Moving web resources from idp-war to idp-conf ?

[Tom Zeller]

Do we want to serve static resources like images and stylesheets from
idp-conf rather than idp-war ?

If we run an expanded WAR I guess it doesn't really matter, deployers
can just as easily copy files into idp.home/war or idp.home/webapp
just as easily as idp-conf/resources, but I thought we didn't really
want deployers changing the WAR, expanded or not.

It looks like as part of IDP-474 the <mvc:resources mapping />
elements in mvc-beans.xml were commented out. If we want to bring them
back, for example

 <mvc:resources mapping="/resources/**" location="%{idp.home}/resources/" />

then the paths to those resources in the velocity views and JSPs would be

 $request.getContextPath()$request.getServletPath()/resources/images

instead of

 $request.getContextPath()/images

as they are now.

I ask as part of setting up customization of the consent flows.

Thoughts ? Thanks.
