Shelve-delete triggers

Use the shelve-delete trigger to create triggers that fire after users discard shelved files.

Example

Here is an example of a shelve-delete trigger that notifies reviewers that shelved files have been abandoned.

#!/bin/sh
# shelve3.sh - Send email to reviewers when files deleted from shelf
changelist=$1
workspace=$2
user=$3

mail -s "shelve3.sh: Shelf $changelist deleted" reviewers << EOM
   $user has deleted shelved changelist $changelist"
EOM

exit 0

To use the trigger, add the following line to your triggers table:

shelving3  shelve-delete //... "shelve3.sh %change% %client% %user%"

Whenever a user deletes files from the shelf, reviewers receive an email notification. A more realistic example might check an external (or internal) data source to verify that code review was complete complete before permitting the user to delete the shelved files.
