WhereScape presents RED 10.4 a new version of RED. The features implemented in this version are mainly focused on enabling 3rd party integrations with external tools like GIT, but also enhances the UI  and enables the ability to add scripted workflows based on the current context in the RED UI. 

Workflow Scripts

Workflow scripts, when defined, will appear in the context menu throughout the RED UI.  When clicking on them in any context menu, the underlying script will be executed and provided with the complete object list contained by the context. This allows for integration scripts to be written that can perform actions on lists of objects, such as: creating deployment applications, checking items in and out of GIT, running external tests on the objects selected, exporting data to catalog tools, backing up scripts to disk and more!

Improvements for 3rd Party Integrations

  • CheckIn/CheckOut feature will now trigger execution of a script, if present, to support GIT integrations. Add script names of wsl_workflow_checkin and wsl_workflow_checkout to enable this feature.
  • Added new endpoints to the RED metadata service, objectsExportByName and jobsExportByName, that export metadata in a GIT friendly format.
  • Deployment Application Creation via command line now accepts a specific set of objects to deploy based on the JSON structure that RED Workflow scripts produce.
  • RedCli commands on script, procedure and templates now support an 'export-all' option, useful for GIT integrations. Additionally single export allows specifying a directory for auto creation of the filename and extension for the object.
