Hi M Garcia!
I have just added this improvement to trunk, so you can be proud your contribution has made its way to Liferay 6.1!
Now Liferay is a bit more "yours" than before
Thanks a lot for your contribution!

Hello,

I managed to do this in an Asset Publisher Display Style hook.

I copied "title_list.jsp" from Asset Publisher display styles.
I modified it so that it uses document type icon.

It's been done in a simple way, because this display style I created is used for asset publisher displaying documents only.

So I think this is a good start, now it's just adding some asset type test (to determine whether it's a document, a web content, etc.) to perform like this only in the case of documents.

Instead of this :

...
			<liferay-ui:icon label="<%= true %>" message="<%= HtmlUtil.escape(title) %>" src="<%= assetRendererFactory.getIconPath(renderRequest) %>" url="<%= viewURL.toString() %>" />
...

Use this :

...
&lt;%
long docPK = assetEntry.getClassPK();
DLFileEntry dlFileEntry = DLFileEntryLocalServiceUtil.getFileEntry(docPK);
String iconPath = themeDisplay.getPathThemeImages()+"/file_system/small/"+dlFileEntry.getIcon()+".png";
%&gt;

<liferay-ui:icon label="<%= true %>" message="<%= HtmlUtil.escape(title) %>" src="<%= iconPath %>" url="<%= viewURL.toString() %>" />
...

There you go ! =)

Thanks!

I've added it to the Community Backlog so that other community members know they can also work on it.

Here's the JIRA ticket : http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-19499.

I'm quite busy lately so I can't give it a try at the moment.
If the issue's still there when I'll have more time then yes, I'll give it a try ;-).

(I potentially have a client which will need it soon, in which case I'll handle this, but it really depends on him ;-) )

Hi M. García,

That's a very good idea. It might require extending the Asset Framework (AssetRenderer in particular), but I think that's perfectly fine. Please go ahead and create a JIRA ticket for it. Next paste the link in this thread.

BTW, do you want to give it a try and implement it?

Hello,

I was thinking about a trivial improvement of the Asset publisher.

The icon for a document in the asset publisher is always the same (the "paperclip").
Once you click on the document entry, it displays the icon corresponding to the document type.

I think it should be the case from the beginning, thus permitting the user to see what doc type it is from the list.

Should I make a JIRA ticket ? =)
