Getting started

The base of a theme is the index file from which the main page is built. Blueriq uses a template engine called StringTemplate to make server properties available in the client.

...

Installing your custom theme is easily done by putting all files in the 

Include Page
_HomeFolderConfigLocation _HomeFolderConfigLocation

 folder. For example when a theme is created named "custom_dashboard" which consists of an index file, a JavaScript file and a CSS stylesheet, installation would be as follows:

...

1. Create a UI/mvc folder in 

   Include Page
   _HomeFolderConfigLocation _HomeFolderConfigLocation

    and put the custom index file (for example custom_dashboard.stg) here.
2. Create a webresources/mvc folder in 

   Include Page
   _HomeFolderConfigLocation _HomeFolderConfigLocation

    and put the JavaScript and CSS files here (optionally in /js and /css sub folders).
3. Add a configuration section for your custom theme to

    in 

   Include Page
   _HomeFolderConfigLocation _HomeFolderConfigLocation

    root, as described in the Configuration section below.

...

The mvc.themes or name property specifies the name for the theme which will be displayed in the Runtime theme selector. The other two properties specify which StringTemplate index file should be used and which StringTemplate function should be called to render the index page (see "Creating the index file" above). The path to the index file is relative to either the JAR/DLL or the
