OpenIDM Integrator's Guide
Scripting Reference

The following example (included in the sync.json file) returns true if the employeeType is equal to external, otherwise returns false. This script can be useful during reconciliation to establish whether the source object should be a part of the reconciliation, or ignored.

"validTarget": {
   "type" : "text/javascript",
   "source": "target.employeeType == 'external'"
}
        

The following example (included in the sync.json file) sets the __PASSWORD__ attribute to defaultpwd when OpenIDM creates a target object.

"onCreate" : {
  "type" : "text/javascript",
  "source": "target.__PASSWORD__ = 'defaultpwd'"
}
        

The following example (included in the router.json file) shows a trigger to create Solaris home directories using a script. The script is located in a file, /path/to/openidm/script/createUnixHomeDir.js.

{
  "filters" : [ {
    "pattern" : "^system/solaris/account$",
    "methods" : [ "create" ],
    "onResponse" : {
      "type" : "text/javascript",
      "file" : "script/createUnixHomeDir.js"
    }
  } ]
}
