vro workflow git

bwibot — Fri, 24 Mar 2023 10:50:37 GMT

Hi,

does anyone had used a git checkout script inside of a vro workflow?

Like checking out ansible or terraform yaml files and execute them directly with the ansible or terraform binary?

Terraform could also be stored in the git repo and will be used to execute the yaml files.

I really dislike the integration in vra where you need a complete k8s-cluster which is imho a really big overhead.

Javascript global constants vra8 vrealize aria orchestrator

bwibot — Tue, 21 Mar 2023 11:16:13 GMT

Hi,

is there anywhere documented which runtime variables are autogenerated, when a workflow is started?

I want to have like the scriptable task name or the workflow name which just has started.

No, the "arguments.callee.name.substr(6)" does not work. The variable arguments seems not to be defined.

How do i figure out, which variables are generated at runtime as so calles global constants ?

That there are global constants is documented in the developers guide for vra 8 but not which.

Does someone have a full list or a link to a documentation?

Like the workflow object is available but where is it documented ?

With "workflow.currentworkflow.name" i can get the actual workflow name but where is kind of a object explorer for it?

Which methods does it have? Which attributes ?

Thank you in advance !!

Powershell Action call another action in vra/vro

Hi,

before we used JavaScript for our Actions and implemted a lot of functionality.

Because of lack of parallelization we are now trying to use powershell.

Has anyone realized the functionality from JavaScript like System.GetModule("vraAction") in Powershell ?

When leveraging Connect-vRAServer i get:

The requested URL could not be retrieved The following
2022-09-01 13:55:56.762 +02:00error\u001B[96m | \u001B[91merror was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL:

2022-09-01 13:55:56.766 +02:00error\u001B[96m | \u001B[91mName Error: The domain name does not exist.

Of course i used the parameters -server -user and -password.

Does anyone have an idea ?

Best Regards
