Possibilities to execute a groovy script with Hybris in java code (no hAC)

Question

I'm wondering if there is a way to execute a groovy script with Hybris. I know how groovy scripts are executed with the Hybris Administration Console (hAC), but I need a solution to execute such a script from java code. Preferably with the Patching Framework's @SystemSetup but not necessary. (https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_COMMERCE/d0224eca81e249cb821f2cdf45a82ace/5db22427a1d541669bc4d12793a7b672.html?locale=en-US)

I'm looking for a method similar to Impex import (eg. from core extension):

@SystemSetup(extension = SampleCoreConstants.EXTENSIONNAME)
public class CoreSystemSetup extends AbstractSystemSetup {

public static final String IMPORT_ACCESS_RIGHTS = "accessRights";

@SystemSetup(type = Type.ESSENTIAL, process = Process.ALL)
public void createEssentialData(final SystemSetupContext context)
{
    importImpexFile(context, "/samplecore/import/common/file-name.impex");
}

@Override
@SystemSetupParameterMethod
public List<SystemSetupParameter> getInitializationOptions()
{
    final List<SystemSetupParameter> params = new ArrayList<>();

    params.add(createBooleanSystemSetupParameter(IMPORT_ACCESS_RIGHTS, "Import Users & Groups", true));

    return params;
}

Here the same with SQL: https://www.stackextend.com/hybris/run-native-sql-query-hybris/

So anyone who can help me out with a solution (or with a clear answer if this is possible or not) are welcome.

Thanks!

It's possible to run groovy in your code. Even in SystemSetup.

You can use the hybris service (spring bean) de.hybris.platform.scripting.engine.ScriptingLanguagesService that's available in the processing extension

In the code, this could be something like

final ClassPathResource resource = new ClassPathResource("location.groovy");
final ResourceScriptContent content = new ResourceScriptContent(resource);

ScriptExecutable groovyScript = scriptingLanguagesService.getExecutableByContent(content);

ScriptExecutionResult result = groovyScript.execute();

This will execute a script on the given location in your classpath. If you don't have your groovy in a file in your classpath, there are other Content types possible. For example: SimpleScriptContent
