Configure shared session using Package SDK

Create the following POJO class DemoForSession that implements CloseableSessionObject.

package com.automationanywhere.botcommand.samples.commands.basic.GlobalSessionSampleProject;

import com.automationanywhere.toolchain.runtime.session.CloseableSessionObject;

import java.io.IOException;

public class DemoForSession implements CloseableSessionObject
{
    public void setClose(boolean close) {
        this.close = close;
    }

    boolean close=false;
    public String getDemo() {
        return demo;
    }

    public void setDemo(String demo) {
        this.demo = demo;
    }
    public DemoForSession(String demo){
        this.demo=demo;
    }
    String demo;

    @Override
    public boolean isClosed() {
        return close;
    }

    @Override
    public void close() throws IOException {

    }
}

@BotCommand

@CommandPkg(
		//Unique name inside a package and label to display.
		name = "GlobalSession", label = "Global session uppercase parent",
		node_label = "Shared session parent node label", description = "Shared session parent description", icon = "pkg.svg",
		
		//Return type information. return_type ensures only the right kind of variable is provided on the UI. 
		return_label = "Return the parent session",
		return_settings = {ReturnSettingsType.SESSION_TARGET},
		return_type = SESSION,
		return_required = true)

Create the GlobalSessionDemoUpperCaseParent object. The GlobalSessionDemoUpperCaseParent gets a lower case string input from the action's input, converts it to an upper case string and store the result in the SessionValue.

• Annotate the method with @Execute to execute the method during compilation.

  package com.automationanywhere.botcommand.samples.commands.basic.GlobalSessionSampleProject;
  
  import com.automationanywhere.botcommand.data.impl.SessionValue;
  import com.automationanywhere.commandsdk.annotations.*;
  import com.automationanywhere.commandsdk.annotations.rules.NotEmpty;

  //BotCommand makes a class eligible for being considered as an action.
  @BotCommand
  
  //CommandPks adds required information to be dispalable on GUI.
  @CommandPkg(
  		//Unique name inside a package and label to display.
  		name = "GlobalSession", label = "Global session uppercase parent",
  		node_label = "Shared session parent node label", description = "Shared session parent description", icon = "pkg.svg",
  		
  		//Return type information. return_type ensures only the right kind of variable is provided on the UI. 
  		return_label = "Return the parent session",
  		return_settings = {ReturnSettingsType.SESSION_TARGET},
  		return_type = SESSION,
  		return_required = true)
  public class GlobalSessionDemoForStringUpperCaseParent {
  	private static Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger(GlobalSessionDemoForStringUpperCaseParent.class);
  
  	//Identify the entry point for the action. Returns a SessionValue because the return_type is SESSION. 
  	@Execute
  	public SessionValue action(
  			//Idx 1 would be displayed first, with a text box for entering the value.
  			@Idx(index = "1", type = TEXT) 
  			//UI labels.
  			@Pkg(label = "Enter string in lower case")
  			//Ensure that a validation error is thrown when the value is null.
  			@NotEmpty 
  			String firstString) {
  		String result = firstString.toUpperCase();
  		DemoForSession demoForSession= new DemoForSession(result);
  		return SessionValue
  				.builder()
  				.withSessionObject(demoForSession)
  				.build();
  	}
  }

Create the GlobalSessionDemoUpperCaseChild object. The GlobalSessionDemoUpperCaseChild gets a lower case string input from the action's input, converts it to upper case and concatenates it with the SessionValue received from the parent bot.

		//Return type information. return_type ensures only the right kind of variable is provided on the UI.

public class GlobalSessionDemoUpperCaseChild {
	private static Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger(Uppercase.class);
	
	@Execute
	public Value<String> action(
			//Idx 1 would be displayed first, with a text box for entering the value.
			@Idx(index = "1", type = TEXT) 
			//UI labels.

			@Idx(index = "2", type = AttributeType.SESSION)
			@Pkg(label = "sharedSession", description = "sharedSession",
					default_value = "Default", default_value_type = DataType.SESSION)
			//Using the sessionObject annotation here as its a consumer class
					@SessionObject
					DemoForSession session) {

		//Business logic
		String result = sourceString.toUpperCase();
		logger.info("session: {}",session);
		return new StringValue(result+session.getDemo().toUpperCase());
	}
}

1. Enter a lower case string (For example: parentbot string)
2. Enter a name for the session. The parent bot returns the value to the Global session (For example: Global)
