CS documentation on settings scope on VariableResource

cgordon · 2 June 2017 20:06

Hey guys,

I am having issues tracking down documentation on settings the scope on a VariableResource… I found the powershell way

OctopusDeploy/OctopusDeploy-Api/blob/master/Octopus.Client/PowerShell/Variables/UpdateVariableInProject.ps1

cls
function UpdateVarInProject {
    Param (
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string] $UserApiKey,
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string] $OctopusUrl,
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string] $ProjectName,
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string] $VariableToModify,
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string] $VariableValue,
        [Parameter()][string] $EnvironmentScope,
        [Parameter()][string] $RoleScope,
        [Parameter()][string] $MachineScope,
        [Parameter()][string] $ActionScope
    )
    Process {
        Set-Location "C:\Program Files\Octopus Deploy\Tentacle"
        Add-Type -Path 'Newtonsoft.Json.dll'
        Add-Type -Path 'Octopus.Client.dll'
        $endpoint = New-Object Octopus.Client.OctopusServerEndpoint $OctopusUrl,$UserApiKey
        $repository = New-Object Octopus.Client.OctopusRepository $endpoint
        $project = $repository.Projects.FindByName($ProjectName)

This file has been truncated. show original

However getting

$newVariable.Scope.Add([Octopus.Platform.Model.ScopeField]::Environment, (New-Object Octopus.Platform.Model.ScopeValue "Environments-1"))

to translate is not working well.

In my code I am

            [Parameter(Mandatory = false, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = true)]
            public ScopeValue envScope { get; set; }

            VariableResource internalVar = new VariableResource(); 

                try
                {
                    if (internalVar == null)
                    {

                        internalVar.Name = Name;
                        internalVar.Value = Value;

                        if (envScope != null)
                    {
                        internalVar.Scope.Add([ScopeField]::Environment, envScope);
                    }

Any help would be great.

Oh… for someone else…
internalVar.Scope.Add(ScopeField.Environment, envScope)
