Remove XML tags

[Christian Rasp]

Hi,

we are trying to find a way to remove certain XML tags, after they were created.

For example, this works fine:

job('remove-all-publishers') {

  publishers {
    deployArtifacts()

    archiveJunit('**/target/**/*.xml')

  }

  configure { Node project ->

    Node publishers = project / publishers

    if (publishers) {

      project.remove(publishers)

    }

  }

}

But on the next level, this won't work anymore:

job('remove-only-test-result-publishing') {

  publishers {
    deployArtifacts()

    archiveJunit('**/target/**/*.xml')

  }

  configure { Node project ->

    Node publishTest = project / publishers / 'hudson.tasks.junit.JUnitResultArchiver'

    if (publishTest) {

      project.remove(publishTest)

    }

  }

}

Does the remove action only work for tags on the first level or am I missing something in the syntax?

Regards

Christian

Hi Christian. You need to remove the node from its parent. Something like this should work:

(project / publishers).remove(publishTest)

or 

publishTest.parent().remove(publishTest)

Hi Matt,

thank you so much. This XML Node thingy is quite confusing :)

The following jobs are equivalent:

job('remove-test-result-publishing') {

  publishers {

    archiveJunit('**/target/**/*.xml')

  }

  configure { Node project ->

    Node publishTest = project / publishers / 'hudson.tasks.junit.JUnitResultArchiver'

    if (publishTest) {

      (project / publishers).remove(publishTest)

    }

  }

}

job('empty-job') {}
