I'm trying to setup a github source webhook using the CfnWebhook class.
However, the builder only allows a Number on the targetPipelineVersion field and pipeline.getPipelineVersion() returns a string.
I need this to be sourced dynamically from the Pipeline object.
CfnWebhook.Builder.create(this, "githubWebhook")
//other properties...
.targetPipelineVersion(pipeline.getPipelineVersion())
.build();
Are there any alternatives to go around this?

We have an Azure pipeline building a static site. When there is a change in a content repository the site needs to be rebuilt. For that, we're using webhooks and Azure DevOps API. The request to queue the build is very simple and is illustrated for example here.
What I don't like about this is that int the build listing it says "Manually triggered for person XY", where the person XY is the one who generated the credentials used in the API request. It seems quite confusing because any API request seems strange to be labeled as "manually requested". What would be the best way how to achieve more semantically correct message?
I've found there is a reason property which can be sent in the request. But none of the values seems to represent what I want and some of them do not work (probably need additional properties and there is no documentation for that).
Based on my test, when you use the Rest API to queue a build and set the build reason, the reason could be shown in the Build(except：batchedCI and buildCompletion).
Here is the Rest API example:
Post https://dev.azure.com/Organization/Project/_apis/build/builds?api-version=4.1
Request Body:
{
"definition": {
"id": 372
},
"reason":"pullRequest"
}
The value : checkInShelveset individualCI pullRequest schedule could show their own names.
The value: manual and none could show manually trigger.
The other value(e.g. All, userCreated) will show Other Build Reason.
For the value: batchedCI and buildCompletion.
BatchedCI: Continuous integration (CI) triggered by a Git push or a TFVC check-in, and the Batch changes was selected.
This means that batch changes are required to achieve this trigger. So it doesn't support to queue build in Rest API .
buildCompletion: you could refer to this ticket This reason doesn't support in Rest API-queue Build.
Note: If you enter a custom value or misspelling, it will always display manual trigger.
In the end, I went with all value and also overriding the person via requestedFor property. This leads to the message "Other build reason", which seems usable to me.
{
"definition": {
"id": 17
},
"reason":"all",
"requestedFor": {
"id": "4f9ff423-0e0d-4bfb-9f6b-e76d2e9cd3ae"
}
}
However, I'm not sure if there aren't any unwanted consequences of this "All reasons" value.
I am trying to add Lambda#Edge association in cloudfront using cloudformation. As per aws docs they had only two fields like EventType and LambdaFunctionARN . But i want to add IncludeBody in cloudformation so that my Lambda#Edge will read the body of the request . When i try to add IncludeBody in cloudformation it is saying error like invalid property.
"LambdaFunctionAssociations":
[
{
"EventType": "origin-response",
"IncludeBody":"true" -- Invalid property error
"LambdaFunctionARN": "arn:aws:lambda:us-east-1:134952096518:function:LambdaEdge:1"
}
]
So, can't i add this through cloudformation . Or i need to do it manually from console ?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
According to AWS docs, there is an IncludeBody property for LambdaFunctionAssociations. But they also say that it can only be used for "viewer-request" and "origin-request" EventTypes. It looks like you have an "origin-response" EventType, so IncludeBody shouldn't be applicable here. Yet, in the official CloudFormation reference, there is no mention of IncludeBody. So I can only guess that CloudFormation is missing this feature right now and you may only be able to set IncludeBody via the API.
So as a part of some tests to automatically accept / merge successful pipelines in our git repository i was running some tests to flag the "merge when pipeline succeeds" feature when the pipeline is still running:
So this button is available when the pipeline is still running and will convert to a green 'Accept merge' button when the pipeline succeeds:
(note that this picture was taken afterwards not to confuse the use-case)
additionally i have set these general settings:
So when checking the Gitlab API Documentation it says i should use the following endpoint:
PUT /projects/:id/merge_requests/:merge_request_iid/merge
when using the parameter ?merge_when_pipleline_succeeds=true it should flag the button.
