    • buildClientConfig

      public tools.jackson.databind.node.ObjectNode buildClientConfig(ConfigContext context)
      Description copied from class: AbstractAction
      Produces the JSON configuration this action sends to the client. Default is an empty object; override to add type-specific options.

      Subclasses encode output references by calling ConfigContext.registerOutput(Output) and element references by calling ConfigContext.referenceElement(com.vaadin.flow.dom.Element). Public so the internal framework can read the config without reflection; subclasses just override.

      Overrides:
      buildClientConfig in class AbstractAction
      Parameters:
      context - the resolver for referenced elements and outputs, not null
      Returns:
      a Jackson ObjectNode, never null
