Java library for Bazaar

basic BazaarClient use

Asked by Jesse Greenslade

Are there any examples of the use of this class?

I'm trying to run basic commands on my local machine,
Say i have strings with the paths of my local branch and the source location, how do I check that these locations are actually bzr repositories? what if the source repo needs a password? Is there a way to get a list of commits since my last pull? etc...

I'm messing around with the library now, but I'd really like to see some good read-me's on this.

Should I start a doc to show the commands i figure out? this could speed up the learning curve considerably.

cheers,
Jesse

Hi Jesse,

If there are missing Javadocs, please file a bug ;-)

To know if a path is a branch, there are some utilities in the utils/BazaarUtilities class to find a branch (it search upwards for a .bzr directory), also you could use the client to do that, e.g: using IBazaarClient.info

The API is quite similar to the command line interface, e.g:
 - to get the logs: IBazaarClient.log
 - to commit: IBazaarClient.commit
 - to revert the changes: IBazaarClient.revert
 - to push the changes: IBazaarClient.push
etc...

Hope this help.

Let me know if you have other questions.

Regards,

Hi,
Apologize the delay, I completely missed the request for more info.

In order to get the javadocs added, you could just link the source with jar in: Project Properties --> Java Build Path --> Libraries. expand the bzr-java-lib entry and edit "Source attachments"

The Java version of: "bzr version-info --include-history", is something like:

IBazaarClient.versionInfo(new BranchLocation("path/or/url/to/branch"), IVersionInfoOptions.INCLUDE_HISTORY)

Regards,

Can you help with this problem?
