Build UI using ZK Framework.
In the Part 5 article, we have completed our DAO and service Layer. In this post, we will create our Presentation Layer using ZK Framework.
Now let us design the Listing Page which will show all the records from the DB. And also, we will have one Add New button to add new record and for each record, we will have “EDIT”, “View” and “Delete” button as shown here.
Step 1:
Now select the webapp folder and right click-> Select New->Other->Zul file and enter the name of the zul file as UserList.zul
Copy the below code.
<?init class="org.zkoss.zkplus.databind.AnnotateDataBinderInit" arg0="./userList" ?>
<window width="100%" border="none" id="userList"
apply="crudexample.controller.UserListContrroller">
<separator />
<separator />
<div width="100%">
<div sclass="sectionTitle">
<separator />
<label value="Address Book" sclass="sectionTitleLabel" />
<separator />
</div>
<div style="float:right">
<button label="Add New" mold="trendy" id="btnNew"
sclass="mybutton button blue small" />
</div>
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
<div sclass="sectionSeperator"></div>
</div>
<separator />
<listbox id="UserListbox" model="@{controller.appUsersList}"
selectedItem="@{controller.selectedUser}" multiple="false"
emptyMessage="No User found in the database">
<listhead sizable="true">
<listheader label="User ID" sort="auto" />
<listheader label="Last Name" sort="auto" />
<listheader label="First Name" sort="auto" />
<listheader label="Action" />
</listhead>
<listitem self="@{each='users'}" value="@{users}"
forward="onDoubleClick=onDoubleClickedPersonItem">
<listcell label="@{users.userID}" />
<listcell label="@{users.lastName}" />
<listcell label="@{users.firstName}" />
<listcell>
<hbox spacing="20px">
<button label="Edit" forward="onClick=UserListbox.onEdit" mold="trendy" />
<button label="View" forward="onClick=UserListbox.onView" mold="trendy" />
<button label="Delete" forward="onClick=UserListbox.onDelete" mold="trendy" />
</hbox>
</listcell>
</listitem>
</listbox>
</window>
Step 2:
Next we will define the controller for the above zul file. Select the package “crudexample”, right click –> Select New->Other->Package. Enter the package name as “controller”. Then select the newly created package controller and right click->Select New->Other->Class and enter the class name as “UserListContrroller”
Here is the code

setAppUsers(curUser);
Messagebox.show("Are you sure to delete the user..?", "Question",

}
}
Step 3:
Next we will create our CRUD Screen where we will add/edit new users. Now select the webapp folder and right click-> Select New->Other->Zul file and enter the name of the zul file as UserCRUD.zul
Copy the below code.
<?init class="org.zkoss.zkplus.databind.AnnotateDataBinderInit" arg0="./userCRUD" ?>
<zk>
<window title="Users" id="userCRUD" border="normal" width="30%"
apply="crudexample.controller.UserCRUDController" mode="modal"
maximizable="false" closable="true" sclass="mymodal">
<panel width="100%">
<panelchildren>
<separator />
<grid sclass="vgrid">
<columns>
<column></column>
</columns>
<rows>
<row>
<vlayout>
<label value="First Name" />
<textbox id="firstName" hflex="1"
value="@{controller.selectedUser.firstName, access='both', save-when='none'}"
readonly="@{controller.makeAsReadOnly}" mold="rounded" />
</vlayout>
</row>
<row>
<vlayout>
<label value="Last Name" />
<textbox id="LastName" hflex="1"
value="@{controller.selectedUser.lastName, access='both', save-when='none'}"
readonly="@{controller.makeAsReadOnly}" mold="rounded" />
</vlayout>
</row>
<row>

<separator />
<div align="center">
<button label="Save" mold="trendy" id="save"
sclass="mybutton button blue small" />
<button label="Cancel" mold="trendy" id="cancel"
sclass="mybutton button blue small" />
</div>
<separator />
</window>
</zk>
Step 4:
Next we will define the controller for the above zul file. Select the package controller and right click->Select New->Other->Class and enter the class name as “UserCRUDController”
Here is the code
package crudexample.controller;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component;
import org.zkoss.zk.ui.Execution;
import org.zkoss.zk.ui.Executions;

