Method Detail

getIconPath

String getIconPath(T content,
                   int size)

Get the URL path to the icon for the given piece of content. Paths are relative to the site root, and will already have the context path prepended to them.

All icons are square. If no icon is available at the requested size, the implementation should use the following priority to determine what to return:

1. The smallest icon with width larger than the requested size
2. If no icon is larger than the requested size, return the largest icon available

In general you can only assume a 16x16 icon will be available, but this may change in the future.

Parameters:

content - the content to find an icon for

size - the intended width/height at which the icon will be displayed in pixels

Returns:

the path to the icon that best suits the requested size

getLegacyIconPath

String getLegacyIconPath(String contentType,
                         int size)

Get the URL path to the icon for the given type of content. Paths are relative to the site root, and will already have the context path prepended to them. This method will always return the generic icon for the given content: if you want to inspect the content and return different icons based on its state, use getIconPath(com.atlassian.confluence.core.ConfluenceEntityObject, int)

Icon size selection follows the same rule as its sister method.

Parameters:

contentType - the type of content to find an icon for as would be returned from ContentEntityObject.getType()

size - the intended width/height at which the icon will be displayed in pixels

Returns:

the path to the icon that best suits the requested size

getIconCssClass

String getIconCssClass(T content)

Get the CSS class that can be applied to add an icon to some inline element describing the given content.

Parameters:

content - the content to find an icon for

Returns:

the CSS class to add that icon to the element

getContentCssClass

String getContentCssClass(String contentType,
                          String contentPluginKey)

Get the CSS class that can be applied to add an icon to some inline element describing the given content. The existence of both IconCssClass (used in the velocity macros) and ContentCssClass (used by the ContentTypesDisplayMapper) is redundant and confusing, and should be reconciled somehow.

Parameters:

contentType - the content to find an icon for

contentPluginKey - the plugin key for the content it it is a ContentType plugin

Returns:

the CSS class to add that icon to the element

getIconCssClass

String getIconCssClass(SearchResult result)

Get the CSS class that can be applied to add an icon to some inline element describing the given result.

Parameters:

result - the search result to find an icon for

Returns:

the CSS class to add that icon to the element

getContentTypeI18NKey

String getContentTypeI18NKey(T content)

Get the I18N key for the name of the given content.

Parameters:

content - the content to get the name of

Returns:

the I18N key that can be used to name that content

getContentTypeI18NKey

String getContentTypeI18NKey(SearchResult result)

Get the I18N key for the content that is being referred to by this search result

Parameters:

result - the search result being displayed

Returns:

the I18N key that can be used to name that content
