Introduction
This example demonstrates how to mirror exclusively metadata or artifact repositories using the repository mirror application available in the equinox p2 tools.
Getting the Mirroring Tools
Get the p2 agent from the provisioning section of: Equinox Stable Build: 3.4RC3.
Selective Mirroring Example
Using the command line run the Admin tool with the args you have below (e.g. eclipse.exe -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tools.MirrorApplication -metadatasource ...).
This example performs the mirroring of an artifact, or metadata repository into a target repository. The target repository will be an exact mirror of the source (metadata or artifacts). This means any information on the target repository prior to mirroring will be lost, and if there is no target repository to begin with then a new repository will be created.
For metadata only:
-console -consolelog -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tools.MirrorApplication -metadatasource http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.4milestones/ -metadatadestination file:/tmp/3.4milestonesMirror/ -ius all -overwrite
For artifacts only:
-console -consolelog -application org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tools.MirrorApplication -artifactsource http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.4milestones/ -artifactdestination file:/tmp/3.4milestonesMirror/ -artifacts all -overwrite
In the future this mirroring application will be capable of taking an IU, and additionally mirror all referenced IUs resulting in minimal mirrors of specific IUs (e.g. ask for org.eclipse.ide.sdk and get a repo with everything needed to run the sdk).
