If you have been wondering what' an Active Choices
Reactive Reference parameter and how to use it, perhaps this little animated example can be helpful.
The example is destined for the Active Choices Plugin Jenkins wiki page.
What is a Reactive Reference parameter?
- it is a new build parameter (provided by the Active Choices plugin)
- it can be rendered as a variety of HTML elements
- it can respond to changes in other build parameters
- it is not propagated to the build; it is an empty build parameter
Why we do not propagate Reactive References to the build?
- they are rendered as HTML elements that can take not standard parameter values (such as pictures, UI elements, etc)
- they are used primarily to help you select a value in an another parameter
And now see the example and note how we use the WINE_RULE Reactive Reference
