Extension API
Overview
FIXEdge Java functionality can be extended with custom modules if required. The new logic can be integrated via Spring configuration files. As a default extension point, use the conf/spring/custom-ext.xml configuration file. Add any custom Beans there.
The conf/spring/custom-ext.xml currently includes two Java Beans for extending Groovy rules with custom functionalities:
- Listing a bean with the customBLImports ID allows extending default imports for Groovy scripts:
<util:list id="customImports" value-type="java.lang.String"> <!--Example of import value--> <value>java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger</value> </util:list>
- Mapping a Bean with the customBLBeans ID allows adding custom Beans as variables to Groovy scripts:
<util:map id="customAdditionalProperties" key-type="java.lang.String"> <!--Example--> <!-- exampleBean now is accessible in Groovy scripts --> <entry key="exampleBean" value-ref="testBean"/> </util:map> <bean id="testBean" class="java.lang.Object"/>
