CollabNet
Connector Framework
1.0
includes a number of important
enhancements.
Overview
CollabNet
Connector Framework 1.0 contains:
- The core CCF runtime responsible for shipping data from one system to another
system in the CCF Generic Artifact format.
- The CCF SDK for developers to write their own adaptors for external systems.
- The adaptor for CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise.
- Sample scenarios to demonstrate the capabilities of the CCF framework.
For detailed information about the CollabNet
Connector Framework's environment,
underlying technologies, examples and documentation, see the Getting Started page in the CCF project on openCollabNet.
Sample scenarios
The CCF SDK includes these preconfigured example integration scenarios:
- Bidirectional Mirroring Scenario: synchronize artifacts between two identical
CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise trackers in both directions
- Unidirectional Transformation Scenario: synchronize artifacts between two
CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise trackers in a single direction from the source
to the target system
- Combined Bidirectional Mirroring Scenario and Unidirectional Transformation
Scenario
- Flat File Import Scenario: import data from a CSV file to a CollabNet
SourceForge Enterprise tracker
- Flat File Export Scenario: export data from a CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise
tracker to a CSV file
- Generic Artifact Import Scenario: import a file that contains artifacts encoded
in the GenericArtifactXMLFormat
- Generic Artifact Export Scenario: store the artifacts contained in a SourceForge
tracker in a local file in the GenericArtifactXMLFormat
- Database Table Import Scenario: import data from a database table to a standard
CollabNet SourceForge Enterprise tracker
- Database Table Export Scenario: export data from a standard CollabNet
SourceForge Enterprise tracker to a database table
- Unidirectional Custom Reader Scenario: use the code skeleton provided to write
your own reader component
To start trying out the connector for one of these scenarios, see the Quick Start Guide.
