How to initialize a xhtml renderer

[Florian]

I try to initialize the com.atlassian.confluence.content.render.xhtml.Renderer but had no luck so far to figure out how...

Could anybody give me some tips or point me to the right direction?

Hi Florian!

You can inject the component named "viewRenderer", it's an instance of this Renderer interface.

Hi Mirko

I tried to inject it via

public void setviewRenderer(Renderer viewRenderer)
	{
	    this.viewRenderer = viewRenderer;
	}

as written here: https://developer.atlassian.com/display/CONFDEV/Accessing+Confluence+Components+from+Plugin+Modules

but its still null when I try to use it.

Can you please try it with "setViewRenderer" (camel case) or simply "setRenderer"? The component is available, we only have to find the correct naming for dependency injection. ;) You can check for plugin available components in the following list:

<confluence-url>/admin/pluginexports.action

Thanks for the pluginexports link!

I noticed it says something about V2 so I changed my code to:

private final Renderer viewRenderer;
    
    public MyClass( Renderer viewRenderer ){
    	this.viewRenderer = viewRenderer;
    }

and it worked!

Thanks! :)
