Identity Manager 8.2.1 - HTML5 Development Guide

Adding plugins

Plugins are Angular libraries that are dynamically loaded at runtime. The plugins are managed by the API Server. Plugins are automatically detected by the API Server by searching the program directory for files named imx-plugin-config.json.

The following sample file specifies that the Angular plugin library ccc should be loaded into the qer-app-portal application. The name of the Angular module to be instantiated is CustomConfigModule.

{
   "qer-app-portal":[
      {
         "Container":"ccc",
         "Name":"CustomConfigModule"
      }
   ]
}

To add a plugin

  1. On the API Server, create the file imxweb\<Angular plugin library name>\imx-plugin-config.json with the following content:

    {
       "<HTML application name>":[
          {
             "Container":"<Angular plugin library name>",
             "Name":"<Angular module name>"
          }
       ]
    }

  2. Import the file into your One Identity Manager database using the Software Loader and assign it to the API Server machine role. For more information on importing files using the Software Loader, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.

  3. (Optional) To check if the HTML application loads the plugin correctly, open the <API Server URL>/imx/applications URL and check that the corresponding plugin appears at the HTML application position in the list.

Checking for missing translations

You can check HTML applications for missing translations using the ImxClient command line program. For more information about the ImxClient command line program, see the One Identity Manager API Development Guide.

To check an HTML application for missing translations

  1. Start the ImxClient command line program.

  2. In the folder you want to check for missing translations, run the check-translations command.

    This creates a report. The report shows you any files containing texts that have not yet been translated or have not been translated in full.

  3. (Optional) To add translation keys and translations, use the Designer program. For more information about translations, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

Registering HTML applications

To deploy new HTML applications for use and display them on the API Server's homepage, you must add the HTML applications to the database.

To add an HTML application to the database

  1. Start the Designer program.

  2. Connect to the relevant database.

  3. In the navigation, click the Base data > Security settings > HTML applications category.

  4. On the menu bar, click (Create a new object).

  5. Click the new entry in the list.

  6. In the Properties view, enter the HTML application data in the respective fields. Enter at least the following information:

    • Display name: Enter a name for the HTML application.

    • HTML application: Enter the path CCC/<name of your HTML application>.

    • Precompiled: Set the value to True.

Compiling and deploying Angular projects

To make an Angular project available through the API Server, you must compile the Angular project and compress it into a ZIP file.

To compile and deploy an Angular project

  1. Start a command line program.

  2. Change to the Angular workspace directory.

  3. Run the following command:

    ng build <project name>

  4. Compress the contents of the directory containing the compilation (usually dist/<project name>) into a ZIP file named Html_<project name>.zip.

  5. Copy the ZIP file to the imxweb\custom subfolder of your workspace.

  6. Import the ZIP file into your One Identity Manager database using the Software Loader and assign it to the API Server machine role. For more information on importing files using the Software Loader, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.
