Is there a Java-API for the global configuration domain available?

Philipp Wohlgemuth (28●2●4) | asked Oct 26 '15, 12:28 a.m.
Is there a Java-API for the global configuration domain already available e.g. in a 6.0.1 milestone release? We would like to use it to create PAs and TAs as well as users and GC-components and -streams. This is for an automatic (re-)creation of a test-environment e.g. after updating to a new milestone release.

Thanks and regards

Philipp

 UPDATE for 6.0.4: We do now have a documented GC API to extend the OSLC Configuration Management API. See the gc/doc/scenarios page below your Jazz installation - for example, on a jazz.net sandbox, look at https://jazz.net/sandbox01-gc/doc/scenarios.

Philipp,

There is no public Java API available yet for the Global Configuration Manager. However, the tool does implement most of the OSLC Configuration Management draft specification.

The OSLC service provider catalog in GCM 6.0.1 includes an entry for a global component creation factory. Once you have created or found a component, you can create streams from it as described in section 6 of OSLC Configuration Management - Configuration Resources.

Eclipse Project Lyo provides a Java SDK to help you write OSLC-enabled applications. While Lyo does not yet provide an SDK specific to clients wanting to use global configurations, it does provide all the infrastructure you would need to create components and streams using the REST APIs described in the Configuration Management draft specification.

Nick Crossley.

Thanks for the details above (we already know the above stated sources --> most of these workshops are about creating or modifying CM / RM artifacts). But we miss some examples specifically for creation of a GC component and GC configurations as well as for querying and setting custom attributes.

Do you have any code snippets which could help us for ramping us up.

Do you have in the meantime further information or experience with the task.
It is really time consuming and even really complicated to create a large global configuration of many of global configurations components containing many of different configurations.

Here a tool which give us a (semi-) automatic support would be desirable.
