A theme consists of UI elements such as logos, images, copyrights messages, landing page text, background colors etc. WSO2 API Store comes with a default theme.
...
Because a main theme already has most of the UIs and the syntax and logic of Jaggery code defined, in a typical scenario, you do not have to implement a theme from scratch. Rather, you just add in your edits as a sub theme of the existing main theme . as given below:
- Download the default main theme from here, unzip it and rename the folder according to the name of your new theme (e.g., ancient). Let's call this folder the
<THEME_HOME>
. - To change the logo of the API Store, replace the
logo.png
file inside the<THEME_HOME>/images
folder with this logo (or anything else of your choice.). - To change the copyrights note in the footer, open the
<THEME_HOME>
/templates/page/base/
file using a text editor, search for the word "Copyright" and change the text. For example, let's add our company name as "copyright", "© Copyright 2011 – 2014 My Company."template.jag
To change the header's background background color, open the
<THEME_HOME>/
css/styles-layout.css
file using a text editor and add the following CSS rule to the end of the file. It changes the header color to red.Code Block language css .header-menu div.navbar-inner div.container-fluid{ background:red; }
Changing the pages of the API Store
Go to <THEME_HOME>/site/pages
folder where you find the pages of the API Store. These pages are common to all the themes. Duplicate the sign-up.jag
file and rename it to about.jag
.
Open the "about.jag" file you just created.
Adding the new theme to the Themes menu
Once you are done modifying the new theme, add it to the Themes menu in the API Store along with a thumbnail image as follows:
- Open the
<THEME_HOME>/
templates/user/login/template.jag
file and find the HTML table that defines the theme thumbnails. Add a new row to under the table <table> element with the following markup. For example, we use this code. It adds thumb-ancient.png as the thumbnail image of our theme. You can change it as you needBe sure save the image in the
<THEME_HOME>/images
folder.Code Block language xml <tr> <td> <div class="thumbnail <% if(jagg.getUserTheme().base == "fancy" && jagg.getUserTheme().subtheme == "ancient") { %>currentTheme<% } %>"> <a data-theme="fancy" data-subtheme="ancient" class="badge themeLabel" onclick="applyTheme(this)"> <img src="<%=jagg.getAbsoluteUrl(jagg.getThemeFile("images/thumb-ancient.png"))%>" /> <br /><div class="themeName">Ancient</div> </a> </div> </td> <td> </td> </tr>
Setting the new theme as the default theme
You can set your new theme as the default theme in two ways:
- Using the file system
- Using the workflow admin the Admin Dashboard Web application
If you have access to the file system, open open the <APIM_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/jaggeryapps/store/site/conf/site.json
file and add the following code to it.
...
It specifies the base theme as fancy
, which is overridden by the sub theme ancient
. As you specify a subtheme element here, the base theme is overridden by it.
If you do not have access to the file system,
- Bundle your theme folder, which is
<THEME_HOME>
into a ZIP file (e.g.,ancient.zip
). - Logging into the WSO2 Workflow AdminWeb the WSO2 Admin Dashboard Web application (
https://<Server Host>:9443/workflowadmin-admindashboard
) as the tenant admin. For example, if you are on WSO2 Cloud, access the URL api.cloud.wso2.com/admin. -dashboard to log in to the Admin Dashboard.
