Component icon not used

Question

For my custom component, I want to show the icon. I placed the icons in the /resources/assets/icons folder, but I am not seeing them. Let me know if I misplaced the icons or I need to configure the folders. Thanks.

Answer

Files located in /assets/icons are not accessible. You should add your path in a Jahia-Static-Resources instruction in your pom.xml to allow assets to be readable; by default only /css, /javascript and /img are accessible.
