Atlassian Gadgets Javascript Framework problems in JIRA 7

Question

We are currently migrating a gadget from JIRA 6 to JIRA 7

When loading the plugin and displaying the list of Gadgets in a Dashboard the following error appears in the log:

[Fatal Error] :70:434: Attribute name "data-initially-rendered" associated with an element type "script" must be followed by the ' = ' character.
2017-03-21 18:52:49,535 http-nio-8089-exec-6 WARN admin 1132x286x2 1y3656u 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 /rest/config/1.0/directoryitems/external.json [c.a.g.d.internal.impl.DirectoryImpl] Could not retrieve directory entries from application-provided gadget specs: plugin gadget 'Key{pluginKey='com.eis.jira.plugins.gadget.gadgetUtilitiesForJIRA.gadgetUtilitiesForJIRA', location='numberCustomfieldReport.xml'}' failed validation

We have checked that by removing the following code lines from the gadget.xml definition file that error no longer appears but we need to be able to use AJS. $

....
<Content type="html" view="profile">
 <![CDATA[

#requireResource("com.atlassian.gadgets.publisher:ajs-gadgets")
 #requireResource("com.atlassian.auiplugin:ajs")
 #requireResource("com.atlassian.jira.gadgets:autocomplete")
 #requireResource("jira.webresources:global-static")

#includeResources()

......

Does anyone know how we can import the Atlassian Gadgets Javascript Framework?

Thank you @Volodymyr Krupach for your response.

But in the link it says "If you are replacing a gadget with a dashboard item for your add-on, do not modify the existing OpenSocial gadget code . This provides you with a fallback, in case something goes wrong with your dashboard item — you can simply turn off the add-on module for the dashboard item and the old OpenSocial gadget will render instead."

And I know plugins for JIRA 7.1.x and higher with gadget modules and it works. But I don't know how.

Best Regards

The old "gadget" tag and associated with it approach is not supported since JIRA 7.1.x. Please see https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-platform/guides/dashboards/guide-building-a-dashboard-item-for-a-jira-p2-add-on how to convert or develop a new gadget.
