I
think Duncan missed a step out in his explanation…
What
you would need to do is create a template for each file from your copy rule, and
make a Template rule for each of the files that you change in this way (instead
of one global rule).
It
effectively would be a template rule with “plain text” in
side.

Hi
Richard, Hi Duncan
Thanks
again for your help.
The copy
rule trully copies things. If we copy a VM template, the script in it will not
run.
The
template rule + supressing empty file work in some cases.

There is
a workaround to the copy rule limitation: by copying the contents of the
file you were copying to a velocity template and adding the condition at
the top of the template. Then the template contents will be copied to the output
file you specify depending on whether the condition is satisfied.

Hi
Jinzhai,
There
is no way to trigger a global rule conditionally at
present.
For
template rules, you can mimic this behavior:
a)
Add
a condition at the top of the template prior to generating any output. In this
condition you could for example, check the size of the $sessions collection.
b)
This
would then create an empty file if the condition is not met, so you can then
clear up empty files in the rule definition using the “Suppress Empty Files”
check box.
c)
NOTE
: This would potentially overwrite existing files, but I don’t think that is
what you are trying to avoid here.
I
don’t know of any way of getting round the copy rule limitation
though.
Hope
this helps,
Richard

Subject: [tigerstripe-dev] Can I run global rules

Hi
team,
Would
please help me in following question:
the
question is: can I run global rules conditionally? I'm
working with Tigerstripe workbench 0.5.0.x

- Global
Rules - File/Directory Copy Rule:
For example, , I want to generate web servcies definitions (XSD and WSDL) from
tigerstripe models. Now given a model, IF the model is relevant with
notification, THEN I will copy existing WS-notification XSD/WSDL files to target
folder; ELSE IF the model is not relevant with notification, THEN
nothing will be copied.
- Global
Rules - Global Template Rule:
The case
is: I have one VM template in my tigerstripe generator, when I run the generator
agaist a model, the VM should run only IF the model meets
some global condition (e.g. the model contains at least one
SessionFacade).
best
regards,
Jinzhai
