Overview
|
|
The WebMethods menu on the left hand side has a series of menu sections and menu items.
These are controlled by a series of services in the package (contained within package WmRoot):
The main service which results in all the menu iteams is called wm.server.ui:mainMenu. You can view the results of this service by:
1) going to the console
2) Project Management
3) Package WmRoot
4) Browse services for this package
5) Execute it.
You will also see on this page a list of services available. However do not use the services to create the menu items. |
Solution
To add your own custom menu link, create 3 services in WebMethods Developer.
- addSolution
- removeSolution
- callback
The process:
- The first two services need to call services called wm.server.ui.addSolution or wm.server.ui.removeSolution respectively.
- For the callback parameter, make them point to your callback service. e.g. zzDavid.davidTest.menuAdmin:callback
- Note: to create this flow service create any service and manually change its General -> Service property on the right.
- For the callback service place a MAP step and add the following parameters:
| Name |
Description |
Value |
| name |
Description of menu |
WmUnit |
| text |
The text to display |
WmUnit |
| url |
The url link |
../WmUnit.dsp |
| target |
The target link to display |
WmUnit.dsp |
- Run the Add service to create a menu item which will by default go into the Solutions menu section
- Note the 3 periods (...) are automatically appended at the end of the text name
- Use the Remove service with the same callback parameters to remove the menu item
