public abstract class GlobalConfiguration
extends Descriptor<GlobalConfiguration>
implements ExtensionPoint, Describable<GlobalConfiguration>

Convenient base class for extensions that contributes to the system configuration page but nothing else, or to manage the global configuration of a plugin implementing several extension points.

All Descriptors are capable of contributing fragment to the system config page. If you are implementing other extension points that need to expose some global configuration, you can do so with global.groovy or global.jelly from your Descriptor instance. However each global.* file will appear as its own section in the global configuration page.

An option to present a single section for your plugin in the Jenkins global configuration page is to use this class to manage the configuration for your plugin and its extension points. To access properties defined in your GlobalConfiguration subclass, here are two possibilities:

• @Inject into your other Extensions (so this does not work for classes not annotated with Extension)
• access it via a call to ExtensionList.lookupSingleton(<your GlobalConfiguration subclass>.class)

While an implementation might store its actual configuration data in various ways, meaning configure(StaplerRequest, JSONObject) must be overridden, in the normal case you would simply define persistable fields with getters and setters. The config view would use data-bound controls like f:entry. Then make sure your constructor calls Descriptor.load() and your setters call Descriptor.save().

Views

Subtypes of this class should define a config.groovy file or config.jelly file that gets pulled into the system configuration page. Typically its contents should be wrapped in an f:section.

Method Detail

getDescriptor

public final Descriptor<GlobalConfiguration> getDescriptor()

Description copied from interface: Describable

Gets the descriptor for this instance.

Descriptor is a singleton for every concrete Describable implementation, so if a.getClass() == b.getClass() then by default a.getDescriptor() == b.getDescriptor() as well. (In rare cases a single implementation class may be used for instances with distinct descriptors.)

Specified by:

getDescriptor in interface Describable<GlobalConfiguration>

getGlobalConfigPage

public String getGlobalConfigPage()

Overrides:

getGlobalConfigPage in class Descriptor<GlobalConfiguration>

configure

public boolean configure(org.kohsuke.stapler.StaplerRequest req,
                         net.sf.json.JSONObject json)
                  throws Descriptor.FormException

By default, calls StaplerRequest.bindJSON(Object, JSONObject), appropriate when your implementation has getters and setters for all fields.

Invoked when the global configuration page is submitted. Can be overridden to store descriptor-specific information.

Overrides:

configure in class Descriptor<GlobalConfiguration>

json - The JSON object that captures the configuration data for this Descriptor. See http://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Structured+Form+Submission

Returns:

false to keep the client in the same config page.

Throws:

Descriptor.FormException

all

@Nonnull
public static ExtensionList<GlobalConfiguration> all()

Returns all the registered GlobalConfiguration descriptors.
