Troubleshooting¶

Run into trouble with Cloud Scripting? Here are some helpful tips and specific suggestions for troubleshooting as follows:

• Log in to your Jelastic dashboard and open the link of the following type in a new browser tab.

  http://app.{HOSTER_URL}/console/

  Here, substitute {HOSTER_URL} with the platform domain of your hosting provider (see the last column of the table within the Hosters Info page).

• In the opened browser tab, you will see the Cloud Scripting execution log.

Below, you can find some samples of editing custom information to the log:

• outputting a single placeholder value

type: update
name: LogTest

onInstall:
  log:
    - Hello
    - ${user.email}

{
  "type": "update",
  "name": "LogTest",
  "onInstall": {
    "log": [
      "Hello",
      "${user.email}"
    ]
  }
}

• outputting all the placeholders

type: update
name: LogTest

onInstall:
  log: ${placeholders}

{
  "type": "update",
  "name": "LogTest",
  "onInstall": {
    "log": "${placeholders}"
  }
}

All dynamic placeholders in ${placeholders} value are updated immediately after any action. Also placeholders will be updated automatically before displaying ${placeholders} value into console.

• outputting from a script

type: update
name: LogTest

onInstall:
  script:
    type: js
    script: "http://example.com/script.js"

actions:
  - myaction:
      log: ${this.message}

{
  "type": "update",
  "name": "LogTest",
  "onInstall": {
    "script": {
      "type": "js",
      "script": "http://example.com/script.js"
    }
  },
  "actions": [
    {
      "myaction": {
        "log": "${this.message}"
      }
    }
  ]
}

script.js body:

var message = 'Hello';

return { 
    result: 0, 
    onAfterReturn: {
        call: [{
            action: 'myaction', 
            params: {
                message: message
            } 
        }, {
            action: 'myaction',
            params: {
                message: 'World !'
            }
        }] 
    } 
};
