Geb Module Inside Frames

[Balaji KM]

Hi Guys,

Currently I am in the process of migrating from 0.9.3 to 0.13.1.

My web application got 2 frames.  I defined Modules for both the frames. 

Module Class

class AbcModule extends Module {

    static content = {
        bodyFrame { $("frame",name:'body')}
        pageTitle {
            withFrame(bodyFrame) {
                $(".pagetitle").text()
            }
        }

}

Page Class 

class BasePage extends Page {
    static at = { abc.pageTitle == "XYZ" }
     static content = {
        abc { module AbcModule}
    }
}

This code works fine in 0.9.3.  

In 0.13.1, this code no longer working.  

From 0.13.1 onwards, It works only If I specify withFrame(abc.bodyFrame) inside my Page class. I tried setting base for my module with frame name,

which didn't work.

I would like to call module elements in Page class, without calling withFrame everytime. Is this possible?

Any pointers will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Bala

Hi Bala,

Can you please explain in detail what "no longer working" means in this case? What is the error your seeing? Are you seeing an exception with a stacktrace? I would expect the code you posted to work just fine.

Hi Marcin,

Thanks for responding. To reproduce this issue, I created a small geb project. 

https://gitlab.com/balajilinks/GebModuleError

I used the following website to reproduce this error.

http://www.quackit.com/html/templates/frames/frames_example_3.html

In the above project, At checking works fine with 0.9.3 version but it fails with 0.13.1.     

I got element not found exception.

Regards,

Bala

Hi Bala,

This is not working anymore because modules now resolve their bases eagerly. To make this work again you will need to ensure that your module base resolves into an element within the frame by wrapping its definition in a withFrame block:

class BasePage extends Page {

    static at = { abc.pageTitle == "XYZ" }

     static content = {

        abc {

            withFrame('body') { 

                module AbcModule

            }

        }

    }

}

Note that I'm using a different signature of withFrame(), one that takes a frame name or id - this is to avoid a problem of element that backs the $() method being scoped inside the wrong frame. You will also have to do that inside of your module class:

class AbcModule extends Module {

    static content = {

        pageTitle {

            withFrame('body') {

                $(".pagetitle").text()

            }

        }

}

Hope this helps,

Marcin
