How to pass parameter from velocity to Java class

lpopek

Hello, I wrote template in Velocity 

<header class="aui-page-header">
    <div class="aui-page-header-inner">
        <div class="aui-page-header-main">
            <h2><em>DDL Configuration Page</em></h2>
        </div>
        <div class="aui-page-header-actions">
            <div class="aui-buttons">
            <a id="add-issue-type" class="aui-button">
                Back
</a>
        </div>
    </div>
        </div>
        <form method="post" id="addGroup">
            <div class="aui-group">
                <div class="aui-item">
                    <div class="field-group">
                        <label for="text-input">Name<span class="aui-icon"></span></label>
                        <input class="text" type="text" id="d-fname" name="d-fname" title="first name">
                    </div>
                </div>
                <div class="aui-item">
                    <div class="field-group">
                        <label for="dBase">Type</label>
                        <select class="select" id="dBase" name="dBase" title="database select">
                            <option>Chose a type</option>
                            <option>JQL</option>
                            <option>Function</option>
                            <option>Rest</option>
                        </select>
                    </div>
        </div>
        <div class="aui-item">
            <label>Date</label>
            <input class="aui-date-picker" id="demo-range-always" type="date" max="2099-01-05" min="2011-12-25" />
        </div>
        <div class="aui-item">
            <button class="aui-button">Select</button>
        </div>
    </div>
    </form>
</header>

This looks pretty fine for me. The next step is, that I want to transfer this 3 variables to my method in Java class that accepts those parameters. 

public String getTestMethodFromEntry(){
log.info("METHOD to ADD SERIVCE:");
    ddlPanelEntrySerivce.addDDLEntry("test", "test", "test");
    ddlPanelEntrySerivce.addDDLEntry("test", "test", "test");
    ddlPanelEntrySerivce.addDDLEntry("test", "test", "test");
   return String.valueOf(ddlPanelEntrySerivce.getEntriesByType("test"));
}

Hello Stephen,

Your question is not clear for me but I can say that you can pass parameters from Velocity to java object instance.

First you should inject your Java class instance to velocity, 

map.put("ddlPanelEntryService", ddlPanelEntryService)

then you can use this variable in your velocity file using dollar sign 

$ddlPanelEntryService.addDDLEntry("param1", "param2", "param3")

I hope I wasn't missing anything
