Fetching artifacts from a Stream
Hi,
I've developed an Eclipse plug-in that feeds Eclipse workspace resources into a repository and annotates them with authorship information at the line level. I do this using annotation blocks. I've already developed a CVS extractor to get authorship information from a team's CVS repository, but now I'm trying to build an additional extractor for the Jazz SCM. Basically, I'm trying to use the same resources model to get the corresponding artifacts from a Jazz stream and then annotate them with authorship information. I've figured out how to connect to the team repository and get the components from the repository, but I'm unsure of how to proceed from here. I think I'm on the right track because each component, according to the quick reference guide, has "their own tree of folders and files, and their own change history." For now, I just want the most up-to-date copy of a project from the stream. I'm not so much interested in individual users' repository workspaces. And if I can reuse annotation blocks to get authorship information, that would be great. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks! Best, Erik |

Once you have the file you can call FileSystemCore.getFileSystemManager (workspaceConnection.teamRepository()).getFileSystemView (workspaceConnection).getBlame(). - Dmitry |

Dmitry,
Thank you for the help. I'm still confused on how I get an object that implements IFlowNodeConnection so I can get an IConfiguration. I have an instance of IWorkspaceManager and it looks like I can get a WorkspaceConnection from the manager by calling getWorkspaceConnection(..), but I don't know how to get the Workspace or WorkspaceHandle I need.

If so then you can do: IShareable s = (IShareable)IFile.getAdapter(IShareable.class); ISharingDescriptor sd = s.getShare().getSharingDescriptor(); IWorkspaceHandle ws = (IWorkspaceHandle)sd.getConnectionHandle(); IComponent c = sd.getComponent(); IFileItemHandle fi = (IFileItemHandle)s.getVersionable(); To be absolutely correct you'd need to check that getShare() didn't return null (it will if the file is not shared with jazz) and that sd.getConnectionHandle() in fact returns an IWorkspaceHandle (it could return an IBaselineHandle instead) and that s.getVersionable() returns an IFileItemhandle (it could return an IFolderHandle or null). - Dmitry |

What do you have? I had actually tried to get the components by calling the WorkspaceManager's findComponents method. Erik |

To summarize, I want to feed my SCM extractor IResources from the Eclipse workspace, match the IResources that are files to their corresponding resources or files in the Stream, and get Annotations for each file so I can get authorship info all the way down to the line level. I already know the line ranges for each class and method that I want to collect authorship for. Ideally I'd like to use a map to store an Eclispe IResource as a key and the corresponding SCM element as a value so I can translate between the two. This is how I've implemented the CVS extractor - I store the IResource as a key and the corresponding ICVSResource as the value. Hope that clarifies a bit. Thanks again! |

Looks like I have a working version of this, although I need to do some more testing to make sure :)
Once I got a list of change set handles for each line in the file by calling the getBlame() method, I looked up each change set in the Repository item manager and got the corresponding contributor and userID, and thus authorship for each line in the file. Thanks again. |
