Dependencie between plugin A and plugin B with OSGi and Spring on Confluence

[Richard Bézin]

Hi,

I want to create 2 plugins on Confluence: the first is like a "core" and the second, "macro" uses this core.
I created 2 plugins with atlas-create-confluence-plugin command.
Following the snippset, I only kept api/MyPluginComponent interface:

public interface MyPluginComponent
{
 String getName();
}

and impl/MyPluginComponentImpl class file in the "core" plugin:

@Component
public class MyPluginComponentImpl implements MyPluginComponent
{

    public String getName()
    {
        return "myComponent";
    }
}

In the "macro" part, I create a Macro wich use MyPluginComponent:

public class PluginMacro implements Macro {

    private final MyPluginComponent myPluginComponent;
    private final XhtmlContent xhtmlContent;

    @Autowired
    public PluginMacro(@ComponentImport MyPluginComponent myPluginComponent, @ComponentImport XhtmlContent xhtmlContent) {
        this.myPluginComponent = myPluginComponent;
        this.xhtmlContent = xhtmlContent;
    }

    @Override
    public String execute(Map<String, String> map, String s, ConversionContext conversionContext) {
        try {
            return xhtmlContent.convertStorageToView(myPluginComponent.getName(), conversionContext);
        } catch (XMLStreamException | XhtmlException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return "Error";
    }

    @Override
    public BodyType getBodyType() {
        return BodyType.NONE;
    }

    @Override
    public OutputType getOutputType() {
        return OutputType.BLOCK;
    }

}

The core part compiles, but of course the "macro" part needs the "core" dependencies. I try to add the jar with Maven, but when I upload "core" and "macro" on my Confluence, I take this error :
 

ERROR [Spring DM Context Creation Timer] [internal.dependencies.startup.DependencyWaiterApplicationContextExecutor] fail Unable to create application context for [com.km.plugin_macro], unsatisfied dependencies: Dependency on [(&(objectClass=com.km.core.api.MyPluginComponent)(objectClass=com.km.core.api.MyPluginComponent))]

In /plugins/servlet/upm/osgi, I can see "macro" imports com.km.core.api..

I don't know if I use the right annotations, or maybe I need to update pom.xml files ?

Thanks for the help,

Richard

Hi Richard,

You need to include a dependency for core plugin in the pom.xml of the macro plugin and create an obr of the macro plugin. Please refer to the below links

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
