tycho to publish p2 site with a history of features for installation

问题


I would like to ask about how to preserve the history of available plugins for download with tycho.

Here's the scenario:

  1. I have a few versions of a feature (feature.1.0.0, feature.2.0.0, etc) being built with Eclipse "Build Site" feature.
  2. The metadata, content.jar and artifacts.jar were created from Eclipse, by reading the site.xml.
  3. Now I have maven tycho to automate the p2 repository creation.
  4. I saw how tycho generate the p2 repo with category.xml.
  5. But I don't understand how to include the history, because tycho (or actually the library called by tycho, internal.p2.director.Projector) does not like the history of features in category.xml.

When I ran mvn package:

How to build a production p2 site (with history of features) with tycho?

My package structure is based on this fabulous blog

Thanks!

I finally figured out...

And put everything into production...

  1. https://eclipse.org/package-drone/
  2. To install, https://wiki.eclipse.org/PackageDrone/Installation
  3. Now it's up and running. Create an user name you can login in other than admin.
  4. Login to create a channel, say the channel name is "my_payload"
  5. Within the channel, assign a deploy group and a deploy key
  6. (Most Important) The channel must have the following aspects:
    • OSGi
    • P2 Repository
    • P2 Unzip
    • Mime
    • Hasher
  7. (Must do before #8) Upload a category.xml

    <site>
        <description name="my update site" url="http://your-p2-repo/my_channel/">
         My update site
        </description>
        <category-def name="my company's extensions for you" label="my company extension"/>
    </site>
    
  8. Use the REST call to upload the tycho generated p2 repo zip.

  9. Notice that, when you query from "Install New Software" in your app, the category will consolidate a history of versions together. The p2 repo will generate the metadata for you.

Hope you get it going! I will write a blog at some point on the details!
