isChangeInDevelopment

This step checks if a certain change is in status 'in development'

Description

This step checks if a certain change is in status 'in development'

Usage

We recommend to define values of step parameters via .pipeline/config.yml file.
In this case, calling the step is essentially reduced to defining the step name.
Calling the step can be done either in an orchestrator specific way (e.g. via a Jenkins library step) or on the command line.

JenkinsCommand Line

library('piper-lib-os')

isChangeInDevelopment script: this

piper isChangeInDevelopment

Outputs

Output type	Details
commonPipelineEnvironment	custom/isChangeInDevelopment

Prerequisites

• You have an SAP Solution Manager user to which you have assigned the roles required for uploading. See SAP Solution Manager Administration.
• You have created a change document.
• You have installed the Change Management Client with the needed certificates. See Change Management Client.

Specifying the Change Document

The target of the status check is a change document identified by an identifier (ID).

Specify the ID by step parameter or common pipeline environment.

Return Value

The step isChangeInDevelopment returns a boolean value by setting the custom key custom.isChangeInDevelopment of the common pipeline environment:

• true if the change document is in status in development.

• false if the change document is not in status in development. In this case, AbortException terminates the execution of the pipeline job.

// pipeline script
  isChangeInDevelopment( script: this )
  ...

You can omit this exception by setting the configuration parameter failIfStatusIsNotInDevelopment to false:

// pipeline script
  isChangeInDevelopment( script: this, failIfStatusIsNotInDevelopment: false )

  if(commonPipelineEnvironment.getValue( 'isChangeInDevelopment' ) {
    ...
  }
