Implementing a Custom Icon

To change the Catalog Media browse node icon, do the following:

<!-- The media node -->
 <browse-item id="media"
              label-resource="node.media.label"
              is-root="true"
              icon="images/stat_error_16.png">
   <list-definition id="mediaRootFolders"
                    retriever="query"
                    child-type="/atg/commerce/catalog/MerchandisingProductCatalog:folder">
     <retriever-parameter name="query"
                          value="parentFolder IS NULL" />
     <retriever-parameter name="refresh-property"
                          value="parentFolder" />
   </list-definition>
 </browse-item> <!-- end media -->

To implement custom icons for the Catalog Asset type, do the following:

  1. Find the icon attributes from customCatalog.xml for item-descriptor with name="catalog".

    The attributes are flexIconResource and largeFlexIconResource. Their corresponding values are catalogIconSwf and catalogLargeIconSwf. Find these keys in the resourceBundle file present for the same item descriptor (locale specific, for example, CustomCatalogTemplateResources_en.properties).

  2. Use the following path for the Tomcat server: ATG-DIR\DCS\buildtree\atg\commerce

  3. Change this file in the exe installation and restart the server.

    The following is sample code for overriding the catalog icon:

catalogIconSwf=images/gray_x_icon.png
catalogLargeIconSwf=images/gray_x_icon.png

The following is sample code when using Font Awesome icons instead of an image:

catalogIconSwf=fa fa-calculator
catalogLargeIconSwf=fa fa-calculator

The following are customization examples:

MerchConfig.003, for example, to specify a localized display string for the previous sku-color example the following steps are necessary:

  1. For the module containing the repository extension, ensure that the manifest file META-INF/MANIFEST.MF includes an "ATG-Class-Path" entry that appends the module’s own classes and resources to the server class path.

  2. Create a file named Resources.properties, with the following content: categoryPresentation=Presentation sku.color=Color

  3. Place the file into a directory named my/module, in the module’s class path.

  4. Modify the SKU item descriptor as follows:

<item-descriptor name="sku"> <table name="my_sku_extensions" type="auxiliary" id-column-name="sku_id"> <property name="color" data-type="string" column-name="color" category-resource="categoryPresentation" display-name-resource="sku.color"> <attribute name="resourceBundle" value="my.module.Resources"/> </property> </table> </item-descriptor>
