Pass Parameter in Redwood script

[former_member237959]

Hi All,

Can anyone please help me how to pass parameter in a Redwood script.

For example:

jobdefparam.setDefaultExpression("BTCHWM");

How can I pass "BTCHWM" as a parameter.

Also please help me how to pass a chain level parameter in "post running action" of a script.

Regards,

Lohit

Hello,

Define a parameter on the RedwoodScript job definition in the parameters tab, for instance call it defaultValue.

Now in your code you can just refer to it:

jobdefparam.setDefaultExpression(defaultValue);

To fetch a chain parameter in a postrunning action you need to look up the chain from jcsJob (the 'current' job) using something like:

Job chain = jcsJob.getParentJob().getParentJob(); // first the step, then the chain

String parameterValue = chain.getJobParameterByName("parameter name").getInValueString();

Thank you very much Gerben.

As you said, I tried to refer the Chain level parameter using the below script

Job jc = jcsJob.getParentJob().getParentJob();
String jcparam = jc.getJobParameterByName("JOBCHAINNAME").getInValueString();
JobDefinition aJobDef = jcsSession.getJobDefinitionByName(jcparam);
Job aJob = aJobDef.prepare();

I am getting the below error. Please advise.
