I’m trying to use the REST API provided by DeployIt (v3.9) to list all the packages available on a given project. Thus, I use the GET /repository/query service

So, I’m calling this service with the following URL:

http://[server]/deployit/repository/query?namePattern=my-app&type=udm.DeploymentPackage

Unfortunately, I don’t get anything (just an empty list).

If I remove the namePattern from my URL, then I get a long list of all applications (not only the only I'm interested in). So it appears that I don’t set correctly the namePattern attribute. In the documentation, they say:

a search pattern for the name. This is like the SQL "LIKE" pattern: the character '%' represents any string of zero or more characters, and the character '_' (underscore) represents any single character. Any literal use of these two characters must be escaped with a backslash ('\'). Consequently, any literal instance of a backslash must also be escaped, resulting in a double backslash ('\').

So I tried the following URL:

  • http://[server]/deployit/repository/query?type=udm.DeploymentPackage&namePattern=my-app : empty list
  • http://[server]/deployit/repository/query?type=udm.DeploymentPackage&namePattern=%my-app%: error 400
  • http://[server]/deployit/repository/query?type=udm.DeploymentPackage&namePattern=%25my-app%25 (trying to escape the % character): empty list
  • http://[server]/deployit/repository/query?type=udm.DeploymentPackage&namePattern=Applications/my-app/2.0.0 (with a real version): error, character ‘/’ not allowed.
  • http://[server]/deployit/repository/query?type=udm.DeploymentPackage&namePattern=2.0.0 : I get the list of all applications deployed with a version 2.0.0 (including my my-app), but that's not what I'm looking for (I want all versions available on DeployIt for my-app).

So, what is the correct URL to retrieve the list of deployed applications?

I've solved my problem. In fact, the namePattern only applies to the last part of the Application name, i.e. the version. Thus, I have to use the parent attribute to retrieve the list of my application:

http://[server]/deployit/repository/query?type=udm.DeploymentPackage&parent=Applications%2Fmy-app&resultsPerPage=-1
