Nexus 3 Configuration As Code

  • Tested against Nexus Repository Manager OSS 3.10.0-04
This project contains scripts and standards for configuration as code for Nexus. This allows Nexus configuration changes to be reviewed in pull requests and avoids the need of granting anybody admin access to Nexus.

Configuration as Code

repositories, blob stores, and content selectors.

Organization of this repository

  • functions/ - a directory of Nexus scripts meant to be uploaded to the [Nexus
Script API][nexus-script]. A script is what is called a "function" in this repository and will be referenced from now on as a function.
  • scripts/ - Local scripts designed to be run from automation or a local
machine to interact with Nexus.

Executing Configuration As Code

All configuration as code scripts are meant to be run via the [Nexus Script API][nexus-script]. [./scripts/upload_function.py][upload-fxn] has been provided to perform the following actions:

  • Upload functions to the Nexus Script API.
  • Delete functions from the Nexus Script API.
  • Execute functions available in the Nexus Script API. Option to submit data as
an argument to the function is also possible.

Examples:

# Delete all default repositories and blob stores in Nexus
./scripts/upload_function.py -rf ./functions/deleteAllRepositoriesAndBlobstores.groovy

Configure new repositories and blob stores

./scripts/upload_function.py -rf ./functions/repositoryConfiguration.groovy -d ./examples/repository.json

See additional USAGE for more examples and options.
