• setImageProvider

  public void setImageProvider(CollaborationAvatarGroup.ImageProvider imageProvider)

  Sets an image provider callback for dynamically loading avatar images for a given user. The image can be loaded on-demand from a database or using any other source of IO streams.

  If no image callback is defined, then the image URL defined by UserInfo.getImage() is directly passed to the browser. This means that avatar images need to be available as static files or served dynamically from a custom servlet. This is the default.

  Usage example:

   collaborationAvatarGroup.setImageProvider(userInfo -> {
       StreamResource streamResource = new StreamResource(
               "avatar_" + userInfo.getId(), () -> {
                   User userEntity = userRepository
                           .findById(userInfo.getId());
                   byte[] profilePicture = userEntity.getProfilePicture();
                   return new ByteArrayInputStream(profilePicture);
               });
       streamResource.setContentType("image/png");
       return streamResource;
   });
   

  Parameters:
