Sub-tags

Name	Type	Cardinality	Default	Description
extent	boolean	0..1	true	Should the current extent be includable in the bookmark?
layers	boolean	0..1	true	Should the current ToC content be includable in the bookmark?
redlines	boolean	0..1	true	Should the current redlines be includable in the bookmark?
entity	boolean	0..1	true	Should the current active entity be includable in the bookmark?
selection	boolean	0..1	true	Should the selection for the active entity be includable in the bookmark?

categories	boolean	0..1	true	Disable the use of categories. You only need to set this attribute (to false) if you have configured the bookmarks to include categories but you want to include one of the bookmark tools in a client without the categories. If you have not configured a data definition for the categories in the bookmark config then this flag will not do anything, regardless of it being set to true or false.
groups	boolean	0..1	true	Disable the use of groups, you only need to set this attribute (to false) if you have configured the bookmarks to include groups but you want to include one of the bookmark tools in a client without the groups. If you have not configured a data definition for the groups in the bookmark config then this flag will not do anything, regardless of it being set to true or false.

baseUrl	URL	0..1		Overwrite base URL when generating a shared bookmark. It will use the URL used to start the client if not specified.

create	boolean	0..1	true	Should the "Create Bookmark" option be included in the menu?
publish	boolean	0..1	true - if the user is logged in false - if the user is anonymous	Should the "Publish Bookmark" option be included in the menu? Note that this also determines if the publishing functions are included in the Bookmark Manager unless the `publisher` flag is used to override it.
publisher	boolean	0..1	taken from `publish`	Should the publishing functionality be included in the Bookmark Manager?
published	boolean	0..1	true	Should the published bookmarks themselves be included in the menu?
share	boolean	0..1	true - if the user is logged in false - if the user is anonymous	Should the "Share Bookmark" option be included in the menu?
manage	boolean	0..1	true - if the user has persistent storage available false - if the user does not have persistent storage available	Should the "Manage Bookmarks" option be included in the menu?

warning	boolean	0..1	true	Should delete actions be verified?
grouped	boolean	0..1	false	Changes the way groups are displayed This pre-dates the addition of the `groups` and `categories` properties (added in 2.5.29) and switches between grouping bookmarks based on the user id or just including the user id in the text.

Persistent storage - If the user is logged in they will have persistent storage available. The information is sent to the server for storage against their user id, and so their bookmarks will be available from any browser the user logs in from. If, however, the user is not logged in, they may still have persistent storage available if their web browser supports it, which these days is more than likely. But it means that their bookmarks will only be available if they use the same browser that they created the bookmark in.

Examples

Grouping published bookmarks

To group published bookmarks under sub-menus you need to create one or two data definitions, depending upon how many levels you're after, that contain the list of groups that should be available. And then create a bookmark:config item to tell Weave that it should use those data definitions when handing the categories and/or groups.

Categories are the top level groupings and the groups are the second level.

The following is an example of two inline data definitions that will contain the data definition used for the bookmark samples following it. They do not have to be inline data definitions, any data definition type will work, but their use here makes it easier to follow this example.

Bookmark grouping data definitions

The following example configuration file shows an entire file containing all the parts required to setup the bookmark category and grouping configuration which will the be used by any of the bookmark tools you add to the client. Note that this example is assuming that you'll be using both categories and groups, if you're only using one you only need to define one data definition and include that in the bookmarks:config (either the categories or groups tag).

Bookmark action examples

These example are just snippets showing what would need to be added to a client config to include the bookmark tool in a client toolbar. The category and grouping information is provided by the configuration example above, but the tools can also be configured using the attributes defined in the table above.

Default bookmark tool (if the bookmark config contains settings for categories and/or group they will be used, if it doesn't then they won't be used)

<item action="weave.bookmark"/>

Disable the use of categories in the tool (only of use if you've configured a data definition for categories in the bookmark config but don't want to use it)

<item action="weave.bookmark" categories="false"/>

Disable any folders in bookmarks (only of use if you've defined data definition for categories and groups in the bookmark config but don't want to use them)

<item action="weave.bookmark" categories="false" groups="false"/>
