Release Lifecycle Management

Overview

This page describes how to use JFrog CLI with Release Lifecycle Management.

Note

Release Lifecycle Management is only available since Artifactory 7.63.2.

Syntax

When used with JFrog Release Lifecycle Management, JFrog CLI uses the following syntax:

$ jf command-name global-options command-options arguments

Creating a release bundle

The create command allows creating a release bundle using file specs. The file spec may be of one of the following creation sources:

Published build infos.
```
{
  "files": [
    {
      "build": "<build-name>/<build-number>",
      "includeDeps": "[true/false]",
      "project": "<project-key>"
    },
    ...
  ]
}
```
<build-number> is optional, latest build will be used if empty. includeDeps is optional, false by default. project is optional, default project will be used if empty.

Existing release bundles.

{
  "files": [
    {
      "bundle": "<bundle-name>/<bundle-version>",
      "project": "<project-key>"
    },
    ...
  ]
}

project is optional, default project will be used if empty.

A pattern of artifacts in Artifactory.

{
  "files": [
    {
      "pattern": "repo/path/*",
      "exclusions": ["excluded",...],
      "props": "key1=value1;key2=value2;key3=value3",
      "excludeArtifacts": "key1=value1;key2=value2;key3=value3",
      "recursive": "[true/false]"
    },
    ...
  ]
}

Only pattern is mandatory. recursive is true by default.

AQL query.

{
  "files": [
    {
      "aql": {
        "items.find": {
          "repo": "<repo>",
          "path": "<path>",
          "name": "<file>"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Only a single AQL query may be provided.

Exporting Release Bundle archive

JFrog Lifecycle Management supports distributing your Release Bundles to remote Edge nodes within an air-gapped environment. This use case is mainly intended for organizations that have two or more JFrog instances that have no network connection between them.

The following command allows exporting a Release Bundle as an archive to the filesystem that can be transferred to a different instance in an air-gapped environment.


Command-name	release-bundle-export
Abbreviation	rbe
Command arguments:
release bundle name	Name of the Release Bundle to export.
release bundle version	Version of the release bundle to export.
target pattern	The argument is optional and specifies the local file system target path.If the target path ends with a slash, the path is assumed to be a directory.For example, if you specify the target as "repo-name/a/b/", then "b" is assumed to be a directory into which files should be downloaded.If there is no terminal slash, the target path is assumed to be a file to which the downloaded file should be renamed.For example, if you specify the target as "a/b", the downloaded file is renamed to "b".
Command options:
`--project`	[Optional] Project key associated with the Release Bundle version.
`--server-id`	[Optional] Platform Server ID configured using the 'jf config' command.
mapping-pattern	[Optional] Specify a list of input regex mapping pairs that define where the queried artifact is located and where it should be placed after it is imported. Use this option if the path on the target is different than the source path.
mapping-target	[Optional] Specify a list of output regex mapping pairs that define where the queried artifact is located and where it should be placed after it is imported. Use this option if the path on the target is different than the source path.
split-count	[Optional] The maximum number of parts that can be concurrently uploaded per file during a multi-part upload. Set to 0 to disable multi-part upload.
min-split	[Optional] Minimum file size in KB to split into ranges when downloading. Set to -1 for no splits

Example

Export release bundle named "myApp" and version 1.0.0

jf rbe myApp 1.0.0

Example

Download to a specific location

jf rbe myApp 1.0.0 /user/mybundle/

Importing Release Bundle archive

Import a Release Bundle archive from a release bundle exported zip file.

Please note this functionality only works on Edge nodes within an air-gapped environment.


Command-name	release-bundle-import
Abbreviation	rbi
Command arguments:
path to archive	Path to the release bundle archive on the filesystem
Command options:
`--project`	[Optional] Project key associated with the Release Bundle version.
`--server-id`	[Optional] Platform Server ID configured using the 'jf config' command.

Example

Import a Release Bundle named "myExportedApp" and version 1.0.0

jf rbi ./myExportedApp.zip
