Read Custom property in velocity

[Ed Sattar]

I have put a custom property in jira-config.properties

let us say that

property=value

How to read this value in email velocity template?

[RambanamP]

you can get following way

$i18n.getText("propertylabel")

before that need to define resource tag in atlassian-plugin.xml as follows

<resource type="i18n" name="i18n" location="property file path"/>
