How to bind an object to URL in Jenkins plugin - java

I am developing a Jenkins plugin, I have an object that I want to bind it under root url.
But I have no idea how to bind.
Suppose my object is MyData which have getData method, I want to bind it to [http://localhost/MyData/data], so that I can get JSON data from this url for my ajax call.
I know the binding mechanism of hudson is Stapler, I try to annotate ExportedBean on my class, and implements it a ModelObject, but it is still failed.
Any one know how to do this?
I have read below document, hope it can help.

http://stapler.java.net/apidocs/

You want to create a RootAction.

It could implement Action interface on the Object,
then try to add it to the actions of root Hudson,
like this,
static {
Hudson.getInstance().getActions().add(new MyData());
}
the binding url is depended on how you implement getUrlName() method.

spring cloud contract dsl specify path parameter

I am trying to create a contract for a GET request and I'd like to use a path parameter, that can be reused in the response as well. Is this at all possible? I can only find examples for POST, query parameters and body's.
So if I want to define a contract that requests an entity i.e. /books/12345-6688, I want to reuse the specified ID in the response.
How do I create a contract for something like this?
Possible since Spring Cloud Contract 1.2.0-RC1 (fixed in this issue).
response {
status 200
body(
path: fromRequest().path(),
pathIndex: fromRequest().path(1) // <-- here
)
}
See the docs.
Nope that's not possible due to https://github.com/tomakehurst/wiremock/issues/383 . Theoretically you could create your own transformer + override the way stubs are generated in Spring Cloud Contract. That way the WireMock stubs would contain a reference to your new transformer (like presented in the WireMock docs - http://wiremock.org/docs/extending-wiremock/). But it sounds like a lot of work for sth that seems not really that necessary. Why do you need to do it like this? On the consumer side you want to test the integration, right? So just hardcode some values in the contract instead of referencing them and just check if you can parse those values.
UPDATE:
If you just need to parametrize the request URL but don't want to reference it in the response you can use regular expressions like here - https://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-contract/single/spring-cloud-contract.html#_regular_expressions
UPDATE2:
Like #laffuste has mentioned, starting from RC1 you can reference a concrete path element

Best factory pattern for delivering app data object based on application type in http header

I have a business with multiple applications using my webservice resource. I have a web service resource that looks in a http header for the application ID. This tell the server which application is requesting data. My goal is to deliver to my web application developers a method they can call to retrieve all the application specific settings via the application ID.
Given an applicationID i can specify device type, properties file for that app, and whether GCM,APNS or Microsoft Push Notification, etc. So each applicationID has distinct properties basically.
I want the developer to be able to call for this object like this (or similar):
ApplicationData appData = ApplicationDataFactory.getCurrentApplicationData();
and the factory would look something like this:
class ApplicationDataFactory
{
public static ApplicationData getCurrentApplicationData()
{
//notice how im not passing in criteria here, im getting it from the request so call doens't have to know
String criteria = Request.getHTTPHeaderInfo("applicationID");
if ( criteria.equals("Android") )
return new Android();
else if ( criteria.equals("Android-germany") )
return new Android_germany();
else if ( criteria.equals("ios_germany") )
return new ios_germany();
else if ( criteria.equals("ios"))
return new ios();
else if ( criteria.equals("windows") )
return new windows();
return null;//or throw exception
}
}
so Android, ios, and windows objects all extend off ApplicationData class clearly.
So for example the Android.java object would look like this:
class Android extends ApplicationData{
#override
public String getType(){
return "Android"
}
#override
public Properties getProperties{
return system.getProperties("android.properties");
}
}
and the Android-germany and ios-germany will have common data since there both from germany.
First, i dont like that im specifying the criteria inside the factory and also can anyone help me
with a good design pattern i can use to achieve this ? Remember, in the end i want to be able to have the developer call only ApplicationDataFactory.getCurrentApplicationData(); (or something similar) and the correct application info will be sent referenced. I dont have to use a factory here either its just the first thing i thought of.
So your problem is with the fact that the logic for the criteria is within the factory method. Meanwhile, you don't want the user to provide the criteria as an parameter to the factor method.
First of all, I don't like the idea of having a static Request class. A request should be an object that contains information about the current request. I have a suspicion that your code may be prone to race conditions, once you have many concurrent requests (how do you know which request is which?). So as a starting point, I would refactor the Request class so that you work with instances of Request.
I think, the clearest approach would be that you pass in applicationID as a parameter. This makes testability trivial and the code becomes very obvious, too. You take an input and produce the output based on the input. You could pass the Request instead of the applicationID and let the factory handle the retrieval of the applicationID from the request (as you are doing now).
If you think the Request -> applicationID logic should not be part of the factory, you can create another class, such as ApplicationIDResolver which translates a Request to an applicationID. From then on ApplicationDataFactory would be used through an instance and the ApplicationIDResolver would be a constructor parameter. (I think, this is an overkill.). Another option is to add a getApplicationID() method to the Request class.
If you use a dependency injection framework, it may take care of object life cycles/scopes automatically for you, so the ApplicationData could be a request-scoped object and you could tell your dependency injection framework to instantiate ApplicationData objects based on requests and inject them into the classes where they get used.
Better to use for this purposes enum which implements ApplicationData interface and define each entry. You can resolve proper by valueOf() from enum.

