PARENT_DIRECTORY_PROPERTY_KEY

public static final String PARENT_DIRECTORY_PROPERTY_KEY

Setting this system property will place all the plugin system's directories in a particular parent directory in confluence-home. This is used by the continuous deployment system (internal to Atlassian) to ensure that bringing up a new Confluence instance does not conflict with the plugin working directories of the previous instance. It is not meant for use in general production.

Method Detail

instantiatePluginModule

public static <T> T instantiatePluginModule(com.atlassian.plugin.Plugin plugin,
                                            Class<T> cls)

Instantiates a plugin module. First tries to let the plugin autowire the class, if ContainerManagedPlugin is implemented, otherwise falls back to creation and autowiring by the internal Spring container.

Parameters:

plugin - The plugin that contains the module

cls - The class to instantiate and autowire

Returns:

The created and autowired object

getPluginsBaseDirectory

public static File getPluginsBaseDirectory(String homeLocation)

createDirectoryIfDoesntExist

public static File createDirectoryIfDoesntExist(File directory)

Create a directory if there is no directory, otherwise do nothing. Consider using commons.io.FileUtils.forceMkdir() instead as it has more explicit error handling.

Parameters:

directory - the directory to create.

Returns:

the file object that was passed in.

Throws:

com.atlassian.core.exception.InfrastructureException - if a directory could not be created at that location
