Providing credentials for secured/protected update urls [message #1859716] Fri, 23 June 2023 02:50 Go to next message

Hi all,

when p2 urls are used which are password protected e.g. inside JFrog artifactory, a "Login required" Dialog is displayed and credentials can be provided and everything is working smoothly.

My question is, if it is feasible to provide this credentials via arguments or programmatically e.g. via extension?

any hint or help is appreciated

thx

Likely these are stored in the secured preferences somewhere. If you install the org.eclipse.oomph.preferences feature, you can explore the entire preference structure via Oomph -> All Preferences using Edit... to open it in an editor. You'll see there is a "secure" node. Probably somewhere in there the user ID and password are stored. It should be possible to create a preference task to store that information into the secure preference store ahead of time. Note that via the advanced properties (filter) and changing Secure to false, you can review your actual password...

Great!
Quick and comprehensive anwser.
I was able to investigate the nodes! - Wonderful tooling.
No I need to spend some time in creating the variable tasks for the setup model.
Thx a lot Ed and enjoy the weekend!
