You can set up the update repositories, also called p2 repositories, by creating proxy repositories. This setup allows your infrastructure team to centralize and test updates before making them available to all Talend Studio users.

Before you begin

The artifact repository has been installed, either Sonatype Nexus or JFrog Artifactory. For more information, see Installing and configuring an artifact repository for sharing external modules and software updates.

About this task

This procedure shows you how to set up the update repositories for Talend Studio feature packages and a Talend Studio monthly update by creating proxy repositories.

Procedure

  1. Set up the update repository for Talend Studio feature packages:
    1. If you are using Sonatype Nexus, create a proxy repository in a raw format.
    2. If you are using JFrog Artifactory, create a virtual repository in a generic or maven format.
    3. Name the new repository repo-base, for example.
    4. Link the new repository to the official repository for Talend Studio feature packages, https://update.talend.com/Studio/8/base in this example.
      Later, you can use http://<repo-server>/repo-base to configure the base URL in Talend Studio or the -Dtalend.studio.p2.base parameter in Continuous Integration, where <repo-server> is the IP address or the host name of your artifact repository server.
  2. Set up the update repository for a Talend Studio monthly update:
    1. If you are using Sonatype Nexus, create a proxy repository in a raw format.
    2. If you are using JFrog Artifactory, create a virtual repository in a generic or maven format.
    3. Name the new repository repo-update, for example.
    4. Link the new repository to the official repository for a Talend Studio monthly update, for example, https://update.talend.com/Studio/8/updates/R2022-09 for 8.0 R2022-09 Talend Studio monthly update or https://update.talend.com/Studio/8/updates/latest for the latest Talend Studio monthly update.
      Later, you can use http://<repo-server>/repo-update to configure the update URL in Talend Studio or the -Dtalend.studio.p2.update parameter in Continuous Integration, where <repo-server> is the IP address or the host name of your artifact repository server.

What to do next

Configure the base and update URLs in Talend Studio or in Continuous Integration.
