Deploying application images

To enable access to your images, add them to one of the default image directories.

By default, the GAS looks for images in $FGLASDIR/pic and in the application directory (defined by the PATH element). To quickly enable access to your images, add them to one of these directories.

The default image directory is set by the WEB_APPLICATION_PICTURE_COMPONENT element. For example, if you are deploying an application using GWC for HTML5, this WEB_APPLICATION_PICTURE_COMPONENT defines the default image directory:

<WEB_APPLICATION_PICTURE_COMPONENT Id="cpn.gwc.html5.picture">
  <PATH Id="Resource" Type="WEBSERVER">$(connector.uri)/fjs</PATH>
  <PATH Id="Image" Type="APPSERVER" 
   ExtensionFilter="$(res.image.extensions);.less;.svg">
    $(res.path.tpl.html5)/img;$(res.path.pic);$(application.path)</PATH>
  <PATH Id="SetHtml5" Type="APPSERVER"
   ExtensionFilter="$(res.web.extensions);.less;.svg"
   DVMFallbackAllowed="FALSE">$(res.path.tpl.html5);$(res.path.tpl.common)</PATH>
  <PATH Id="WebComponents" Type="APPSERVER"
   ExtensionFilter="$(res.web.components.extensions)"
   DVMFallbackAllowed="FALSE">$(res.path.docroot)</PATH>
</WEB_APPLICATION_PICTURE_COMPONENT>

To explicitly override with an image path specific to the application, add a PICTURE element to the application configuration. In this example, a PICTURE path is added for the GWC for HTML5 theme:

<APPLICATION Parent="defaultgwc"
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://www.4js.com/ns/gas/2.50/cfextwa.xsd">
  <RESOURCE Id="application.path"
   Source="INTERNAL">$(res.path.demo.app)/card/src</RESOURCE>
  <EXECUTION>
    <PATH>$(res.path.demo.app)/card/src</PATH>
    <MODULE>card.42r</MODULE>
  </EXECUTION>
  <OUTPUT>
    <MAP Id="DUA_HTML5">
      <PICTURE>
        <PATH Id="Image" Type="APPSERVER">
          $(res.path.demo.app)/card/src/photo;
          $(res.path.pic);$(application.path)</PATH>
      </PICTURE>
    </MAP>
  </OUTPUT>
</APPLICATION>
