Assets: Integrating with Liferay's Framework

Liferay DXP’s asset framework transforms entities into a common format that can be published anywhere in your site. Web content articles, blog posts, wiki articles, and documents are some asset-enabled entities that come out-of-the-box. By asset-enabling your own applications, you can take advantage of Liferay DXP’s functionality for publishing your application’s data across your site in the form of asset publisher entries, notifications, social activities, and more.

Liferay DXP’s asset framework includes the following features:

  • Tags and categories
  • Comments and ratings
  • Related assets (a.k.a. asset links)
  • Faceted search
  • Integration with Liferay DXP’s Asset Publisher portlet
  • Integration with Liferay DXP’s Search portlet
  • Integration with Liferay DXP’s Tags Navigation, Tag Cloud, and Categories Navigation portlets

In this section, you’ll asset-enable the guestbook and guestbook entry entities. You’ll implement tags, categories, and related assets for guestbooks and guestbook entries. You’ll implement comments and ratings in guestbook entries. You’ll also learn how asset-enabled guestbooks and guestbook entries integrate with Liferay DXP core portlets like the Asset Publisher, Tags Navigation, Tag Cloud, and Categories Navigation portlets.
