I'm trying to extend the config-file-provider in support of https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-43204
My thoughts are to utilize the token-macro plugin to do the expansion, especially since it's already a dependency of the config-file-provider Unfortunately, I'm not a strong Java developer. I work mostly in Perl and a little bit of Python so I feel I'm failing to figure out how to do this correctly. I see no way to instantiate a TokenMacro (or DataBoundTokenMacro) object with a key / value pair such that I can create a List<TokenMacro> to pass to TokenMacro.expand to do the actual work. My intent is to either extend the custom file type itself to support defined credentials that get automatically expanded in the configuration file, or a brand new file type that does this. At this point, I've basically cloned the properties file type which allows me to define tokenized credentials and just write them back out to the file when the file gets rendered to disk. Now I'm trying to take the next step and actually convert those into something that TokenMacro can then expand for me in the defined file but as I said, I'm failing to figure out how instantiate the object. If I'm going about this all wrong, I would love to know that too, but this seems like it should be fairly straight forward to me to leverage this. -Andy- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
