Overview

---

• Devops Deploy processes allows a user to automate a set of repeatable tasks in a orderly fashion and execute them on configured target machines.

• Processes can be configured at 3 places in the product, Application, Component , Processes and the processes configured here are termed as Application Process, Component Process, Generic Process respectively.

• The aim of this project/tool is to allow users to configure their processes in a source code repo like GIT and make it their single source truth and place for users to collaborate to enhance their processes.

• This tool currently allows users to use json format to define processes and works with existing processes in 'Devops Deploy'.

History

• All files related to a process will be downloaded into a single directory.
• Included support for process configuration and properties in the json/yaml process script.

Version 3.1

• Added support to download all processes for a given scope (Application/Component/Generic Processes).

Version 3.0

• Added support to upload/download component template processes and application template processes.

Version 2.0

• Output json file is pretty printed.

• Added support to pass comments while uploading a process. The comments are mandatory when an user has Require a Comment For Process Design Changes enabled in the system settings of DevOps Deploy.Comments should be enclosed in double quotes.

  Syntax:

  <upload-command> <username> <password> <server-url> <input-file> "comments to add while updating process"

  Example:

  upload-generic-process admin admin http://localhost:8443 simple-shell-process.json "Changed the Regex in shell step to process only text files."

• Added Support to inject the value of a plugin property from a separate file if a user needs. The file path should be prefixed with scriptFile/ in the respective Json or Yaml files as shown in below Examples:

  { 
    "properties": {
          "prop1": "val1",
          "prop2": "scriptFile/PropDetails.txt"
    }
  }

  properties:
      prop1: "val1"

  {
      "postProcessingScript": {
        "name": "MyScript",
        "body": "scriptFile/MyScript.txt"
      }
  }

postProcessingScript:
    name: "MyScript"
    body: "scriptFile/MyScript.txt"
