    Example of checkout->modify->checkin

    jasonw1

      Can you give an example of how to checkin; checkout; and add documents to/from SVN through shotoku? I have read the documentation, but it is very limited. I am trying to figure out where shotoku fits within a web application and how to interface with it to get files in and out of svn.

      What I do know (which is very limited even outisde of the shotoku topic :))

      1) Shotoku sets on top of SVN and within an AS container.
      2) well 1) pretty much covers what I know ;)

      I looked at the UML diagrams, but do not see methods for checkin/checkout (Maybe I need to look harder). Is there any installaiton documentation? I see the configuration doucmentation, but nothing on droping a war/ear/jar.

      Seems like a great product but there isn't alot of documentation. I think you guys need to draw straws to see who has to stop developing and write some documentation on product that seems to be well designed and thought through.

      Thanks

          after putting down my crack pipe and changing my thought process from Visual Source Safe to cvs and svn I just remembered that cvs does not have checkin and checkout. It would be nice though to have a complete example of how to install, setup, retrieve and commit changes to resources stored in svn through shotoku.

            Hello,
            I've put a simple example of usage here:
            http://labs.jboss.com/wiki/BasicShotokuFunctions (at the bottom). I hope it clarifies things a bit :)

            For installation, you need to (provided you have downloaded the ear)
            1. configure 00shotoku.ear/shotoku-base.ejb3/shotoku.properties (you specify there where your WC is, among other things)
            2. drop it to the "deploy" directory
            And of course have the AS configured :).

            If you have any further problems, please write.

            ps When it comes to writing documentation, suddenly nobody has any straws ;)
