Customizing the Login Page

Under Construction

Overview

The login page can be customized for Web, Tablet, Phone and Electron Apps.

For Desktop Apps, see Command Line Switches.

Web Apps

The default login.rsp and login_recaptcha.rsp (run when reCAPTCHA is enabled) files for Web Apps reside in:

Windows

C:\lianja\cloudserver\tenants\public\wwwroot\

Linux

/opt/lianja/cloudserver/tenants/public/wwwroot/

macOS

/usr/local/lianja/cloudserver/tenants/public/wwwroot/

The default file is specified in the HTTP Settings in the Server Manager on Windows or in the environment variable DB_WWWDEFAULT on Linux and macOS.

You can customize your own by copying the default files and editing them to brand them.

PhoneGap Apps

The default login_phone.html, login_phone_recaptcha.html, login_tablet.html and login_tablet_recaptcha.html files used for PhoneGap Apps reside in:

Windows

C:\lianja\library\mobilelogin\

Linux

/opt/lianja/library/mobilelogin/

macOS

/usr/local/lianja/library/mobilelogin/

When generating code for the mobile App, if these files exist in the app directory they will be used instead. You can customize your own by copying the default files and editing them to brand them.

Electron Apps

The default login_web.html and login_web_recaptcha.html files used by Electron reside in:

Windows

C:\lianja\library\mobilelogin\

Linux

/opt/lianja/library/mobilelogin/

macOS

/usr/local/lianja/library/mobilelogin/

When generating code for the Electron App, if these files exist in the app directory they will be used instead. You can customize your own by copying the default files and editing them to brand them.

reCAPTCHA

Google reCAPTCHA was added to Web and Mobile login pages in Lianja v4.1.

The reCAPTCHA can be enabled or disabled in the HTTP Settings in the Server Manager on Windows or by setting the environment variable DB_WWWRECAPTCHA on Linux and macOS.

Authenticating and Running a Specific Web App

There are occasions that you want to login and run an App directly without having to go through the App Center. From Lianja v4.1 you can do this.

For example, put this in the browser address bar (or an href in a link).

http://localhost:8001/login.rsp?app=example_webapp1

or login, run an App and go to a specific page.

http://localhost:8001/login.rsp?app=example_webapp1&page=sales

This enhancement provides the ability to use the reCAPTCHA login page to authenticate, setup the correct roles and permissions and then navigate to the specified app.

You can also authenticate and run a .rsp page. For example, where myreport.rsp resides in the library directory:

http://localhost:8001/login.rsp?file=myreport.rsp

You can pass arguments like this:

http://localhost:8001/login.rsp?file=myreport.rsp&args=arglist.....
