Transclude content from a resource from a remote system.
Transcludes a snippet from a project on a server.
Including unknown text snippets inside a web page is dangerous!
Please be very careful when transcluding information from external servers!
Usually you should only transclude pages or parts of pages, if you also are in control of the contents. Transcluding arbitrary information my result in executing scripts on your server. A malicious attacker may steal other user's authentication cookie or do other harmful things!
Identifies the connection information via Confluence shortcuts or space properties.
The system identifier is checked at three locations
Typically do not change the system identifier provided by the macro (if one is specified). Keep the default value of '${system-id}' as long as you do not need to reference multiple server of the same type in one space. Then set the space property to reference the specific server accordingly. This makes it easier to create new links to artifacts since the system identifier need not to be changed.
The search for the system connection information is conducted as follows. Use the URI discovered first to connect to the server.
- Check for a space property
url-${system-id} - Check for a space property
${system-id}
Only available with projectdoc Toolbox version 1.11 and up! - Check for a space property
shortcut-id-${system-id}.
Lookup the connection information from the shortcut links with the value retrieved from the space property. - Check the shortcut links for a value
${system-id}. - Check application navigator for a value
${system-id}.
If no value is specified at any of the locations above, the macro renders an error message like this:
In this example for a system macro the referenced, but undefined system, is called test-repo.
The system identifier is added as CSS class to the link element.
Identifies the type of system referenced.
If no system identifier is specified, the system type is used as default. If no predefined system type is applicable, use generic.
The system type is added as CSS class to the link element.
Since version 1.0.
The file on the server to transclude from.
If the resource cannot be found on the remote server, a warning box is rendered.
Snippet ID
The identifier of the snippet to include.
With the line after the line containing the identifier the snippet starts. The line marking the end of the snippet again includes this identifier (and this line is also not part of the snippet).
Example with Snippet ID
The example can be fetched with the ID 'important'.

If checked, the Snippet ID is considered to be a query selector.
The selector is required to specify an HTML element. Introduce the selector with '#' to specify the unique identifier of an HTML element.
Use jsoup's Selector Syntax to specify queries. The first element in the result set is transcluded content.
One-time Transclusion?
If you do not want to specify a system, e.g. you are only transcluding from a system on one occasion, have a look at the HTML Snippet Macro.
Available since version 1.1.
Lines
The line or line ranges to match. There may be multiple line ranges, separated by comma.
Here are some examples:
| Specified |
| Description |
|---|
-12 |
| Transclude all lines up to and including line 12. |
23 |
| Transclude line 23 only. |
42-50 |
| Transclude lines 42 to 50, both edge values included. |
90- |
| Transclude from line 90 to the end of the file. |
-12, 23, 42-50, 90- |
| All of the above in combination. |
Please note that this information is not used, if a snippet ID is provided.
Encoding
The encoding of the file. Defaults to the character type announced by the response.
Plain
If unchecked, the snippet is rendered within the Code Block Macro (only then do the following code attributes apply). Otherwise it is rendered as plain text fragment.
Code Language
If the snippet is rendered not in plain text, this value is passed to the Code Block Macro.
The value "Default Language" refers to the value provided by the space property "Code Language".
Code Title
If the snippet is rendered not in plain text, this value is passed to the Code Block Macro.
Code Theme
If the snippet is rendered not in plain text, this value is passed to the Code Block Macro.
Code Line Numbers
If the snippet is rendered not in plain text, this value is passed to the Code Block Macro.
Code First Line
If the snippet is rendered not in plain text, this value is passed to the Code Block Macro.
Code Collapse
If the snippet is rendered not in plain text, this value is passed to the Code Block Macro.
Transcluded Content
The whitespace formatting of the transcluded content is currently not preserved (see
PDEXINFOSY-20
-
JSoup does not preserve Linebreaks

).
This applies only for HTML content that is selected with an identifier.
