Using the SDK

0
Mike Sava (6●1●1) | asked Feb 22 '12, 1:07 p.m.
I would like to programmatically update the User profile. After downloading the SDK for version 3.0.1 I couldn't find any documentation on how to connect and use the SDK outside of eclipse.

The first question is: Can you update the user information with an API (SDK or REST/SOAP)? If so, what's the mechanism?

Thanks.

Yes, that is there for some time now, it addresses some use cases. I wasn't sure about yours.


Looks like this feature will do the work for the default license type configuration

Sam, unfortunately, the com.ibm.team.repository.common.IContributor methods to create a new user account don't pick up the Default license type as set in the JTS license administrator, so this assignment will need to made another way.

In addition this overview on extending: https://jazz.net/library/article/784
and this workshop https://jazz.net/library/content/articles/rtc/3.0.1/extensions-workshop/ should get you started.

The workshop works best for me, setting up the environment.

thx.. it might be simpler also.. it seems the JTS has support for a 'default' license type for new user creates/imports..
(last item in the Jts Admin, License Admin page

If you SHIFT-ALT-F1 (Plugin Spy) on the contributor editor in an Eclipse that has the SDK deployed, you can look at the code. In package com.ibm.team.process.internal.ide.ui.editors.contributor.ContributorEditor you will find 


		// Apply license changes

		LicenseAdminLibrary licenseAdminLibrary = new LicenseAdminLibrary(repository);

		IProgressMonitor licenseMonitor = new SubProgressMonitor(monitor, context.fModifiedLicenses.size() * 1000);

		IContributorLicenseType[] availableLicenseTypes = context.fAvailableLicenseTypes;

		List<IContributorLicenseType> licensesToAdd = new ArrayList<IContributorLicenseType>();

		for (int i = 0; i < availableLicenseTypes.length; i++) {

			IContributorLicenseType license = availableLicenseTypes[i];

			Boolean value = (Boolean) context.fModifiedLicenses.get(license);

			if (Boolean.TRUE.equals(value)) {

				//just put it in the list and process it later so that all of 

				//the removes are done before any add

				licensesToAdd.add(license);

				licensesChanged = true;

			} else if (Boolean.FALSE.equals(value)) {

				licenseAdminLibrary.unassignLicense(contributor, license.getId(), new SubProgressMonitor(licenseMonitor, 1000));

				licensesChanged = true;

				context.fModifiedLicenses.put(license, null);

			} else {

				licenseMonitor.worked(1000);

				context.fModifiedLicenses.put(license, null);

			}

		}		

		//now do the adds

Not sure that is available in the Plain Java Client Libraries, but you could try.
I have not tried this myself. I was just spying so to speak.

the ILicenseClient and ILicenseService classes allow you to CHECK the contributor license type.. but not SET it..

I work with Don..

We are trying to automate user addition to RTC from our HR feed/ldap system. and assign a Stakeholder license.

so, if there is some other way to help with this we're all ears

The SDK contains ILicenseService.class and the Plain Java Client Library has ILicenseClient.class. The SDK also contains some unit tests around it. The ILicenseClient.class is doumented in the Plain Java Client Library Javadoc. I would assume that you can manage licenses with the client libraries, especially since the Eclipse Client allows to do it.

The rest service is internal and I would avoid trying to use it.
