Invocation

The IPlugin interface

When you are in a JSP that belongs to a Plugin, an object set in the request attributes implementing the com.noheto.plugins.IPlugin interface is available with the key plugin.

With this object, you can retrieve plugin informations such as name, version…​

There are many methods, we’ll highlight the most useful :

• ${plugin.parameters[parameter_name].value} : Getting a parameter value

• getPagePath will return path part containing page directory name and trailing '/'

• getResourcePath : will return path part containing res directory and trailing '/'. Images, javascript resources, CSS and other static resources can be embedded in a plugin in the res directory.

• invoke : this method is used to invoke static methods from objects.
