Using Archiva Web Services
Web services is a new feature for 1.2. Archiva exposes two types of services: administrative and search. A sample client
that shows how to access these services is provided in the source code. You can check out the module for the sample client at:
+----+
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/archiva/tags/archiva-1.2/archiva-modules/archiva-web/archiva-xmlrpc/archiva-xmlrpc-client/
+----+
The SampleClient class shows how to connect to and invoke the Archiva web services. To execute the sample client, edit
the following configuration in the archiva-xmlrpc-client module's pom.xml:
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<executable>java</executable>
<mainClass>org.apache.archiva.web.xmlrpc.client.SampleClient</mainClass>
<arguments>
<!--
URL: ex. http://127.0.0.1:9091/xmlrpc
USERNAME & PASSWORD: Archiva credentials
-->
<argument>http://127.0.0.1:9091/xmlrpc</argument>
<argument>admin</argument>
<argument>${password}</argument>
</arguments>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</project>
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
In the first \<argument\>, set the url of the Archiva instance you are running but make sure that you have </xmlrpc> appended
at the end. For example if your Archiva instance is running in localhost and port 8080, then set it to http://localhost:8080/archiva/xmlrpc.
The second \<argument\> corresponds to the username of the existing Archiva user that will be used to access the services while
the last \<argument\> is where you set the user's password.
After configuring the pom, you can now run the sample client by executing <<mvn exec:java>> in the command-line. You should be
able to see the list of managed and remote repositories, the list of database and repository consumers and more printed on the
command-line.
* Administration Service
In order for a user to be able to access the Administration services, the user must have a <<System Administrator>> role in Archiva.
The Administration Service exposes the following methods:
[[1]] Boolean executeRepositoryScanner( String repoId ) - triggers the repository scanner to scan the specified repository.
[[2]] Boolean executeDatabaseScanner() - triggers the database scanner to be executed.
[[3]] List\<String\> getAllDatabaseConsumers() - retrieves all the Archiva database consumers associated with the database scanning.
[[4]] Boolean configureDatabaseConsumer( String consumerId, boolean enable ) - enables or disables the specified database consumer.
[[5]] List\<String\> getAllRepositoryConsumers() - retrieves all the Archiva repository consumers associated with the repository scanning.
[[6]] Boolean configureRepositoryConsumer( String repoId, String consumerId, boolean enable ) - enables or disables the specified
repository consumer.
[[7]] List\<ManagedRepository\> getAllManagedRepositories() - retrieves all the managed repositories in Archiva.
[[8]] List\<RemoteRepository\> getAllRemoteRepositories() - retrieves all the remote repositories in Archiva.
[[9]] Boolean deleteArtifact( String repoId, String groupId, String artifactId, String version ) - deletes the specified artifact from
the repository.
* Search Service
To access the Search Service, the user must have at least a <<Repository Observer>> role.
The Search Service exposes the following methods:
[[1]] List\<Artifact\> quickSearch( String queryString ) - search for the specified term. This behaves just like Archiva's Quick Search
from the web app.
[[2]] List\<Artifact\> getArtifactByChecksum( String checksum ) - search for artifact(s) matching the specified checksum. This behaves like
the Find Artifact from the web app.
[[3]] List\<Artifact\> getArtifactVersions( String groupId, String artifactId ) - retrieves all available versions of the artifact.
[[4]] List\<Artifact\> getArtifactVersionsByDate( String groupId, String artifactId, String version, Date since ) - <not yet implemented>
[[5]] List\<Dependency\> getDependencies( String groupId, String artifactId, String version ) - retrieves all the dependencies of the specified
artifact. This is the equivalent of the Dependencies tab in the Artifact Browse.
[[6]] List\<Artifact\> getDependencyTree( String groupId, String artifactId, String version ) - <not yet implemented>
[[7]] List\<Artifact\> getDependees( String groupId, String artifactId, String version ) - retrieves all the artifacts with a
dependency on the specified artifact. This is the equivalent of the Used By tab in the Artifact Browse.
