Custom Endpoint

Follow this task to create a custom REST endpoint:

1. Select the Cog icon, and then select General Configuration.

2. Scroll to the ScriptRunner section in the left-hand navigation, and then select REST Endpoints.

3. Select Add a New Item, and then select the Custom Endpoint

Use the following REST endpoint example to examine the different parts of the script:

 
import com.onresolve.scriptrunner.runner.rest.common.CustomEndpointDelegate
import groovy.json.JsonBuilder
import groovy.transform.BaseScript

import javax.ws.rs.core.MultivaluedMap
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response

@BaseScript CustomEndpointDelegate delegate 

doSomething( 
    // bitbucket-administrators is a group we have added ourselves
    httpMethod: "GET", groups: ["bitbucket-administrators"] 
) { MultivaluedMap queryParams, String body -> 
    return Response.ok(new JsonBuilder([abc: 42]).toString()).build() 
}

Line 8: This line makes methods in your script recognizable as endpoints, which is required.

Line 10: The name of the REST endpoint, which forms part of the URL. In this example, it is doSomething.

Line 12: This line configures the endpoint and determines which HTTP verb to handle and what groups to allow.

Line 13: This line contains parameters that are provided to your method body.

Line 14: The body of your method, where you will return a javax.ws.rs.core.Response object.

You can add this REST endpoint to the list of configured endpoints as an inline script or by copying into a file and adding that file as a script file. To test this endpoint, type this text into your browser:

 
<bitbucket_base_url>/rest/scriptrunner/latest/custom/doSomething

Alternatively, you could type this into the command line utility:

 
curl -u admin:admin <bitbucket_base_url>/rest/scriptrunner/latest/custom/doSomething
{"abc":42}

If you are using a file, you can change the response. You may need to select the Scan button on the REST Endpoints page before calls to the endpoint return the new response. See the section on Script Root Scanning below.

Configuration

The general format of a method defining a REST endpoint is:

 
methodName (Map configuration, Closure closure)

For the configuration, only the following options are supported:

Use these parameters for the closure:

You can use any of these forms for your closure:

• something() { MultivaluedMap queryParams →
• something() { MultivaluedMap queryParams, String body ->
• something() { MultivaluedMap queryParams, String body, HttpServletRequest request ->

The contents of your closure depends on what you need access to.

Access Request URL

Sometimes you may need to use the URL path after your method name. In the following example, you want to retrieve /foo/bar:

 
<base_url>/rest/scriptrunner/latest/custom/doSomething/foo/bar

Use the 3-parameter form of the closure definition and call the getAdditionalPath method from the base class.

For example:

 
doSomething() { MultivaluedMap queryParams, String body, HttpServletRequest request ->

    def extraPath = getAdditionalPath(request)
    // extraPath will contain /foo/bar when called as above
}
