Post-Job Action module

Available:

Bamboo 2.7 and later

Purpose of this Module Type

Post-Job Action modules allow plugins to define custom functionality that runs after all the results for jobs belonging to the stage have been returned to the server and saved to the database.

Configuration

The root element for the Post-Job Action module is postJobAction. It allows the following attributes and child elements for configuration:

Attributes

Name*	Description
class	The class which implements this plugin module. The class you need to provide depends on the module type. For example, Confluence theme, layout and colour-scheme modules can use classes already provided in Confluence. So you can write a theme-plugin without any Java code. But for macro and listener modules you need to write your own implementing class and include it in your plugin. See the plugin framework guide to creating plugin module instances.
key	The unique identifier of the plugin module. You refer to this key to use the resource from other contexts in your plugin, such as from the plugin Java code or JavaScript resources. 1 2 `<component-import key="appProps" interface="com.atlassian.sal.api.ApplicationProperties"/>` In the example, `appProps` is the key for this particular module declaration, for `component-import`, in this case.
name	The human-readable name of the plugin module. Only used in the plugin's administrative user interface.
