Problem converting macro from Velocity to Groovy: No signature of method is applicable for argument types

Help / Discuss
1

I have a working Velocity macro that copies a page from one location to another that I would like to convert to Groovy so that I can add some features that are easier to implement in Groovy. The problem is that I am getting an error when I run the Groovy version:

No signature of method: org.xwiki.refactoring.job.CopyRequest.setAutoRedirect() is applicable for argument types: (Boolean) values: [false]

I don’t have much experience with Groovy, so I feel like I must be missing something simple.

Here is the original, working Velocity script:

#if("$!request.src" != '' && "$request.dst" != '')
  #set ($_ = response.setContentType('text/plain'))
  #set ($srcRef = $services.model.resolveDocument($!request.src))
  #set ($dstRef = $services.model.resolveDocument($!request.dst))
  #set ($copyAsRequest = $services.refactoring.requestFactory.createCopyAsRequest($srcRef, $dstRef))
  #set ($_ = $copyAsRequest.setAutoRedirect(false))
  #set ($_ = $copyAsRequest.setUpdateLinks(false))
  #set ($success = false)
  #set ($copyAsJob = $services.refactoring.copyAs($copyAsRequest))
  #try
    $copyAsJob.join()
    #set ($copyAsJobStatus = $services.job.getJobStatus($copyAsJob.request.id))
    #set ($success = !$copyAsJobStatus.logTail.hasLogLevel('ERROR'))
  #end
  #if ($success)
    $response.writer.write('OK')
    $xcontext.setFinished(true)
  #else
    $response.writer.write('FAILED')
    $xcontext.setFinished(true)
  #end
#end

Here is the Groovy script that results in the error (kept as similar to the Velocity script as possible just to get it working):

if (request.src && request.dst) {
  response.setContentType('text/plain');
  def srcRef = services.model.resolveDocument(request.src);
  def dstRef = services.model.resolveDocument(request.dst);
  def copyAsRequest = services.refactoring.requestFactory.createCopyAsRequest(srcRef, dstRef);
  copyAsRequest.setAutoRedirect(false);
  copyAsRequest.setUpdateLinks(false);
  def success = false;
  def copyAsJob = services.refactoring.copyAs(copyAsRequest);
  try {
    copyAsJob.join();
    def copyAsJobStatus = services.job.getJobStatus(copyAsJob.request.id);
    success = copyAsJobStatus.logTail.hasLogLevel('ERROR');
  } catch(Exception ex) {
  }
  if (success) {
    response.getWriter().write('OK');
    xcontext.setFinished(true);
  } else {
    response.getWriter().write('ERROR');
    xcontext.setFinished(true);
  }
}

I have tried adding the following import lines (one at a time), but they didn’t help:

import org.xwiki.refactoring.job.CopyRequest
import org.xwiki.refactoring.job.*

If I remove these two method calls, the Groovy script will run and copy the page without error:

  copyAsRequest.setAutoRedirect(false);
  copyAsRequest.setUpdateLinks(false);

Am I missing an import or is there something else wrong with my code? Why would the Velocity script accept a boolean parameter for the setAutoRedirect method, but Groovy can’t find an implementation of the method with a boolean parameter?
