Version 3.7.0

Released on March 28, 2024.

You can resolve Blossom dialogs at render time to make use of the component’s model (its dialog fields in the template script or controller).

This is possible due to refactoring of the DialogDefinition creation by removing the DialogCreatorDefinitionDecorator.

See BLOSSOM-322 for more details.

Version 3.4.7

Released on November 15, 2021.

This version merges the samples Git repository into the blossom repository and enables a regular, automatic CVE scan for known vulnerabilities.

The following dependencies have been updated:

  • Spring framework to 5.1.18.RELEASE.

  • Spring webflow to 2.4.8.RELEASE.

  • Hibernate validator to 6.1.5.Final.

See BLOSSOM-268 for details.

Source repository

Version 3.4.6

Released on October 9, 2021.

This version fixes a critical issue affecting the 6 UI Pages app, injecting incorrect node and contextual information into dialogs. See BLOSSOM-282 for details.

Source repository

Version 3.4.5

Released on August 3, 2021.

This version, brought about by BLOSSOM-276, expands support for the Magnolia 6 UI framework:

  • Node and node path are now available in DialogCreationContext, as well as for injection into dialog factories. This facilitates migration to 6.2 and the 6 UI Pages app.

  • DialogCreationContext#getItem() is now deprecated without replacement.

  • The formDialogPresenterClass in the configuration of the module remains ignored in the 6 UI apps.

Source repository

Version 3.4.4

Released on November 12, 2020.

This version improves observation, by filtering out JCR changes in content versions. Read on in the 6.2.4 release notes.

  • BLOSSOM-278 CLONE - Version events fired in all workspaces

Source repository

Version 3.4.3

Released on July 15, 2020.

This version furthers the improvements integrated in version 3.4.2 by enabling dialogs also in custom 5 UI content apps, in addition to support for dialogs in the 5 UI and 6 UI Pages apps. Previously, app names were used primarily due to missing APIs exposing the current AppDescriptor and its type. This limitation in the UI framework has been lifted with MGNLUI-5964 - Expose running app contexts via AppController.

This module version requires Magnolia 6.2.2 or later.

  • BLOSSOM-274 Dialog creation is no longer supported in custom content apps

Source repository

Version 3.4.2

Released on June 11, 2020.

This version fixes an error with Blossom definitions in the Definitions app. In relation to definitions, DefinitionMetadata’s module name is now inferred as blossom when @Template and @DialogFactory’s id are not formed as <module>:<name>. This does not impact the coordinates in the registries. The id attribute is fixed and prevails in Blossom registrations. Finally, this module update removes a minor definition issue where a non-existing type property was configured (and ignored) in Blossom’s renderer configuration.

  • BLOSSOM-272 DialogCreatorDefinitionDecorator is wrongly applied in Definitions app, may produce NPEs

Source repository

Version 3.4.1

Released on June 10, 2020.

Besides improving definition logging, this release fixes an issue affecting the DialogCreationContext attributes. The attributes were not initialized properly in the Magnolia compatibility Pages app.

  • BLOSSOM-267 Harmonize the definition logging for Blossom

  • BLOSSOM-269 DialogCreationContext attributes are not initialized

Source repository

Version 3.4

Released on May 19, 2020.

  • BLOSSOM-257 The module has been adapted for the 6.2 branch of Magnolia.

    • It has been migrated to the 6 UI framework (non-compatibility), but old-style compatibility dialogs can still be registered.

    • The module provides support for simple dialogs configured by code.

    • Dialog factories are forward-compatible with Magnolia 6.2.

  • BLOSSOM-261 Usages of the SiteAwareFreemarkerRenderer extension (deprecated and removed) replaced with the equivalent site-aware wrapper.

    • SiteAwareFreemarkerTemplateViewRenderer is now deprecated and kept only for backward compatibility. The current equivalent is the FreemarkerTemplateViewRenderer. Use the SiteAwareFreemarkerTemplateViewRendererFactoryBean instead.

    • The FactoryBean does the wrapping of the FreemarkerTemplateViewRenderer with SiteAwareRendererWrapper and generalizes its generic typing to the Renderer interface.

    • Similarly for the non site-aware FreemarkerTemplateViewRenderer, it must now be registered by its respective factory-bean FreemarkerTemplateViewRendererFactoryBean. Its constructor now injects Magnolia’s FreemarkerHelper and RenderingEngine, and we don’t expose these to Spring by default.
