Dojo component Template.html not loading

Vote:
 

I have a custom dojo component with a Template.html file. It seems to be trying to load the Template file from /Episerver/Shell rather than from my component location.

Files are in wwwroot as follows:

DateTextBoxUtc.js

define('Epik/Editors/DateTextBoxUtc/DateTextBoxUtc', [
		'dojo/_base/array',
		'dojo/_base/connect',
		'dojo/_base/declare',
		'dojo/_base/lang',
		'dijit/_CssStateMixin',
		'dijit/_Widget',
		'dijit/_TemplatedMixin',
		'dijit/_WidgetsInTemplateMixin',
		'dijit/dijit', // loads the optimized dijit layer
		'dijit/Calendar',
		'dijit/form/DateTextBox',
		'dijit/form/ValidationTextBox',
		'dojo/text!./Template.html',
		'epi/epi'
	],
	function(
		array,
		connect,
		declare,
		lang,
		_CssStateMixin,
		_Widget,
		_TemplatedMixin,
		_WidgetsInTemplateMixin,
		dijit,
		Calendar,
		DateTextBox,
		TextBox,
		template,
		epi
	) {

		return declare([_Widget, _TemplatedMixin, _WidgetsInTemplateMixin, _CssStateMixin],
			{
				templateString: template,

				postCreate: function() {
					this.set('value', this.value);
					this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.set('value', this.value);

					// Init textarea and bind event
					this.connect(this.dateInputWidgetTextbox, 'onClick', this._onbutton);
					this.connect(this.dateInputWidgetCalendar, 'onValueSelected', this._onCalendar);
					this.connect(this.dateInputWidgetTextbox, 'onKeyPress', this._onTextAreaPress);
					this.connect(this.dateInputWidgetTextbox, 'onBlur', this._onChange);
				},

				_onIntermediateChange: function(event) {
					if (this.intermediateChanges) {
						this._set('value', event.target.value);
						this.onChange(this.value);
					}
				},

				// Setter for value property
				_setValueAttr: function(value) {
					this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.set('value', value);
					this._set('value', value);
				},

				// Setter for intermediateChanges
				_setIntermediateChangesAttr: function(value) {
					this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.set('intermediateChanges', value);
					this._set('intermediateChanges', value);
				},

				// Event handler for textarea
				_onbutton: function() {
					this.dateInputWidgetCalendar.set('style', 'display:block!important');
				},

				_onCalendar: function(date) {
					var dd = date.getDate() + '/' + (date.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + date.getFullYear();
					this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.setValue(dd);
					this._updateValue(this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.value);
					this.dateInputWidgetCalendar.set('style', 'display:none!important');
				},

				_onTextAreaPress: function() {
					this._set('value', this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.value);
					this._updateValue(this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.value);
					this.dateInputWidgetCalendar.set('style', 'display:block!important');
				},

				_onChange: function() {
					this._set('value', this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.value);
					this._updateValue(this.dateInputWidgetTextbox.value);
				},

				onChange: function(value) {

				},

				// updates the value and tells epi to save
				_updateValue: function(value) {
					if (epi.areEqual(this.value, value)) {
						return;
					}

					this._set('value', value);
					this.onChange(value);
				}
			});
	});

module.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<module>
	<dojo>
		<paths>
			<add name="Epik" path="Scripts" />
		</paths>
	</dojo>
	<clientResources>
		<add name="epi-cms.widgets.base" path="Scripts/Editors/DateTextBoxUtc/Template.html" />
		<add name="epi-cms.widgets.base" path="Scripts/Editors/DateTextBoxUtc/DateTextBoxUtc.js" resourceType="Script" />
	</clientResources>
	<clientModule>
		<moduleDependencies>
			<add dependency="Shell" type="RunAfter" />
			<add dependency="CMS" type="RunAfter" />
		</moduleDependencies>
	</clientModule>
</module>

I'm referencing the Template.html in the js file by using "'dojo/text!./Template.html" as it is in the same folder. Is this not the correct way to be referencing the template file?

Hi,

It seems module.config is problem

You can change as following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<module  clientResourceRelativePath="~/ClientResources">
	<dojo>
		<paths>
			<add name="Epik" path="Scripts" />
		</paths>
	</dojo>
	<clientResources>
		<add name="epi-cms.widgets.base" path="Scripts/Editors/DateTextBoxUtc/Template.html" />
		<add name="epi-cms.widgets.base" path="Scripts/Editors/DateTextBoxUtc/DateTextBoxUtc.js" resourceType="Script" />
	</clientResources>
	<clientModule>
		<moduleDependencies>
			<add dependency="Shell" type="RunAfter" />
			<add dependency="CMS" type="RunAfter" />
		</moduleDependencies>
	</clientModule>
</module>

OR

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<module>
	<dojo>
		<paths>
			<add name="Epik" path="ClientResources/Scripts" />
		</paths>
	</dojo>
	<clientResources>
		<add name="epi-cms.widgets.base" path="ClientResources/Scripts/Editors/DateTextBoxUtc/Template.html" />
		<add name="epi-cms.widgets.base" path="ClientResources/Scripts/Editors/DateTextBoxUtc/DateTextBoxUtc.js" resourceType="Script" />
	</clientResources>
	<clientModule>
		<moduleDependencies>
			<add dependency="Shell" type="RunAfter" />
			<add dependency="CMS" type="RunAfter" />
		</moduleDependencies>
	</clientModule>
</module>

I've tried both of these module.config changes and it still has the same issue.

Do i need to specify a resourceType for the template?

It is weird. I mistypo in sencond one and updated it. But I think you do not need to add any thing to <clientResources> section if you use this js file in Editor Descriptor and set client class to this js file already.

Just need to add something as you did if you want to always load your resources whenever loading epi base resources.

The resource should be script or style, the template file is loaded when js file is loaded.

So the template.html shouldn't be listed in <ClientResources> section? I've removed this but still seeing the same errors. I saw the typo, still not working.

Yes, the template.html should not be listed in ClientResources section. It is so weird. Do you stop debugging and re-run again after changing module.config file?
