Configuration

This part contains the options to customize ButterFaces by editing web.xml.

HINT with version 2.0.0 web.xml parameters has been renamed from de.larmic.butterfaces.x to org.butterfaces.x

Using of jQuery

As default ButterFaces comes with an actual version of jQuery 3.x. To disable ButterFaces jQuery version because of using your own version you have to change following parameter

<context-param>
    <param-name>org.butterfaces.provideJQuery</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>

Using of Bootstrap

As default ButterFaces comes with an actual version of Bootstrap 3.x. To disable ButterFaces Boostrap version because of using your own version you have to change following parameter

<context-param>
    <param-name>org.butterfaces.provideBootstrap</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>

Ajax configuration

(since 1.11.1)

b:commandLink components comes with ajaxDisableRenderRegionsOnRequest to crossfade render regions while ajax request is running. To configure this for global usage add following parameter

<context-param>
    <param-name>org.butterfaces.ajaxDisableRenderRegionsOnRequest</param-name>
    <param-value>false</param-value>
</context-param>

This can be useful if you are using b:waitingPanel to disable b:commandLink support and to prevent multiple crossfade windows.

Auto trim input fields

(since 2.0.0)

By default all input fields will be trimed after submit.

<context-param>
    <param-name>org.butterfaces.autoTrimInputFields</param-name>
    <param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>org.butterfaces.maxLengthText</param-name>

</context-param>

    <param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

Resourcehandling

Each components comes up with it's own javascript and css resources. If you want to use ButterFaces resources (i.e. Bootstrap or jQuery) without any ButterFaces component use b:activateLibraries to load all resources to html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en"
      xmlns:h="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/html"
      xmlns:ui="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/facelets"
      xmlns:b="http://butterfaces.org/components"
      xmlns:f="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/core">
      ...
    <b:activateLibraries />
</html>

This tags add javascript and css resources for all existing components. In addition to that you may activate compression by web.xml

<context-param>
    <param-name>org.butterfaces.useCompressedResources</param-name>
    <param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

HINT This only works if you are using

<context-param>
    <param-name>javax.faces.PROJECT_STAGE</param-name>
    <param-value>Production</param-value>
</context-param>

When using Developmentresource will always provided as non minified and compressed. Likewise sourcemaps will be supplied to enable javascript debugging.
