Retrieve the list of confs

[Garima Bathla <ga...@gmail.com>]

My requirement is to programmaticlly retrieve the list of confs for a given
module and revision.

e.g. Given a Module name = [XXX] revision=[1.0.0] and ivysettings.xml
already in place; what API I can use to retrieve the list of confs available
for this module, in any of the repositories those are listed in
ivysettings.xml.

Also please note that I need a Java API; ( Also at this point I am using
Apache Ivy standalone, not invoking Ivy via ant tasks).

Thanks,
Garima.

You could take a look at the implementation of the ivy:info ant task, which can retrieve the list of configurations from a module:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/ivy/core/trunk/src/java/org/apache/ivy/ant/IvyInfo.java

OK , the only way I figured it out was by digging the ivy code - :-) . Since
Ivy can be used as standalone tool - having Ivy JavaDoc around will be handy
( just a suggestion).

For your pleasure the solution is below:

           Ivy ivy = Ivy.newInstance();

            URL ivySettinsURL = new URL("path/to/ivy/settings/file);   //
You can also use ivy.configure(File IvySettingsFile) method.
            ivy.configure(ivySettinsURL);
            ivy.pushContext();
            ResolvedModuleRevision rmd =
ivy.findModule(ModuleRevisionId.newInstance(
                    "orgName", "ModuleName", "Revision"));
            Configuration[] con = rmd.getDescriptor().getConfigurations();

            String[] confs2 = rmd.getDescriptor().getConfigurationsNames();

Garima.
