Scriptrunner Custom scheduled job response variable

[Daniel Garcia]

Custom scheduled jobs in scriptrunner have a bound variable

com.atlassian.scheduler.JobRunnerResponse response

How is this used?

I'm assuming something like this

try {
    doTheThing()
    response = JobRunnerResponse.success("it was good")

} catch (Exception ex) {
    response = JobRunnerResponse.failed("everything was terrible")
}

what value would that provide?

I am not sure if would provide much value in the Scriptrunner context since we get logs and execution details right from the ScriptRunner UI.

But I suspect that variable exists in the binding because they have to generate it to use the built-in scheduler component of Jira.

I think if you added a message to the job, you could view it in /secure/admin/SchedulerAdmin.jspa

This could be useful for other plugins that instantiate the JobRunnerResponse and don't track logs and success like the scriptrunner UI does.
