Is there an example of how to commit a file and checkout a revision of a file using jgit anywhere?

I managed to checkout a file. Now I have to figure out how to commit a file.

This is the code I used for checkout. It's just a test and probably not the best way of doing it...


repo = new Repository(new File(gitFolder()));

public void checkout(String file, String toDir) throws IOException {
				
	RevWalk rw = new RevWalk(repo);
	ObjectId objHead = repo.resolve("HEAD");				
        RevCommit commitHead = rw.parseCommit(objHead);        		        	    
        
        Tree tree = repo.mapTree(commitHead.getTree());        
        TreeEntry fileTreeEntry = getFile(file.split("/"), 0, tree);
                
        ObjectLoader loader = repo.openBlob(fileTreeEntry.getId());
                        
        // Write content
        byte[] bytes = loader.getBytes();        
        File outFile = new File(toDir + "/" + fileTreeEntry.getName());
                
        FileChannel channel = new FileOutputStream(outFile).getChannel();        
	ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes);
	channel.write(buffer);	
	channel.close();	
}
	
private TreeEntry getFile(String[] path, int pathPos, Tree tree) throws IOException {
	if (path.length == 0 && pathPos > path.length) { return null; }
		
	boolean isFile = path.length == pathPos + 1;
				
	for(TreeEntry entry : tree.members()) {
		if (path[pathPos].equals(entry.getName())) {
			if (isFile) { 
				return entry; 
			} else {					
				return getFile(path, ++pathPos, repo.mapTree(entry.getId()));
			}
		}			
	}		
	return null;								
}

I managed to commit a file using this code.
(With help from : https://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git/2009/2/4/4899784/thre ad )

public void commit(String file, PersonIdent person, String commitMessage) throws IOException {	
		// Example source: https://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git/2009/2/4/4899784/thread
		
		Ref oldHEAD = repo.getAllRefs().get(Constants.HEAD);
		
		GitIndex index = new GitIndex(repo);				
		index.add(new File(workingDirectory), new File(workingDirectory + "/" + file));		
		index.write();

		ObjectId objectId = index.writeTree();

		Tree tree = repo.mapTree(objectId);

		final Commit commit = new Commit(repo);				
		commit.setAuthor(person);
		commit.setCommitter(person);
		commit.setMessage(commitMessage);
		commit.setTree(tree);
		commit.setParentIds(new ObjectId[] { oldHEAD.getObjectId() });		
		commit.commit();

		ObjectWriter writer = new ObjectWriter(repo);

		commit.setCommitId(writer.writeCommit(commit));

		final RefUpdate ru = repo.updateRef(Constants.HEAD);
		ru.setNewObjectId(commit.getCommitId());
		ru.setRefLogMessage(commitMessage, false);

		if (oldHEAD != null) {
			// commit has parents
			ru.setExpectedOldObjectId(oldHEAD.getObjectId());

		} else {
			// commit has no parents
		}
					
		ru.update();
	}

Thanks a lot for posting this. It's really hard to find any examples of JGit code!

Thanks a lot for the code... I needed some version control system based on java for a cms project. I have modified this source a little bit, but I'm not sure, if I got it the right way. I needed the whole path to be created when checking out so the part:

File outFile = new File(toDir + "/" + fileTreeEntry.getName());


became:

File outFile = new File(toDir + "/" + file);
outFile.getParentFile().mkdirs();


Also I needed to the ability to check out a specific revision (not only the last one), so I made up the following:

	public void checkout(final String file, final String toDir, final Integer commitTime) throws IOException {
		Repository repo = new Repository(this.frepo);

		RevWalk rw = new RevWalk(repo);
		ObjectId objHead = repo.resolve("HEAD");
		rw.markStart(rw.parseCommit(objHead));

		rw.setTreeFilter(AndTreeFilter.create(PathFilter.create(file), TreeFilter.ANY_DIFF));

		for (RevCommit c : rw) {
			if (c.getCommitTime() == commitTime) {
				Tree tree = repo.mapTree(c.getTree());
				TreeEntry fileTreeEntry = this.getFile(file.split("/"), 0, tree, repo);

				ObjectLoader loader = repo.openBlob(fileTreeEntry.getId());

				// Write content
				byte[] bytes = loader.getBytes();
				File outFile = new File(toDir + "/" + file);

				outFile.getParentFile().mkdirs();

				FileChannel channel = new FileOutputStream(outFile).getChannel();
				ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes);
				channel.write(buffer);
				channel.close();
			}
		}
	}


Is there a better way to do it? And another question, eclipse marks GitIndex as deprecated. What else should be used instead?

Thanks in advance!

This will aid you well:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/JGit/User_Guide#API
There are good example codes in the so called Porcelain API implementation (eg. CommitCommand)
