Rest API to get list of artifacts from Nexus OSS 3.x Repository
I have created a raw repository in Nexus 3.x and I'm able to upload artifacts to the same. Now I want get the list of all artifacts residing inside that repo using Rest API. Any help is appreciated.
Answer
in the current Nexus3.14.0-04 the REST API has become final (no longer "beta") and the curl you need is:
curl -X GET "http://localhost:8081/service/rest/v1/components?repository=central" -H "accept: application/json"
this will return each "component" (group, name, version) with all its assets = each individual file (pom, sha1, md5, jar) who constitue the component
The result is a JSON string.
If instead you want to perform a COMPONENTS search - based on a groupId, artifactId - you can use this curl:
curl -X GET "http://localhost:8081/service/rest/v1/search?repository=central&format=maven2&maven.groupId=com.fasterxml.jackson.core&maven.artifactId=jackson-core&maven.extension=jar" -H "accept: application/json"
this returns COMPONENTS with child ASSETS.
The variant to retrieve only the ASSETS, without grouping them by COMPONENT, is GET /service/rest/v1/search/assets?repository=central&format=maven2&maven.groupId=com.fasterxml.jackson.core&maven.artifactId=jackson-core&maven.extension=jar
