confluence groovy sample scripts missing --- community effort to build a script to write metadata in 4.x

[Sven]

Hello,

currently I'm trying to write metadata to a specific page.

It is difficult to find good groovy sample scripts, I'll share here my findings.
If you have anything to make better, don't hesitate...

Current problems:

1) I have "pagemanager"-object and I need to come from there to

contentPropertyManager.setTextProperty(contentEntityObject, "your.key", "your value");

to be able to write the value...

2) I have a "ContentEntityObject" but it is from current page, not from an indicated page...

Thanks,

Sven

Here I am for the moment:

[Sven · Accepted solution]

That was a hard one, see below...

see in comment --- sorry, everytime I want to paste in the groovy code I'll get an error 500 ;-/ finally something stayed there...

(add below {groovy}...{groovy}-Tags around ;-)

Finally I could paste this in, little bit ugly...

def ContentPropertyManager mycpm = ( ContentPropertyManager ) ContainerManager.getComponent( 'contentPropertyManager' )
def Page mypageZiel = new Page()
mypageZiel = pageManager.getPage('space_key', 'titleofentry')
mycpm.setTextProperty(mypageZiel, 'metadata.Startdatum', 'startdatum')

[Sven]

imports...

def ContentPropertyManager mycpm = ( ContentPropertyManager ) ContainerManager.getComponent( 'contentPropertyManager' );
def Page mypageZiel = new Page();
mypageZiel = pageManager.getPage('space_key', 'titleofentry');
mycpm.setTextProperty(mypageZiel, 'metadata.Startdatum', 'startdatum');
mycpm.setTextProperty(mypageZiel, 'metadata.Fällig bis', 'faelligbis');
mycpm.setTextProperty(mypageZiel, 'metadata.Verantwortlich', 'verantwortlich');
