Delete profile picture in confluence 5.8

[Lukas Knoch -Rumpelcoders-]

Hi,

is it possible to delete your own/some one else 's (as admin) profile picture in confluence 5.8?

If it's not possible via the ui, can it be done from java api?

Best regards, Lukas

Java class

public class RemoveProfilePicture extends HttpServlet {
    private String user;
    private UserAccessor userAccessor;
    @Override
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException {
        //only make it usable by administrators
        if (userAccessor.hasMembership(userAccessor.getGroup("confluence-administrators"), AuthenticatedUserThreadLocal.get())) {
            user = request.getParameter("user");
            ConfluenceUser confUser = userAccessor.getUserByName(user);
            if (confUser != null) {
                userAccessor.getPropertySet(confUser).remove(UserPreferencesKeys.PROPERTY_USER_PROFILE_PICTURE);
                response.getWriter().append("Profile pic removed for user: " + user);
            } else
                response.getWriter().append("No such user: " + user);
        } else
            response.getWriter().append("No permission");
    }
    public void setUserAccessor(UserAccessor userAccessor) {
        this.userAccessor = userAccessor;
    }
    public void setUser(String user) {
        this.user = user;
    }
}

Add this to atlassian-plugin.xml

<servlet key="remove-pic-servlet" class="com.tieto.plugins.utilities.RemoveProfilePicture"
        name="Remove profile pic servlet">
        <url-pattern>/custom/removeProfilePicture</url-pattern>
    </servlet>

Of course, replace class with your class name. You can also change url pattern if you wish.

Access it with this url: /plugins/servlet/custom/removeProfilePicture?user=username , where username is actual username.

Thanks a lot, just what i was looking for. :)

Yes i am. Could you send me some sample code? That would be great.

You can write a servlet plugin which would do that. Are you familiar with writing plugins in confluence?
