How to customize a wso2is PAP?

Question

is there any way to adjust existing PAPs of wso2is to improve the user experience?

I dont wanna change logos or stuff like that, I want to implement some kind of shortcut buttons into an existing PAP.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

Yes. It is possible, If you need to do some changes to management console UI. You need to change org.wso2.carbon.identity.entitlement.ui bundle. Let me tell you how to do it..

If it is just a JSP file changes, You can locate theorg.wso2.carbon.identity.entitlement.ui bundle from the repository/components/plugins directory. And edit your jsp file and update the jar file. Then once you restart the server, you can see the modified UI.

If it is some java source changes. You need to compile the jar file again...

1. find the version of org.wso2.carbon.identity.entitlement.ui file and locate the source of it from here

2. SVN Co the source and build it using Maven 3.0

3. Then you can do the changes and build the jar file again.

4. Copy and replace the existing jar file and Restart the server.

Also, you can write your own UI using the PAP web service API. In WSO2 IS UI calls the BE API to get the functions done, Therefore you can write your own UI by automating these web service API. You can find more details from here
