Thymeleaf: Refresh value with Ajax
You can use the feature to only render a fragment of the Thymeleaf view.
First give the snippet of markup you want to update an id:
<span id="eventCount" th:text="${numDeviceEventsWithAlarm}"></span>Then we can create a Spring request mapping in controller:
@RequestMapping(value="/event-count", method=RequestMethod.GET)public String getEventCount(ModelMap map) { // TODO: retrieve the new value here so you can add it to model map map.addAttribute("numDeviceEventsWithAlarm", count); // change "myview" to the name of your view return "myview :: #eventCount";}See Specifying fragments in controller return values in Thymeleaf manual to better understand the return that specifies which fragment to render.
Make a JavaScript function to update the value with ajax (jQuery style):
function updateEventCount() { $.get("event-count").done(function(fragment) { // get from controller $("#eventCount").replaceWith(fragment); // update snippet of page });}Then just call this function when you need to update the value.
