Unfortunately, we don't have the resources to maintain this project anymore.

This means:

• this GitHub repository is currently unmaintained
• the corresponding website https://www.artifact-listener.org/ will not be maintained either:
  • https certificate may expire as soon as 2022/05/18
  • hosting server may be shut down at any time (before or after 2022/05/18)

If anyone wishes to host the service, you can get in touch with us by creating an issue on the project.

Architecture

Artifact Listener is a Spring based application using JavaConfig.

It uses:

• Hibernate, QueryDSL and Hibernate Search for persistence
• Wicket, wiQuery, jQuery and jQuery UI for the presentation layer
• a PostgreSQL database

How to start

Using Eclipse and m2eclipse, just clone the repository in Eclipse.

Start Postgres

Native PostgreSQL

You need to create a PostgreSQL database called maven_artifact_notifier:

createuser -U postgres maven_artifact_notifier
createdb -U postgres -O maven_artifact_notifier maven_artifact_notifier
psql -U postgres -c "alter user maven_artifact_notifier with password 'maven_artifact_notifier';"

Docker

To run PostgreSQL in a docker container, run the included docker/postgres-start.sh. Shut it down with postgres-stop.sh. These commands assume you have Docker installed on your development machine and that docker is on your path. The docker container exposes the default Postgres port of 5432, so that port must not be in use unless you modify the startup script to expose a different port.

Initialize Artifact Listener Database

• Run eclipse/processor all.launch
• Ensure that target/generated-sources/apt is a source folder in your eclipse project; if not please add it manually (source detection depends on your m2e eclipse installed plugins and options)
• Create /data/services/maven-artifact-notifier/ folder with application write access; this folder is used for lucene's index storage (can be configured via data.path in configuration.properties)
• Run MavenArtifactNotifierInitFromExcelMain from the init module and you should be all set.

Run Artifact Listener

Native Tomcat

Deploy the webapp (maven-artifact-notifier-webapp/target/maven-artifact-notifier.war) in your container of choice - we use Tomcat 7 embedded in WST.

You can override default configuration (configuration.properties) by creating a /etc/maven-artifact-notifier/configuration.properties file.

You may also override log4j configuration with a /etc/maven-artifact-notifier/log4j.properties file.

Docker

Build the project (mvn clean package) and configure the application for local testing with Docker by modifying docker/configuration-docker.properties if required. You can run it with Tomcat in a Docker container using docker/tomcat-start.sh, which mounts the WAR file into Tomcat's webapps directory so you can run development builds in place. Stop it with docker/tomcat-stop.sh. The docker container exposes Tomcat's default port of 8080, so that port must not be in use unless you modify the startup script to expose a different port.

Artifact listener should now be available at http://localhost:8080/maven-artifact-notifier. Default login/password is [email protected]/admin.
