Registering the report generator with the core component

A report generator instance have been create using the BasicHtmlReportGeneratorImpl.getInstance() method.

The next step is to register it with a core component instance to listen for events during execution of operations and produce a report when execution of an operation is complete:

    
  // create core component
  PineappleCore core = CoreFactory.createCore();
  
  // create the report generator with default settings
  ResultListener generator = BasicHtmlReportGeneratorImpl.getInstance();  

  // register the report generator
  core.addListener(generator); 

Invoke an operation to generate a report

The last step is to execute and operation and have the report generator create a report when the execution of the operation is completed:

  
  // get user.home
  String userHome = System.getProperty( "user.home" );
        
  // define default pineapple runtime directory
  File runtimeDirectory = new File( userHome, ".pineapple" ); 
         
  // define modules directory
  File modulesDirectory = new File( runtimeDirectory, "modules" ); 
        
  // setup parameters
  String operation = "run-tests";
  String environment =  "production-2-a"; 
  String module = "jee-platform-infrastructure-tests" ; 
    
  // execute operation
  Future<String> future;
  future = core.execute( operation, environment, modulesDirectory, module );

  // invoke get-method to block until execution is complete
  String result = future.get();

This instance of the core component will:

• Execute the operation named "run-tests"
• on the module located at ${user.home}/.pineapple/modules/jee-platform-infrastructure-tests
• for at model defined for the environment named "production-2-a".
• And create a report in the directory ${user.home}/.pineapple/reports/report-${TIMESTAMP}.

The method is asynchronous and will return a Future<String> object once the operation is added to the execution queue. To wait for the operation is finished, invoke the get() method on the Future object.
