Editing a Dashboard view

[Jacqueline Taing]

I wrote a plugin that extends from Dashboard view. The dashboard has default values for entries in the Create View form. Sample content in configure-entries.jelly is below:

    <f:section title="Dashboard Content">

        <f:entry title="Build Age (Days)"

                 help="/plugin/quality-dashboard/help/help-configBuildAge.html">

            <f:textbox name="daysFilter" field="daysFilter" default="7" />

        </f:entry>

The dashboard gets created properly (e.g. non-default values are used in the dashboard created), but when I click Edit View link, the form does not show the values that were used to create the view.  Instead, it shows the default values for the fields.

How do I properly implement this so that current values used are propagated? Do I need to create a different .jelly file for Edit View?

Thanks!

If values are not restored then check:

- do you have public getters for all your fields of the entry?

- do the names of fields of the entry match with the names in the constructor?

The answer to both questions is yes.

The problem is when I do Edit View. Somehow, the values entered when view was created is not getting persisted.  I have a feeling I'm missing a call to save these values?  How do I do that?

Here are the relevant functions in .java file for my dashboard (extends hudson.plugins.view.dashboard.Dashboard):

public class QualityDashboard extends Dashboard {

    /**

     * QualityDashboard constructor.

     * 

     * @param name Name for this dashboard

     */

    @DataBoundConstructor

    public QualityDashboard(String name) {

        super(name);

    }

    @Override

    protected synchronized void submit(StaplerRequest sr) 

            throws IOException, ServletException, Descriptor.FormException {

        super.submit(sr);

        JSONObject json = sr.getSubmittedForm();

        if (sr.getParameter("daysFilter") != null) {

            buildIncludeDays = Integer.parseInt(sr.getParameter("daysFilter"));

        }

        else {

            buildIncludeDays = DEFAULT_BUILD_INCLUDE_DAYS;

        }

        if (sr.getParameter("buildFlowFolder") != null) {

            buildFlowFolder = sr.getParameter("buildFlowFolder");

        }

        if (sr.getParameter("buildFlowNameFilter") != null) {

            buildFlowNameFilter = sr.getParameter("buildFlowNameFilter");

        }

        if (sr.getParameter("testFlowFolder") != null) {

            testFlowFolder = sr.getParameter("testFlowFolder");

        }

        if (sr.getParameter("testFlowNameFilter") != null) {

            testFlowNameFilter = sr.getParameter("testFlowNameFilter");

        }

        if (sr.getParameter("testIgnoreList") != null) {

            String ignoreStr = sr.getParameter("testIgnoreList");

            ignoreFailuresList = Arrays.asList(ignoreStr.split(","));

        }

        if (sr.getParameter("testReviewList") != null) {

            String reviewStr = sr.getParameter("testReviewList");

            reviewFailuresList = Arrays.asList(reviewStr.split(","));

        }

        // TODO: Exclude other DashboardPortlets 

        topPortlets = Descriptor.newInstancesFromHeteroList(sr, json, 

                                                            "topPortlet", 

                                                            DashboardPortlet.all());

        // TODO: Exclude other DashboardPortlets 

        bottomPortlets = Descriptor.newInstancesFromHeteroList(sr, json, 

                                                               "bottomPortlet", 

                                                               DashboardPortlet.all());

    }

    /**

     * Required for View configuration

     */

    @Extension 

    public static final class DescriptorImpl extends ViewDescriptor {

        /**

         * Get the display name

         *

         * @return display name

         */

        @Override

        public String getDisplayName() {

            return "DSSD Build Quality Dashboard";

        }

    }