However when i call this endpoint when the pipeline is still running (i built in a wait for 10 mins while testing this) i get the following result:
i am getting a Method Not Allowed. My assumption is that the endpoint i am using is correct because otherwise i would've gotten a bad request / not found return code.
when checking the gitlab merge request i am seeing that indeed the flag is not set to true:
However, when i manually click the blue button the mergerequest looks like this:
Also if i let the pipeline finish and then proceed to call the merge api (w/ or w/o the merge when pipeline succeeds flag) it will accept the merge. It just does not work when the pipeline is running (which is odd because even the button itself only shows when the pipeline is running)
so i am wondering what I am doing wrong here.
I am using a Powershell module to call the GitLab API. The Accept part of the module is not official and was made by myself because i found this feature missing.
I am using the same credentials for the API w/ a personal access token to authenticate to the API. Other functionality of the API work with this token like creating merge requests, retrieving status of a current MR and accepting a MR when the pipeline is finished.
I have tried the following variants :
Use the V3 api with merge_when_build_succeeds=true --> nets the same
result
Uncheck the "Only allow merge request to be merged if the
pipeline succeeds" --> nets the same result
Use ID of the merge request instead of IID
use /merge_when_pipeline_succeeds instead of ?merge_when_pipeline_succeeds=true
use True instead of true --> nets the same result
I get a similar issue with the python-gitlab library on v4. It works sometimes when I use:
mr.merge(merge_when_pipeline_succeeds=True)
Where mr is a ProjectMergeRequest object. However, if the MR has a merge conflict in it I get that 405 Method Not Allowed error back.
My best guess is to see if I can apply logic before calling mr.merge() to check for problems. Will update this if that works.
UPDATE: Looks like there is no feature to check for conflicts as of today. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/41762
UPDATE 2: You can check merge_status when looking at the MR information, so either that attribute or an exception then mr.merge() fails would let you identify when it won't work.
I was ecstatic when I got a simple webhook event listener working with GitHub push events on my Azure site, but I realize now I'm not seeing the branch name or id in the json payload (example here https://developer.github.com/v3/activity/events/types/#pushevent)
I thought maybe "tree_id" would be it, but it doesn't seem to be. I couldn't find any info about this in GitHubs's doc. Maybe I need to take one of the id's from the event and make another api call to get the branch? The reason for this is I want to be able to link GitHub push events with my app portfolio, which has branches defined. So, the push events are a way to see code change activity on my different apps -- and knowing the branch is therefore important.
I wrote to GitHub support, and they told me that the branch name is part of the "ref" element in the root of the json payload. When parsing from a JToken object called jsonBody, the C# looks like this
var branchName = jsonBody["ref"].ToString().Split('/').Last();
For example in "refs/heads/master", the branch name is "master"
You need to pay closer look on WEBHOOK response mainly. Here is the trick for JSONPATH ( at-least what I did with my jenkins job):
first read your webhook whole response with character "$". You can catch it is some variable like:
$webhookres='$'
echo $webhookres
Once you have response printed, copy it and paste here: https://jsonpath.com/
Now create your pattern. For example if you want branch name (if event is push):
$.ref
Once you have the branch name( it will have extra string with /), simply trim the unwanted part using awk or cut (linux commands).
You are not limited to this only. All you need to work on pattern and you can make use of this approach for getting other values as well like, author, git repo url etc. and then these can be used in your automation further.
even if you are using any other platform like Azure, JSONPATH concept will be same. because as suggested in accepted answer, "jsonBody["ref"]", it is equivalent to $.ref, as altogether you have to identify the PATTERN ( as here PATTERN is 'ref')
We are configuring the Quartz Scheduler data sources as specified in the documentation that is by providing all the details without encrypting the data base details. By this the data base details are exposed to the other users and any one who have access to the file system can easily get hands on.
So are there any other ways to provide the data sources details using API or provide the database details by encrypting and providing the details as part of quartz.properties file
On class "StdSchedulerFactory" you can call the method "initialize(Properties props)" to set needed propertries by API. Then you don't need a property-file. (See: StdSchedulerFactory API)
Example:
public Scheduler createSchedulerWithProperties(Properties props)
throws SchedulerException {
StdSchedulerFactory factory = new StdSchedulerFactory(props);
return factory.getScheduler();
}
But then you have to set all properties of SchedulerFactory. Also the properties, that have a default value with default constructor. (Search for 'quartz.properties' inside of 'quartz-2.2.X.jar' to get default property values of quartz.)
