Quarkus JGit

The Quarkus JGit extension enables the use of Eclipse JGit in a native executable.

Configuration

Once you have your Quarkus project configured you can add the jgit extension to your project by running the following command in your project base directory:

./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions="jgit"

This will add the following to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.quarkiverse.jgit</groupId>
    <artifactId>quarkus-jgit</artifactId>
    <version>3.3.0</version>
</dependency>

Usage

The JGit dependency is resolved transitively when the extension is added to your project. Here is an example using it in a JAX-RS endpoint:

    @GET
    @Path("/clone")
    @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
    public String cloneRepository(@QueryParam("url") String url) throws Exception {
        File tmpDir = Files.createTempDirectory("tmpgit").toFile();
        try (Git git = Git.cloneRepository().setDirectory(tmpDir).setURI(url).call()) {
            return tmpDir.toString();
        }
    }

When building a native executable, make sure that the SSL support is configured appropriately.

DevServices

JGit starts a Gitea server for testing purposes. The server is disabled by default when running tests. To enable it, set the quarkus.jgit.devservices.enabled configuration property to true.

An admin user is created with the following credentials:

  • Username: quarkus

  • Password: quarkus
