Description

This improvement offer the possibility to use a shortener url to call ofbiz when it render a url.

The origin requirement is to send by email a url to contact OFBiz without any information on technical or functionnal context like JWToken, userLogin, orderId, partyId and so on. OFBiz forward only a short reference that match the actual uri wanted.

Example :

• ecommerce/myaccount/order/ORD10034 -> s/tiozerzaze
• ecommerce/myaccount?token=JWT[more..than..100]axdr&userLoginId=[e-mail] -> s/epsserlner

When a request arrive in OFBiz with the pattern

 s/{shortener}

, the request handler forward to matched uri.

To generate a shortener on freemarker template just use it like it :

   <@ofbizUrl pathShortener="true">${MyBigUriToSecure}</@ofbizUrl>

For email template it's ugly recommand to use webSiteId and fullPath

   <@ofbizUrl webSiteId="MyWebSite" fullPath="true" pathShortener="true">${MyBigUriToSecure}</@ofbizUrl>

With this you can have a url like this : https://mywebsite.mydomain/s/rytedqzdfd

At this time only *<@ofbizUrl *macro freemarker support it.
