Accessing Process Name, Container Name and Step Name within

These are in the ProcessContext which is passed to the service.  I think the only way to get them from a Stylesheet is to use the JavaScript parameter on the XSLT service and copy the values either to StyleSheet Parameters (which you didn't want to do), or to XQMessage headers.   Then you could use the 'getHeader' XSL extension to see them.

In the JavaScript, you have access to the XQServiceContext, and the XQMessage object.   You can just do something like:

//Copy the Process Name into the header of the Message.
XQMessage.setHeader('XSL-ProcessName', XQServiceContext.getProcessContext().getName())

,

Thanks for your response.

How would I use Javascript to copy the values to the stylesheet parameters? I didn't want to hardcode the process name by specifying"processName=myProcessABC" in the stylesheet parameters run time parameters field, but if I could read them from Javascript, that would work fo rme.

Thanks,

Wendy

(Copied from older documentation on the ESB --- I could not find this in the online help for Sonic ESB XML Transformation)

The basic use of the transformation service is to apply a stylesheet to a message to transform the format of the content. The parameter stylesheet URL specifies the default stylesheet to apply to the message part index and the stylesheet parameters. Optionally, you can apply a different stylesheet to a different message part with a different stylesheet parameter.

For advanced transformations, you can override the default stylesheet and have a behavior based on message content and headers (that is, apply a rules-based selection of the  transformation). A rules-based transformation selection provides flexibility in the choice of transformation based on message contents and header values.

The key component of this feature is a JavaScript RuleEvaluator that evaluates transformation rules written in the JavaScript scripting language (using the Rhino JavaScript Engine). The JavaScript rules govern the choice of transformation to be applied on the input message. The transformation rule contains multiple conditions; all defined conditionsare applied to every request. The rule uses accessor objects to retrieve header and content values from the input message and determine which transformation to apply to that request.

Rules-based processing offers the ability to choose between transformations based on any of the following:

• Runtime parameters
• Message XML content (using XPath APIs)
• Message header values
• Calls to external Java classes or adapters

The transformation rule is defined in a JavaScript file, the URL of which is specified by the configuration parameter ruleFile. In all cases, the JavaScript rule file must have a
function, rule( ). This function can return one of the following:

• null — No transformation is applied to the incoming message
• An ArrayList containing the stylesheetURL — The stylesheet is applied on the first part (index = 0) of the incoming message
• An ArrayList containing the stylesheetURL and a msgPart index (in that order) — The stylesheet is applied on the specified part of the incoming message
• An ArrayList containing the stylesheetURL, a msgPart index, and a HashMap of stylesheet parameters (in that order) —
  The stylesheet parameters are passed to the XSLT processor and the stylesheet is applied on the specified part of the incoming message)

The ruleFile containing the rule( ) function is an optional service configuration parameter. When the ruleFile is not specified, the service uses the default stylesheetURL, msgPartIndex (default value 0) and stylesheetParams (default value "") configuration parameters.

Here is an example of the rule( ) function that returns an ArrayList object containing the stylesheetURL, the msgPart index, and a HashMap of stylesheet
parameters.

function rule()
{
  JMSPriority = XQ_getProperty("JMSPriority", -1);
  if (JMSPriority > 4 )
  {
    myArray = new java.util.ArrayList();
    //Create a Params HashMap and add name value pairs in it.
    paramsHashMap = new java.util.HashMap();
    paramsHashMap.put("amount","1000");
    paramsHashMap.put("deliveryDate","10/21/01");
    //Create MsgPartIndex Integer
    msgPart = new java.lang.Integer(0);
    myArray.add("sonicfs:///stylesheets/priority.xsl");
    myArray.add(msgPart);
    myArray.add(paramsHashMap);
    return myArray;
  }
  else
     return null;
}

I just realized that the container name is not available in the XQProcessContext, though process name and step name are. Do you kno where I might go to get the container name from within a javascript file?

Thanks.

The Container name is available even when not in a Process, so it is on the XQServiceContext (and the subclass, XQInitContext).  It is available as a Parameter.  Something like:

 // Get the Container Name from the XQServiceContext
 XQServiceContext.getParameters().getParameter(XQConstants.PARAM_CONTAINER_NAME, XQConstants.PARAM_STRING)
 
 //(NOTE:in JavaScript, you may need to qualify the entire Packages.com.sonicsw.xq.XQConstants.)
 //
 

See the doc on:

com.sonicsw.xq
Interface XQContext

Subinterfaces:   XQInitContext, XQServiceContext

com.sonicsw.xq
Interface XQParameters

com.sonicsw.xq
Interface XQConstants

Without fully qualifying XQConstants, I am getting a undefined error. However when I fully qualify it, I get the following error. Any ideas how to resolve this?

This is what I have in my javascript:

XQServiceContext.getParameters().getParameter(com.sonicsw.xq.XQConstants.PARAM_CONTAINER_NAME, com.sonicsw.xq.XQConstants.PARAM_STRING);

You can always just get the values and use those directly

I think this was recently on the Sonic Forum... my mistake for not remembering... but in JavaScript you need to use "Packages." as the prefix (so "Packages.com.sonicws.xq.XQConstants").

See the related post:  /javascript:;

I have had good luck with the following as well.  This will allow you to import all classes within a particular pkg and not have to fully qualify your name every time, if that is desirable to you.

importPackage(Packages.foo.bar.name)

function whatever() {

     name = new Name();

}

where Name is a class within package foo.bar.name.

HTH.
