Different formats for same attribute name

Niranjan_Kosaraju

Customer has multiple components (Product, Category) that use an attribute of same name "picture".

In local.properties, we can setup the Media Format for the attribute like below:

 

otmm.renderings.BITMAP.picture=3

 

Is it possible to setup different format for different components?

So, for example picture on Product will use 300Wx300H and picture on Category will use 1200Wx1200H.

Any thoughts or workarounds?

 

 

Thanks,

Niranjan

Hi Niranjan,

if you are using MediaServlet you can achieve this with a Hook implementation:

Implementation of the createMedia() method of the OtmmMediaFactory interface (See also DAMlink hybris integration - Customization And Programming Guide) 

Basically you can determine and change the format that you want to have and then call the default implementation of the createMedia() method. 

I can provide an example implementation. However the example is already based on an extension to the DAMLink hybris integration Public API, which comes with a patch to be released these days.

Btw.: The example was intended for the cmscockpit, where you have a similiar situation: The attribute name is always "media" and the hook then determines the format based on the CMS content slot info.

Best regards,
Xaver
