It aggregates functionalities of different repositories, e.g.: maven, npm, debian. It's possible to connect them separately in native way or together via unified Rest API - that provides e.g. searching functionality. 4 + 5 +**Extension Repository Connector - Bintray** - enables resolving and searching of artifacts from particular repo running on Bintray. 6 +Currently the extension allows to connect only maven repository (running on bintray). In the nearest future integration with npm repository is planned to be added. 7 + 8 +== Configuration == 9 + 10 +{{info}} 11 +Bintray is only SAAS software - you cannot download it and run on private server. The consequence is that URLs for connection are predefined and they do not need to be specified in configuration. 12 + * In Bintray terminology - different bintray instances (accounts) are called **:subject** and different repositories on bintray instance are called **:repo**. These two identifiers are enough to identify repository 13 + * Example: the "**jcenter**" (:repo) is a maven repository running on Bintray instance called "**bintray**" (:subject) 14 +{{/info}} 15 + 16 +=== Configuration in {{code}}xwiki.properties{{/code}} 17 + 18 +{{code language="properties"}}extension.repositories.bintray.maven=<privateBintrayMavenId>:<:subject>:<:repo>{{/code}} 19 + 20 +If configuration was provided before launching XWiki - restart is not needed after installation of the extension. 21 + 22 +=== Example - connection with **JCenter** === 23 + 24 +In {{code}}xwiki.properties{{/code}}: 25 + 26 +{{code language="properties"}}extension.repositories.bintray.maven=jCenter:bintray:jcenter{{/code}} 27 + 28 +== Usage == 29 + 30 +Typical use case of **Extension Repository Connector - Bintray** is to connect jCenter and to install general-purpose Java libraries (not necesarily XWiki components!) to be later used in e.g. groovy scripts. 31 +After enabling connection to Bintray repository - you can search its artifacts in Extension Manager. 32 + - Show installed count
