How to create default labels for a content template in a confluence space blueprint?

[PJ]

Hello,

we have developed some space blueprints. Each blueprint has some children pages. We want to set labels on these pages (automatically when the space and the corresponding pages are created).

Anyone knows how? Or if at all possible? I tried index-key (<space-blueprint key="xx" i18n-name-key="confluence.blueprints.space.xx" category="yy" index-key="testlabel">) but it doesn't seem to have any effect whatsoever.

Thanks for any tips in advance!

Just adding some code to @Robert Reiner [smartics] solution. 

One can really use the event listeners to achieve this: 

@EventListener
public void pageCreatedEvent(PageCreateEvent event) {
    log.debug("Page created event:%s", event.getPage().getTitle());
 
    if (event.getPage().getTitle().equalsIgnoreCase("<put-in-your-page-title>")) {
        labelManager.addLabel((Labelable) event.getPage(), new Label("<put-in-your-label"));
    }
}

The labelManager is injected automatically. Just put a field in your event class like this: 

public class MyAnnotatedEventListener implements InitializingBean, DisposableBean {

	private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyAnnotatedEventListener.class);

	protected EventPublisher eventPublisher;
	protected PageManager pageManager;
	protected ThemeManager themeManager;
	protected LabelManager labelManager;
 
...

And register you event class in atlassian-config.xml:

<component-import key="eventPublisher" interface="com.atlassian.event.api.EventPublisher"/>

<component-import key="themeManager" interface="com.atlassian.confluence.themes.ThemeManager"/>

<component-import key="labelManager" interface="com.atlassian.confluence.labels.LabelManager"/>

<component name="My Annotated Event Listener" key="annotatedEventListener" class="de.my.package.MyAnnotatedEventListener"/>

Great! Thanks Jens!

I created a suggestion ticket for this: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-40591

Thanks Robert! Should I put the method (onPageCreate) in the corresponding ContextProvider class? And how can I pass on the labels in the .soy template? Thank you in advance!

I have written a Listener, but I assume the ContextProvider would work, too. You may add additional input fields to your soy: ... <form> ... <input type="hidden" name="mykey" value="mayvalue" /> ... These should appear in the context (event or context provider): context.get("mykey").

Just in case: Listener @EventListener public void onXyzEvent(final XyzEvent event) { ... }

Thanks a lot! I'll implement it and let you know. :)

I could not manage this with configuration. So I added a listener to listen for events.

Here is some pseudocode (for a space label, but for pages this would be similar):

protected void onPageCreate(final ...Event event) {
    final SpaceBlueprint spaceBlueprint = event.getSpaceBlueprint();
    final String moduleKey = spaceBlueprint.getModuleCompleteKey();
    if (getModuleKey().equals(moduleKey)) { // determine if applicable
      final Space space = event.getSpace();
      final String label = getLabel(); // determine Label to set
      if (!hasLabel(space, label)) {
        labelManager.addLabel(space, label);
      }
    }
  }

Register listener with the atlassian-plugin.xml:

<listener
    key="PageLabelListener"
    class="com.myorg.PageLabelListener" />

no one?!
