Class TopLevelItemDescriptor

    • Constructor Detail

      • TopLevelItemDescriptor

        protected TopLevelItemDescriptor​(Class<? extends TopLevelItem> clazz)

      • TopLevelItemDescriptor

        protected TopLevelItemDescriptor()
        Infers the type of the corresponding TopLevelItem from the outer class. This version works when you follow the common convention, where a descriptor is written as the static nested class of the describable class.

    • Method Detail

      • isApplicable

        public boolean isApplicable​(Descriptor descriptor)
        TopLevelItemDescriptors often uses other descriptors to decorate itself. This method allows the subtype of TopLevelItemDescriptors to filter them out.

        This is useful for a workflow/company specific item type that wants to eliminate options that the user would see.

        Since:
        1.294

      • checkApplicableIn

        public final void checkApplicableIn​(ItemGroup parent)
        Checks if this top level item is applicable within the specified item group.

        This is just a convenience function.

        Since:
        1.607

      • testInstance

        public boolean testInstance​(TopLevelItem i)
        Tests if the given instance belongs to this descriptor, in the sense that this descriptor can produce items like the given one.

        TopLevelItemDescriptors that act like a wizard and produces different object types than Descriptor.clazz can override this method to augment instance-descriptor relationship.

        Since:
        1.410

      • getDisplayName

        @NonNull
public String getDisplayName()
        Human readable name of this kind of configurable object. Should be overridden for most descriptors, if the display name is visible somehow. As a fallback it uses Class.getSimpleName() on Descriptor.clazz, so for example MyThing from some.pkg.MyThing.DescriptorImpl. Historically some implementations returned null as a way of hiding the descriptor from the UI, but this is generally managed by an explicit method such as isEnabled or isApplicable.

        Used as the caption when the user chooses what item type to create. The descriptor implementation also needs to have newInstanceDetail.jelly script, which will be used to render the text below the caption that explains the item type.

        Overrides:
        getDisplayName in class Descriptor<TopLevelItem>

      • getDescription

        @NonNull
public String getDescription()
        A description of this kind of item type. This description can contain HTML code but it is recommended that you use plain text in order to be consistent with the rest of Jenkins. This method should be called from a thread where Stapler is handling an HTTP request, otherwise it will return an empty string.
        Returns:
        A string, by default the value from newInstanceDetail view is taken.

@Deprecated
public String getIconFilePathPattern()
        Deprecated.
        prefer getIconClassName()
        Represents a file path pattern to get the Item icon in different sizes. For example: plugin/plugin-shortname/images/:size/item.png, where :size represents the different icon sizes used commonly in Jenkins project: 16x16, 24x24, 32x32 or 48x48
        Returns:
        A string or null if it is not defined.
