[Girder-users] Installation in virtualbox

[Zach Mullen]

Hi Bastian,

The following section of the docs describes how to extend the web client
application:
file:///Users/zach/dev/girder/docs/_build/html/plugin-development.html#extending-the-client-side-application

To modify the title bar to make it say something other than "Girder", you'd
add the following in your plugin's javascript:


girder.wrap(girder.views.LayoutHeaderView, 'render', function (render) {
    render.call(this);
    this.$('.g-app-title').text('Foo');
});

To modify the front page logo, it's pretty similar:

girder.wrap(girder.views.FrontPageView, 'render', function (render) {
    render.call(this);
    this.$('img.g-frontpage-logo').attr('src', 'http://path/to/image/url');
});


HTH,
