This module is used to store and edit template contents for the text templating system of the ABP framework. So, you may need to understand it to better understand the purpose of this module.
There are different use cases of the text templating system. For example, the Account Module is using it to define templates for sending emails when it needs to send emails to users (like sending "password reset link" email). This module provides UI to easily edit these email templates.
See the module description page for an overview of the module features.
Text Template Management module is pre-installed in the startup templates. So, no need to manually install it.
This module follows the module development best practices guide and consists of several NuGet and NPM packages. See the guide if you want to understand the packages and relations between them.
You can visit Text Template Management module package list page to see list of packages related with this module.
Text Template Management module adds the following items to the "Main" menu, under the "Administration" menu item:
- Text Templates: List, view and filter text templates.
TextTemplateManagementMainMenuNames
class has the constants for the menu item names.
Text Templates page is used to view the list of templates defined in the application.
Click to the Actions -> Edit Contents
to edit content for a template. There are two types of UI to edit a template content:
This kind of templates uses the L
function to perform inline localization. In this way, it is easier to manage the template for different cultures.
This kind of templates provides different content for each culture. In this way, you can define a completely different content for a specific culture.
TextTemplateManagementOptions
can be used to configure the module. You can use the below code to configure it in the ConfigureServices method of your module (eg: BookStoreApplicationModule).
Configure<TextTemplateManagementOptions>(options =>
{
options.MinimumCacheDuration = TimeSpan.FromHours(1);
});
DatabaseTemplateContentContributor
caches template contents to increase performance.
You can get cache store by injecting IDistributedCache<string, TemplateContentCacheKey>
.
For more information, please check the Caching guide.
TemplateContentCacheKey
is a special cache key for template contents.
It has TemplateDefinitionName
and Culture
properties.
This module doesn't seed any data.
This module follows the Entity Best Practices & Conventions guide.
TextTemplateContent
(aggregate root): Represents a content of text template.
This module follows the Repository Best Practices & Conventions guide.
Following custom repositories are defined for this module:
ITextTemplateContentRepository
This module follows the Domain Services Best Practices & Conventions guide.
DatabaseTemplateContentContributor
is used by ITemplateContentProvider
to get template contents that stored in DB and Cache.
This module doesn't define any setting.
TemplateDefinitionAppService
(implementsITemplateDefinitionAppService
): Implements the use cases of the text template management UI.TemplateContentAppService
(implementsITemplateContentAppService
): Implements the use cases of the text template management UI.
All tables/collections use the Abp
prefix by default. Set static properties on the TextTemplateManagementDbProperties
class if you need to change the table prefix or set a schema name (if supported by your database provider).
This module uses TextTemplateManagement
for the connection string name. If you don't define a connection string with this name, it fallbacks to the Default
connection string.
See the connection strings documentation for details.
- AbpTextTemplateContents
- AbpTextTemplateContents
See the TextTemplateManagementPermissions
class members for all permissions defined for this module.
In order to configure the application to use the TextTemplateManagementModule
, you first need to import TextTemplateManagementConfigModule
from @volo/abp.ng.text-template-management/config
to root module. TextTemplateManagementConfigModule
has a static forRoot
method which you should call for a proper configuration.
// app.module.ts
import { TextTemplateManagementConfigModule } from '@volo/abp.ng.text-template-management/config';
@NgModule({
imports: [
// other imports
TextTemplateManagementConfigModule.forRoot(),
// other imports
],
// ...
})
export class AppModule {}
The TextTemplateManagementModule
should be imported and lazy-loaded in your routing module. It has a static forLazy
method for configuration. Available options are listed below. It is available for import from @volo/abp.ng.text-template-management
.
// app-routing.module.ts
const routes: Routes = [
// other route definitions
{
path: 'text-template-management',
loadChildren: () =>
import('@volo/abp.ng.text-template-management').then(m => m.TextTemplateManagementModule.forLazy(/* options here */)),
},
];
@NgModule(/* AppRoutingModule metadata */)
export class AppRoutingModule {}
If you have generated your project via the startup template, you do not have to do anything, because it already has both
TextTemplateManagementConfigModule
andTextTemplateManagementModule
.
You can modify the look and behavior of the module pages by passing the following options to TextTemplateManagementModule.forLazy
static method:
- entityActionContributors: Changes grid actions. Please check Entity Action Extensions for Angular for details.
- toolbarActionContributors: Changes page toolbar. Please check Page Toolbar Extensions for Angular for details.
- entityPropContributors: Changes table columns. Please check Data Table Column Extensions for Angular for details.
Text Template Management module services and models are generated via generate-proxy
command of the ABP CLI. If you need the module's proxies, you can run the following command in the Angular project directory:
abp generate-proxy --module textTemplateManagement
eTextTemplateManagementComponents
enum provides all replaceable component keys. It is available for import from @volo/abp.ng.text-template-management
.
Please check Component Replacement document for details.
The Text Template Management module remote endpoint URL can be configured in the environment files.
export const environment = {
// other configurations
apis: {
default: {
url: 'default url here',
},
TextTemplateManagement: {
url: 'Text Template Management remote url here'
}
// other api configurations
},
};
The Text Template Management module remote URL configuration shown above is optional. If you don't set a URL, the default.url
will be used as fallback.
This module doesn't define any additional distributed event. See the standard distributed events.
