Pretty URLs in Wicket without mount-path

Question

The Problem: Using one of Wickets url mounting strategies i can do the following url (as an example)

http://somedomain.com/mount-path/desiredname

what i would like to do is

http://somedomain.com/desiredname

desiredname would be e.g. pages or posts. But with Wicket I must use a mount-path first.

Can anybody point me into the right direction, either using a different mounting strategy or a filter setup.

E.g a fallback class for all urls within somedomain.com, from thereone the code should be simple.

thanks.

Answer 1

But if you map your Wicket Filter to "/", won't it work as you expect?

If not, this is probably what you need:

Answer 2

You might try to use Wicketstuff annotation library

@MountPath(path = "/")
@MountMixedParam(parameterNames = { "action", "accountID" })

Also you can implement custom AbstractRequestTargetUrlCodingStrategy

I'm not sure in this advices.

Answer 3

I'm pretty sure this blog post answers your question :)