import org.zkoss.zkplus.spring.SpringUtil;
import org.zkoss.zul.Button;
import org.zkoss.zul.Window;
import crudexample.domain.Appusers;
import crudexample.service.CRUDService;
@SuppressWarnings({ "rawtypes", "serial" })
public class UserCRUDController extends GenericForwardComposer {
@WireVariable
private CRUDService CRUDService;
private Appusers selectedUser;
private String recordMode;
private AnnotateDataBinder binder;
protected Window userCRUD; // autowired
protected Button save; // autowired
protected Button cancel; // autowired
private Window parentWindow;
private boolean makeAsReadOnly;
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Override
public void doAfterCompose(Component comp) throws Exception {
super.doAfterCompose(comp);
CRUDService = (CRUDService) SpringUtil.getBean("CRUDService");
this.self.setAttribute("controller", this, false);
final Execution execution = Executions.getCurrent();
setSelectedUser((Appusers) execution.getArg().get("selectedRecord"));
setRecordMode((String) execution.getArg().get("recordMode"));
setParentWindow((Window) execution.getArg().get("parentWindow"));
setMakeAsReadOnly(false);
if (recordMode.equals("NEW")) {
this.selectedUser = new Appusers();
}
if (recordMode.equals("EDIT")) {
this.selectedUser = getSelectedUser();
}
if (recordMode == "READ") {
setMakeAsReadOnly(true);
save.setVisible(false);
cancel.setLabel("Ok");
this.selectedUser = getSelectedUser();
userCRUD.setTitle(userCRUD.getTitle() + " (Readonly)");
}
}
public void onCreate(Event event) {
this.binder = (AnnotateDataBinder) event.getTarget().getAttribute(
"binder", true);
}
public void onClick$save(Event event) {
Map<String, Object> args = new HashMap<String, Object>();
binder.saveAll();
CRUDService.save(this.selectedUser);
userCRUD.detach();
args.put("selectedRecord", getSelectedUser());
args.put("recordMode", this.recordMode);
Events.sendEvent(new Event("onSaved", parentWindow,args));
}
public void onClick$cancel(Event event) {
userCRUD.detach();
}
public Appusers getSelectedUser() {
return selectedUser;
}
public void setSelectedUser(Appusers selectedUser) {
this.selectedUser = selectedUser;
}
public String getRecordMode() {
return recordMode;
}
public void setRecordMode(String recordMode) {
this.recordMode = recordMode;
}
public Window getParentWindow() {
return parentWindow;
}
public void setParentWindow(Window parentWindow) {
this.parentWindow = parentWindow;
}
public boolean isMakeAsReadOnly() {
return makeAsReadOnly;
}
public void setMakeAsReadOnly(boolean makeAsReadOnly) {
this.makeAsReadOnly = makeAsReadOnly;
}
}
That’s all. Now you can select the userlist.zul and run using tomcat server.
Output:
We have completed all our CRUD operation. Now we will see how to override the default ZK CSS and change the look and feel our application.
Changing the style of any ZK Component is pretty easy, all we need to override the css class and define our CSS Properties. There are different ways to you can change the CSS as described here. In this , we are going to define sclass styling.
First let us create the following two folders in webapp folder. Folders are “css” and “images” as shown.
Under the folder css, let us create css file named as “style.css” and copy the code from here.
Now let us refer the above CSS in our project. In order to do, please do the following steps.
1. Add ZKAddon.xml(it can be any name), under the webapp folder as shown
Copy the below code.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<language-addon>
<addon-name>myaddon</addon-name>
<language-name>xul/html</language-name>
<stylesheet href="/css/style.css" type="text/css" />
</language-addon>
2. Open the zk.xml and add the following line
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<zk>
<language-config>
<addon-uri>/ZKAddon.xml</addon-uri>
</language-config>
</zk>
Finally, instead of the button, we will use image for the action. Change as follows.
Modify the userList.zul as follows<?init class="org.zkoss.zkplus.databind.AnnotateDataBinderInit" arg0="./userList" ?>
<window width="100%" border="none" id="userList"
apply="crudexample.controller.UserListContrroller">
<separator />
<separator />
<div width="100%">
<div sclass="sectionTitle">
<separator />
<label value="Address Book" sclass="sectionTitleLabel" />
<separator />
</div>
<div style="float:right">
<button label="Add New" mold="trendy" id="btnNew"
sclass="mybutton button blue small" />
</div>
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
<div sclass="sectionSeperator"></div>
</div>
<separator />
<listbox id="UserListbox" model="@{controller.appUsersList}"
sclass="mylist" selectedItem="@{controller.selectedUser}"
multiple="false" emptyMessage="No User found in the database">
<listhead sizable="true">

</listhead>
<listitem self="@{each='users'}" value="@{users}"
forward="onDoubleClick=onDoubleClickedPersonItem">
<listcell label="@{users.userID}" />
<listcell label="@{users.lastName}" />
<listcell label="@{users.firstName}" />
<listcell>
<hbox spacing="20px">
<image forward="onClick=UserListbox.onEdit"
sclass="fimageedit">
</image>
<image forward="onClick=UserListbox.onView"
sclass="fimageView">
</image>
<image forward="onClick=UserListbox.onDelete"
sclass="fimageDelete">
</image>
</hbox>
</listcell>
</listitem>
</listbox>
</window>
