how do I get a value from another configuration #2244

qbuser · 1 decade ago

I have two configurations 'A' and 'B' at the same level. I want to set root.A variable softwareDeployRoot to the value of root.B's variable deployRoot.

root.A variable 'nameOfSoftwareConfig' is set to 'B'

this is what I entered for the value of variable softwareDeployRoot in root.A:

${system.getConfiguration("root/" + vars.getValue("nameOfSoftwareConfig") ).getVar('deployRoot')}

but the value is not being set.

The value of deployRoot in root.B is set using XMLSlurper to obtain the value from a control file in Archiva.

Is it possible to do what I'm trying to do?

Value of variable will not be interpretated if access from configuration directly. Try below instead to access variable from a fake build:

${groovy:
import com.pmease.quickbuild.model.Build
def fakeBuild = new Build()
fakeBuild.setConfiguration(system.getConfiguration("root/" + vars.getValue("nameOfSoftwareConfig")))
return fakeBuild.getVarValue('deployRoot')
}

Thanks for the quick response. I wasn't able to get the fake build to work, but I later realized that the value I want will always be available in the last successful build of the other project's activate config. So my problem has been resolved with the following code:

${groovy:
return system.getConfiguration("root/" + vars.getValue("dbSoftwareConfigName") + "/install/activate/DSDC_dev").getLatestSuccessfulBuild().getVarValue('deployRoot')
}

Thanks much!
