Can't add Macro Icon

Confluence Development Confluence Server

Hey there.

I am currently working on a Macro-Plugin for Confluence and I am, once again, stuck.
I can’t seem to make an Icon appear in the macro browser. I thought it should be pretty easy… but no… all I get is a white field with “icon” written in the top left corner.

here is what I have right now:

	<web-resource key="copymacro-resources" name="copymacro Web Resources">
		<dependency>com.atlassian.auiplugin:ajs</dependency>

		<resource type="download" name="copymacro.css" location="/css/copymacro.css" />
		<resource type="download" name="copymacro.js" location="/js/copymacro.js" />
		<resource type="download" key="images" name="images/" location="images">
			<param name="content-type" value="image/png"/>
		</resource>

		<context>macro-browser</context>
	</web-resource>
       <xhtml-macro name="copymacromodule" class="de.demicon.MacroParam"
		key="copymacro-key" icon="/images/pluginIcon.png">

I have tried so many different approaches that I can’t even remember.Any help would be greatly appreciatet.

Thanks in advance

This is much harder than it ought to be, but once you’ve done it correctly for the first time, you just copy & paste.

I have my icon at:

/src/main/resources/images/gist-icon.png

Importantly, I have a resource which points to the images directory

<resource key="images" name="images/" type="download" location="images"/>

Then I can access the icon at:

/download/resources/${project.groupId}.${project.artifactId}/images/gist-icon.png

Here’s part of an example atlassian-plugin.xml:

<atlassian-plugin key="${project.groupId}.${project.artifactId}" name="${project.name}" plugins-version="2">
    <plugin-info>
        <description>${project.description}</description>
        <version>${project.version}</version>
        <vendor name="${project.organization.name}" url="${project.organization.url}" />
        <param name="plugin-icon">images/gist-icon.png</param>
        <param name="plugin-logo">images/pluginLogo.png</param>
        <param name="atlassian-data-center-compatible">true</param>
    </plugin-info>

    <resource key="images" name="images/" type="download" location="images"/>

    <xhtml-macro name="xhtml-gist-macro"
                 key="xhtml-gist-macro"
                 i18n-name-key="me.davidsimpson.confluence.addon.gister.xhtml-gist-macro.name"
                 class="me.davidsimpson.confluence.addon.gister.macro.GistMacro"
                 icon="/download/resources/${project.groupId}.${project.artifactId}/images/gist-icon.png">
        <description key="me.davidsimpson.confluence.addon.gister.xhtml-gist-macro.desc"/>
        <category name="external-content"/>
        <parameters>
            <parameter name="url" type="string" required="true"></parameter>
        </parameters>
    </xhtml-macro>
   ...

Others likely do it in different ways. This worked for me, so I’ve moved on :wink:

Thank you david, for the quick and correct reply. This worked for me. :snail:

For reference: what I did wrong was to put the resource download into a web-resource module. Might have worked if referenced differently/correctly.
