Get themeDisplay object from rest module
Junior Member Posts: 44 Join Date: 12/18/19 Recent Posts
Hello! Could you help me please
I have a problem with getting themeDisplay object from rest liferay module.

@GET
@Path("/evening")
@Produces("text/plain")
public String helloevening() {
// Here I need to get themeDisplay object
return "Good evening!";
}
I need it to get analyticsScripts from the Configuration -> site settings ->  Advanced -> Analytics section. Get them all and return them as a response of rest call.
Any ideas?
​​​​​​​
Thank you!

There's your actual question: You need the configuration values, not the ThemeDisplay.
I'd check the module that holds this configuration, see what's exported and what API is available.
You can either load the same configuration if everything is exported (e.g. by referencing it with the name it's registered) or access the API to query for the values you need.
ThemeDisplay is a concept for pages served by Liferay - and a REST call is not for a page, has no theme, etc - thus the subject clearly points to a XY-Problem that you shouldn't persue any longer.

Good ideas!

I noticed that these scripts are loaded in html -> common -> themes - > top_js.jsp. The start point is layout object and I thought I can use ThemeDisplay to get layout and then achieve scripts like it is described in that file
