How can I programmatically check-out an item for edit in TFS?

问题

I'm working on a utility processing files being under source control using TFS 2010.

If an item is not yet checked-out for edit, I'm getting an exception, what is definitely predictable because file is in read-only mode.

What ways exist to check-out a file?

P.S. I want something for programmatic rather then Process.Start("tf.exe", "..."); if that's applicable.

回答1:

Some of the other approaches mentioned here only work for certain versions of TFS or make use of obsolete methods. If you are receiving a 404, the approach you are using is probably not compatible with your server version.

This approach works on 2005, 2008, and 2010. I don't use TFS any longer, so I haven't tested 2013.

var workspaceInfo = Workstation.Current.GetLocalWorkspaceInfo(fileName);
using (var server = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(workspaceInfo.ServerUri))
{
    var workspace = workspaceInfo.GetWorkspace(server);    
    workspace.PendEdit(fileName);
}

private const string tfsServer = @"http://tfsserver.org:8080/tfs";

public void CheckOutFromTFS(string fileName)
{
    using (TfsTeamProjectCollection pc = TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(new Uri(tfsServer)))        
    {
        if (pc != null)
        {
            WorkspaceInfo workspaceInfo = Workstation.Current.GetLocalWorkspaceInfo(fileName);
            if (null != workspaceInfo)
            {                   
                Workspace workspace = workspaceInfo.GetWorkspace(pc);
                workspace.PendEdit(fileName);
            }
        }
    }
    FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(fileName);
}

Note that Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client.TeamFoundationServerFactory is obsolete: The TeamFoundationServer class is obsolete. Use the TeamFoundationProjectCollection or TfsConfigurationServer classes to talk to a 2010 Team Foundation Server. In order to talk to a 2005 or 2008 Team Foundation Server use the TeamFoundationProjectCollection class. The corresponding factory class for that is the TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.

You can use Team Foundation Version Control client API. The method is PendEdit()

workspace.PendEdit(fileName);

Checkout detailed example on MSDN http://blogs.msdn.com/b/buckh/archive/2006/03/15/552288.aspx

First get the workspace

var tfs = new TeamFoundationServer("http://server:8080/tfs/collection");
var version = (VersionControlServer)tfs.GetService(typeof(VersionControlServer));
var workspace = version.GetWorkspace("WORKSPACE-NAME", version.AuthorizedUser);

With the workspace you can checkout the file

workspace.PendEdit(fileName);

回答5:

var registerdCollection = RegisteredTfsConnections.GetProjectCollections().First();
var projectCollection = TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(registerdCollection);
var versionControl = projectCollection.GetService<VersionControlServer>();

var workspaceInfo = Workstation.Current.GetLocalWorkspaceInfo(_fileName);
var server = new TeamFoundationServer(workspaceInfo.ServerUri.ToString());
var workspace = workspaceInfo.GetWorkspace(server);

workspace.PendEdit(fileName);

I have two approaches how to do that: simple and advanced.

1). Simple:

  #region Check Out
    public bool CheckOut(string path)
    {
        using (TfsTeamProjectCollection pc = TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(new Uri(ConstTfsServerUri)))
        {
            if (pc == null) return false;

            WorkspaceInfo workspaceInfo = Workstation.Current.GetLocalWorkspaceInfo(path);
            Workspace workspace = workspaceInfo?.GetWorkspace(pc);
            return workspace?.PendEdit(path, RecursionType.Full) == 1;
        }
    }

    public async Task<bool> CheckoutAsync(string path)
    {
        return await Task.Run(() => CheckOut(path));
    }
    #endregion

2). Advanced (with receiving status):

    private static string GetOwnerDisplayName(PendingSet[] pending)
    {
        var result = pending.FirstOrDefault(pendingSet => pendingSet.Computer != Environment.MachineName) ?? pending[0];
        return result.OwnerDisplayName;
    }
    private string CheckoutFileInternal(string[] wsFiles, string folder = null)
    {
        try
        {

            var workspaceInfo = Workstation.Current.GetLocalWorkspaceInfo(folder);
            var server = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(workspaceInfo.ServerUri);
            var workspace = workspaceInfo.GetWorkspace(server);
            var request = new GetRequest(folder, RecursionType.Full, VersionSpec.Latest);
            GetStatus status = workspace.Get(request, GetOptions.None);
            int result = workspace.PendEdit(wsFiles, RecursionType.Full, null, LockLevel.None);
            if (result == wsFiles.Length)
            {
                //TODO: write info (succeed) to log here - messageText
                return null;
            }
            var pending = server.GetService<VersionControlServer>().QueryPendingSets(wsFiles, RecursionType.None, null, null);
            var messageText = "Failed to checkout !.";
            if (pending.Any())
            {
                messageText = string.Format("{0}\nFile is locked by {1}", messageText, GetOwnerDisplayName(pending));
            }

            //TODO: write error to log here - messageText
            return messageText;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            UIHelper.Instance.RunOnUiThread(() =>
            {
                MessageBox.Show(Application.Current.MainWindow, string.Format("Failed checking out TFS files : {0}", ex.Message), "Check-out from TFS",
                               MessageBoxButton.OK, MessageBoxImage.Error);
            });
            return null;
        }
    }

    public async Task<string> CheckoutFileInternalAsync(string[] wsFiles, string folder)
    {
        return await Task.Run(() => CheckoutFileInternal(wsFiles, folder));
    }
