Z ChatOps server can generate a driven URL by the sitemap configuration and the
normalized field in the configuration file, and then notify the client to switch page to the new URL
that is found by the sitemap configuration.
About this task
In Z ChatOps, sitemap is a mapping relationship between keywords of Z ChatOps and page URLs of
the integrating web app.
Procedure
-
Prepare the sitemap configuration.
Edit the
sitemap.yaml file in the directory that you created in
5 in the following
format:
# Licensed material - Property of IBM
# © Copyright IBM Corporation 2023.
# This file controls one sitemap of the chat window server for IBM Z ChatOps
# Configure the urlSet
urlSet:
- url:
loc: https://your_host_name/lparDetail?lparName=${zos.lparName}
keywords:
- lpar/status/detail
description: lpar detail page
Fields of URLs:
- loc
- Specifies the target URL. You can use
${VALUE} to provide parameters for the
URL.
- keywords
- A string array to provide keywords.
- description
- The description of current URL item.
You can find the normalized fields in the
$ZCHATOPS_HOME/config/webChat/normalized-field.yaml
file.
- Add an event listener for the chat window dom. For
example,
chatwindow.addEventListener('webChatNotification', (data: any) => {
const eventData = data.detail;
if (eventData.type === 'page-switch') {
navigate(eventData.payload.path);
}
});
The event type is
'webChatNotification'The
parameter of the callback is a CustomEvent. For more information about CustomEvent, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CustomEvent.
If the data.detail.type === "page-switch", you can get the new URL with
data.detail.payload.path. Then you can use navigate or use
location.href = ‘new url’ to lunch new page.
navigate is a
function that can switch page of your integrating web app.
