SEVERE: StandardWrapper.Throwable
        org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name ’tilesConfigurer’ defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.apache.tiles.definition.DefinitionsFactoryException: Unable to parse definitions from /WEB-INF/defs/myTilesConfigFile.xml
        at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.initializeBean

        Could you send me your directory structure?

        Thank you in anticipation

        • Hello Alice.
          I played around with my project and have been able to reproduce your problem in the case that myTilesConfigFile.xml is not found. If this definition file is really under yourProjetDirectory/WEB-INF/defs, than your tilesConfigurer definition should be as follow :

          <bean id=”tilesConfigurer” class=”org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesConfigurer”>
          <property name=”definitions”>
          <list>
          <value>/WEB-INF/defs/myTilesConfigFile.xml</value>
          </list>
          </property>
          </bean>

          If this doesn’t help, maybe you could post your applicationContext.xml content or anymore details that could help me help you. But it would be better if you do so in the comments thread of the Spring-Tiles integration post. Since there, wish you good luck :)

  4. Hi Richard,

    I too am trying to integrate Spring 2.5.6 with Tiles 2.1.2 and was very grateful to find your solution. I’ve copied your SpringTileConfigurer class but when I’m getting an exception thrown as follows. I can’t find much information about this and was wondering if you had maybe seen it yourself and may be able to help. Am I using the corret viewResolver ?

    <bean id=”viewResolver” class=”org.springframework.web.servlet.view.UrlBasedViewResolver”<
    <property name=”viewClass” value=”org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesView”/<
    </bean>

    <bean id=”tilesConfigurer” class=”com.freebee.utils.SpringTilesConfigurer”>
    <property name=”definitions”>
    <list>
    <value>WEB-INF/freebee-tiles.xml</value>
    </list>
    </property>
    </bean>

    many thanks

  5. Thanks so much, this really is the best Tiles tutorial on the whole web, bar none! Apache’s tutorial is full of mistakes, is impractical, and vague. I spent about 3 days trying to learn Tiles and fix things following Apache’s tutorial. Took about 5 minutes (no exaturation!) to get it with your tutorial!!!

  7. Hello!

    I have been working with struts2 for a while and stated I would like to start developing with Tiles2.
    Because it would help me to get rid of allot of copy and paste of code. Unfortunately Tile2 were not that easy to understand as I thought before I started. I see here that you got a pretty detailed implementation, and I tried it out for my self. But it didn’t work for me, don’t really know were I went wrong.

    Wonder if you could send me your sample code, thanks in regards!

  9. Richard,

    This is a very nice example. I’ve used an older version of tiles with struts and could not find a nicer example than yours explaining strust 2.0 way.

    great job.

  10. Great Job, this is really the best work for Tiles.
    Here is my question, how do we eliminate using 2 JSP for one
    result. In this example, we use home.jsp and home_body jsp.
    Therefore, if we have 100 pages , we will end up creating
    200 pages…Or Am I missing something here?

    Again, Good work…

  37. one noob question. In the last example that you have provided for extending an existing tile, how do we specify where the body tile is supposed to appear in the template. There are three other tiles there (head,menu,footer) so where will the body tile appear?

    Comment by Amit Rai — February 3, 2012 @ 10:14 am | Reply

  38. tried many tiles use samples – None of them working properly,.. missing methods, version incompatibilities, initialization fail,…

    Here is alternative simple and standard use of tags to reproduce the same “Tiled View” but with no tiles libraries and special XML configurations

    <!—->

    <!—->

    <!–

    OR you may dynamically assign include page url in session bean within MVC process
    ..
    // portalBean.setPageUrl(“home_body.jsp”) ;
    ..

    <jsp:include page="”>

    <!– –>

    in addition:

    any server-side logic (servlets, controllers) presented within jsp page will be processed before the include loaded into the parent frame.
    What means for instance in the case of menu, that it can be in turn dynamically processed by some menu controller and than loaded into frame placeholder

    in general
    works with JSP, ASP (ASP.NET), PHP…

  43. Many thanks for the tutorial, which is so missing in tiles doc.
    I used Tiles with Struts about 6 years ago with ease and satisfaction. Now I want to use Tiles 3 in standalone with Servlets, supposed to be the simplest way to use it. But no way to make in work after solving countless NoClassDefFound due to all jars dependencies ( comparing with sitemesh unique jar !). Very desapointed with the documentation. After half a day trying to understand the documentation and make it work. Blank page no error in logs ! I step away. This project should be removed from Apache. Its disapointing and enlighting: After years of development, projects should improve, but Tiles is getting worse and worse.
