Generic Model Plugin Reference

The Generic Model plugin provides a way to extend XL Deploy with new middleware support, without having to write Java code. Instead, using XL Deploy's flexible type system and the base CIs from the Generic Model plugin, new CIs can be defined by writing XML and providing scripts for functionality.

This document provides information that is specific to this version of the Generic plugin. For general information about the plugin, refer to Introduction to the XL Deploy Generic plugin.

Using the deployables and deployeds

Deployable vs. container table

The following table describes which deployable/container combinations are possible.

Deployable	Containers	Generated deployed
generic.File generic.Archive	overthere.HostContainer	generic.CopiedArtifact
any deployable	overthere.HostContainer	generic.ExecutedScript
any deployable	overthere.HostContainer	generic.ManualProcess
any folder deployable	overthere.HostContainer	generic.ExecutedFolder
any deployable	overthere.HostContainer	generic.ProcessedTemplate

Deployed actions table

The following table describes the effect a deployed has on its container.

Deployed	Create	Destroy	Modify
