Create components dynamically and add to page

Hi tapestry users,

I’m developing a configurable dashboard page where a user can select different widgets to his own dashboard. I’m thinking on save on database the widgets with his configuration per user. I would like to do something like this:

<t:loop source="widgets" value="widget">
	<t:delegate to=“createWidget”/>				
</t:loop>  

And in my page class something like:

public Block getCreateWidget(){

	return componentSource.getComponent(widget.getComponentClassName()); <!-— This method “getComponent” by name/class doesn´t exists, only for logical page names —>
}

Where widget.getComponentClassName() returns, for example, "components/Widget1” or “my.package.components.Widget1".

Do you know if it’s possible this approach on Tapestry5?? With pages it works fine (I do it multiple times for email rendering), but with components I don’t found a method o service…

For other hand, I found a core component “Dynamic”. Is there any example of use?

Thank you everyone

Best regards
