The table Element

...

Some types of fields can have optional attributes. A The text-area field accepts height and width as optional attributes. The height and width attributes should be numerical and their values should be in pixels. The text field accepts url as an optional attribute. Setting url="true" displays the text as a URL instead of as a plain text box.

Code Block
<field type="options"> <name>States<<name>states</name> <values> <value>Created</value> <value>Tested</value> <value>Deployed</value> <value>Deprecated</value> </values> </field>

Code Block
<field type="options">
     <name label="Lifecycle Name">Lifecycle Name<>lifecycle_name</name>
</field>
Info

The label is the text that appears on the browser UI, whereas the name is the actual name of what is being stored on the repository, in XML format.
The label is optional. If it is not defined, the name is used instead.

Info

The label can have characters such as spaces, parentheses, uppercase letters etc., whereas the name cannot have those.

...

This is the root element of the new artifact which is being defined. It has several attributes:

  • type - Defines the media type of the artifact. The type format should be application/vnd.[SOMENAME]+xml. SOMENAME can contain any alphanumeric character, "-" (hyphen), or "." (period).

    shortName - Short name of the artifact. Only lower case characters are allowed
    Info

     Use the following pattern when defining the media type of custom RXTs:  application/[a-zA-Z0-9.+-]+

  • shortName - Short name of the artifact. Only lower case characters are allowed in the short name. This value cannot be modified once the RXT is added into the WSO2 Governance Registry.
  • singularLabel - Singular label of the artifact
  • pluralLabel - Plural label of the artifact
  • hasNamespace - Defines whether the artifact has a namespace (boolean)
  • iconSet - Icon set number used for the artifact icons

...

Info

You cannot have the (~!@#;%^*()+={}|\<>"',) characters in the value of the unique fields within that are defined in the storagePath element in the RXT. Hence, you need to add a validation for the field definitions of those fields. For example, consider the following storage path.

Code Block
languagexml
<storagePath>/gadgets/@
{overview_provider}
/@
{overview_name}
/@
{overview_version}
</storagePath>

The validations required for the following storage path are as follows:

Code Block
languagexml
...............
<content>
<table name="Overview">
<field type="text" required="true">
<name>Provider</name>
</field>
<field type="text" required="true" validate="^([a-zA-Z0-9_\s\-]*)$">
<name>Name</name>
</field>
........................
Note

When choosing attributes for the storagePath of an RXT, choose attributes, which have unique and static values. Also, mark those fields as read-only since you should not change the values of them after creating the asset.

Code Block
languagexml
titleExample:
<field type="text" required="true" readonly="true">
<name>Provider</name>
</field>
<field type="text" required="true" readonly="true" validate="^([a-zA-Z0-9_\s\-]*)$">
<name>Name</name>
</field>
