Script Console
Use the Script Console to run one-off ad hoc scripts and to learn and experiment with the Confluence API.
You can type your script directly into the browser or click the File tab, where you type the path to a file. The file can be a fully qualified pathname to a .groovy file that is accessible to the server. If you provide a relative pathname, the file is resolved relative to your script roots. By default, there is one script root automatically created, <confluence_home>/scripts/.
Read more about script roots and script plugins.
Examples
You can use one of these examples in your instance or modify it to fit a new situation.
Enumerate All Public Spaces
Use the following code to return all names of all global spaces:
import com.atlassian.confluence.spaces.SpaceManager
import com.atlassian.sal.api.component.ComponentLocator
def spaceManager = ComponentLocator.getComponent(SpaceManager)
spaceManager.allSpaces.findAll {
it.isGlobal()
}.collect {
it.name
}
List Pages and Authors Across Spaces
Use the following code to find all spaces, pages, and authors for all spaces in the Confluence instance.
This example is limited to three spaces and ten pages because it's not practical to hold all this information in a string for large instances.
The code returns a Map, where the keys are the Space objects and the values are a list of Page objects.
import com.atlassian.confluence.pages.Page
import com.atlassian.confluence.pages.PageManager
import com.atlassian.confluence.spaces.Space
import com.atlassian.confluence.spaces.SpaceManager
import com.atlassian.sal.api.component.ComponentLocator
import groovy.xml.MarkupBuilder
def spaceManager = ComponentLocator.getComponent(SpaceManager)
def pageManager = ComponentLocator.getComponent(PageManager)
def spaces = spaceManager.allSpaces.findAll { it.isGlobal() }.take(3) // <1>
Map<Space, List<Page>> pagesInfo = spaces.collectEntries { space ->
[
(space): pageManager.getPages(space, true).findAll {
it instanceof Page
}.take(10) //<2>
]
}
Line 12: Gets the first three spaces in this Confluence instance
Line 18: Gets page information for up to ten pages for each space
To view this data in a more organized way, format the data into a table by appending this code to the example code above:
def writer = new StringWriter()
def builder = new MarkupBuilder(writer)
builder.table(class: "aui") {
thead {
tr {
th("Space")
th("Page")
th("Author")
}
}
tbody {
pagesInfo.each { space, pages ->
if (pages.size() > 0) {
pages.each { page ->
tr {
th {
b(space.name)
}
td(page.title)
td(page.creator?.name ?: "N/A")
}
}
}
}
}
}
return writer.toString()
When you click Run, your screen should appear like this:
Disable Inactive Users
Test all potentially wide-ranging operations like this in a staging environment first.
Use the following code to disable all the users who are inactive for the last three months:
import com.atlassian.confluence.security.PermissionManager
import com.atlassian.confluence.security.login.LoginManager
import com.atlassian.confluence.user.UserAccessor
import com.atlassian.sal.api.component.ComponentLocator
import com.atlassian.user.UserManager
import groovy.time.TimeCategory
def userManager = ComponentLocator.getComponent(UserManager)
def userAccessor = ComponentLocator.getComponent(UserAccessor)
def loginManager = ComponentLocator.getComponent(LoginManager)
def permissionManager = ComponentLocator.getComponent(PermissionManager)
def threeMonthsBack
use(TimeCategory) {
threeMonthsBack = 3.months.ago // <1>
}
def users = userManager.users // <2>
def page = users.currentPage
while (true) {
page.each { user ->
if (userAccessor.isDeactivated(user)) {
return
}
log.debug(user)
def userLoginInfo = loginManager.getLoginInfo(user) // <3>
def lastSuccessfulLoginDate = userLoginInfo?.lastSuccessfulLoginDate
def toDeactivate = !lastSuccessfulLoginDate || lastSuccessfulLoginDate < threeMonthsBack // <4>
if (toDeactivate) {
log.warn "Found user: ${user.name} with last login date ${lastSuccessfulLoginDate}, will deactivate"
return // <5>
if (!permissionManager.isSystemAdministrator(user)) { // <6>
log.info "Deactivating user.."
userAccessor.deactivateUser(user)
}
}
}
if (users.onLastPage()) {
return
} else {
users.nextPage()
}
}
Line 15: Selects a date three months prior to today
Line 17: Gets all the users
Line 30: Gets login information for a specific user to get the last successful login date
Line 33: Compares the two dates to see whether the user is inactive for the last three months, or if they have never logged in
Line 36: Prints the message. You can remove this return statement to actually disable the messages
Line 38: Disables the user if the user is required and not a system administrator
The script takes a while to execute if you have a large user base.
Add/Remove User from Group
The following example shows how to add or remove users from Confluence groups. In this example, a group called deactivated users is created. You could combine this code with the example code above to move all deactivated users to a group for easy identification.
import com.atlassian.confluence.user.UserAccessor
import com.atlassian.sal.api.component.ComponentLocator
import com.atlassian.user.GroupManager
def groupManager = ComponentLocator.getComponent(GroupManager)
def userAccessor = ComponentLocator.getComponent(UserAccessor)
def inactiveGroup = groupManager.getGroup("Deactivated users") ?: groupManager.createGroup("Deactivated users") // <1>
def usersToMove = ["anuser", "u100"] // <2>
usersToMove.each { username ->
def user = userAccessor.getUserByName(username)
if (user) {
log.info "Removing user ${user.name} from confluence-users"
def confUsersGroup = groupManager.getGroup("confluence-users")
groupManager.removeMembership(confUsersGroup, user) // <3>
log.info "Add user ${user.name} to the group: 'Deactivated Users'"
groupManager.addMembership(inactiveGroup, user) // <4>
}
}
Line 8: Creates a new user group, Deactivated Users, if it does not exist
Line 10: Defines the hard-coded list of users to modify
Line 19: Removes group membership for the user
Line 22: Adds the user to the group created in step 1
