Groovy Code to attach a xml file to the request

Hi all
I have a directory of xml files that I need to attach as attachments to a request
and submit one at a time.


following is the last thing I have tried

def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context )
def holder2 = groovyUtils.getXmlHolder( "documentSubmissionInbound#Request" ) // Get Request body
// get xml files
new File("C://HieGateway_soap//data" ).eachFile{file ->
if(file.name.endsWith(".xml" )){

// clear existing attachments
for( a in holder2.attachments ) {
holder2.removeAttachment( a )
}
holder2.attachFile(file.name,true) // errors here
holder2.contentType = "application/octet-stream"
holder2.setPart( file )
}
}


I will have over 200 of these files so I really dont want to manually add each one at a time
Can u give me advice on what i have wrong if and how this can be done ect
Thanks in advance for your help

    Hi,

    As an FYI SmartBear support does not support custom groovy solutions.

    You should add a RequestFilter.filterRequest event handler and use the following code as an example:


    // clear existing attachments
    for( a in request.getAttachments() ) {
    request.removeAttachment(a)
    }

    // get  files and attach
    new File("C:\\temp\\Test Requirements" ).eachFile{file ->
    if(file.name.endsWith(".html" )){
    request.attachFile(file,false)
    }
    }


    This will clear existing attachments and add new attachments in the request.

    Please see the API documentation and event handler documentation.
