Confluence Docs 3.0 : What's the easiest way to render a velocity template from Java code? This page last changed on Aug 18, 2009 by ggaskell. ### Cannot resolve external resource into attachment. What's the easiest way to render a velocity template from Java code? Use VelocityUtils. You will need to provide VelocityUtils with the name of the template you want to render, and a map of parameters that will be made available within the template as `$variables` in velocity. Confluence has a default set of objects for Confluence velocity templates. These are required for most Confluence velocity macros to work properly. To obtain this context, you should call `MacroUtils.defaultVelocityContext();`.
    // Create the Velocity Context
    Map context = MacroUtils.defaultVelocityContext();
    context.put("myCustomVar", customVar);
    context.put("otherCustomVar", otherCustomVar);
    // Render the Template
    String result = VelocityUtils.getRenderedTemplate("/com/myplugin/templates/macro.vm", context);
