server.conf variables#

You can define variables in the server.conf file. Their value passes on to the trigger script or program as environment variables. To define these variables, you need to add a section called TriggerVariables to the server.conf file, which you can find in the server installation folder. The following example shows one way you can use this file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ServerConfigData>
  <Language>en</Language>
  <WorkingMode>UPWorkingMode</WorkingMode>
  <ServerType>ServerTypeAll</ServerType>
  
  <TriggerVariables>
    <TriggerVariable name="TRIGGERS_PATH" value="c:\triggers" />
  </TriggerVariables>

</ServerConfigData>

This sample defines a variable called TRIGGERS_PATH with the value c:\\triggers. For example, you can use this variable in the script field when you create a trigger:

cm trigger create before-checkin "code checker" "@TRIGGERS_PATH\stylecheck.bat"
