Liferay in Action is a comprehensive and authoritative guide
to building portals on the Liferay 6 platform. Fully supported and
authorized by Liferay, this book guides you smoothly from your first
exposure to Liferay through the crucial day-to-day tasks of building and
maintaining an enterprise portal that works well within your existing
IT infrastructure.
About the Technology
A portal is a website built around a collection of components
that request, display, and share information. Liferay Portal 6, an
enterprise-ready development platform, makes it a snap to build portals
that integrate with your existing backend systems and provide a rich
interactive user experience. Because Liferay uses standard Java and
JavaScript, along with built-in SOAP and JSON support for web services,
developers can be productive immediately. And since it’s available in
both a free, open source version as well as a fully-supported commercial
edition, it’s an affordable solution for almost any business or
organization
About the Book
Liferay in Action is the official guide to building
Liferay portal applications using Java and JavaScript. If you’ve never
used Liferay before, don’t worry. This book starts with the basics:
setting up your development environment and creating a working portal.
Then, it builds on that foundation to help you discover social features,
tagging, ratings, and more. You’ll also explore the Portlet 2.0 API,
and learn to create custom themes and reusable templates.
Experienced developers will learn how to use new Liferay APIs to
build social and collaborative sites, use the message bus and workflow,
implement indexing and search, and more. This book was developed in
close collaboration with Liferay engineers, so it answers the right
questions, and answers them in depth.
No experience with Liferay or the Portlets API is required, but basic knowledge of Java and web technology is assumed.