Object Spy using Java

I am working on a project in Java where I should be able to launch a site and then recognize a browser Web Elements with a Mouse Over, like the Object Spy in QTP. The Elements that I hope to get are Name, Class Name, ID, Tagname, Linktext,Partial LinkText, CSS Xpath..etc..
I am kind of lost on how to bridge the Browser and the Application.Can anyone help?
Thank you in Advance.
Inject a javascript/Jquery code into the web page to capture element properties. You can pass the element back to Java class and catch it in a org.w3c.dom.HTMLElement object. Using the methods in the object, you can retrieve all the attributes corresponding to the Element.

How to convert action method to POST type in Jenkins/Hudson

I have implemented Action to create customized method url.
getURL(){ "sampleURL"}
doBuildNow(){//Method implementation}
So Here URL : http://hostserver/job/jobName/sampleURL/buildNow
I would like to use this method as POST which doesn't work by default, I didn't find any clue from google search. Can any one please help me on this.
In order to force a Jenkins action method to only accept a post, add the '#RequirePOST' annotation to the method.
#RequirePOST
doBuildNow(){//Method implementation}
This has the added benefit of automatically providing a 'Try POSTing' button when someone does a get via the browswer.
This is the behavior seen in Jenkins when accessing the '/exit' url.

How do you tell the reference path when loading a class?

I'm trying to use JavaLoader to load a java (HttpAsyncClient) class into ColdFusion.
client = loader.create("org.apache.commons.HttpAsyncClient")
How do we know the reference that is org.apache.commons.HttpAsyncClient? I thought if you open the jar file and follow the directory structure, it will give you the reference path. But I don't think this is true.
I'm trying to use the HttpAsyncClient but I'm unable to load it:
client = loader.create("org.apache.commons.HttpAsyncClient") returns a class not found error.
Loader is a reference to JavaLoader, which loads Java classes into your CF server.
Rather than reinvent the wheel, why not try an existing tool like Mark Mandel's AsyncHTTP library?
Update: From the comments, that tool is ACF only. So you might try using the concrete class DefaultHttpAsyncClient as shown in the Asynchronous HTTP Exchange example.
I don't know ColdFusion. You probably have to specify the full path to the class, not just the package containing the class.
According to an example I found the full package and class name is this: org.apache.http.nio.client.HttpAsyncClient
You can also use the javadoc to find out the package and class names: http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/index.html
Getting something async going with an interface like this will probably be brutal. I would suggest trying the sync version first.
EDIT
I would try adapting this sync example to CF: http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/examples/org/apache/http/examples/client/ClientWithResponseHandler.java
When you instantiate HttpGet you have to pass extra parameters to init() as they do in this example: http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2009/5/29/Generating-Speech-with-ColdFusion-and-Java
