by Ian Bull

GitHub API for querying users & repositories In this article, we will look how we used the GitHub API for querying users and repositories of an organization. In particular, we will look at how promises were combined to make the data retrieval easier. Querying GitHub is relatively easy with the GitHub API. The GitHub API is REST based and provides access to your Activity, Gists, Issues, Organizations,...

Minimal JSON 0.9.1 available on Maven Central

by Ralf Sternberg
in EclipseSource News
Comments

Earlier this year I've introduced Minimal JSON, a slim and fast Java library for reading and writing JSON. In contrast to object mappers such as Gson or Jackson, Minimal JSON does not more than reading a JSON text into a memory-efficient Java representation that can be accessed, modified and serialized to JSON again. You can see some code examples on the project page. We're using this...

Accessing multiple private GitHub repositories without a dedicated build user

by Holger Staudacher
in EclipseSource News
Comments

We have been using GitHub at EclipseSource for roughly 2 years now. Using it as a company means that we are hosting all our internal projects, products and many customer projects on GitHub. GitHub was (and is) a great solution for us, except when it came to accessing multiple private GitHub repositories from our build server. Basically this is not a problem because you can add...

Github everywhere with venture funding?

by Jochen Krause
in Planet Eclipse
Comments

Github has announced a Series A round of venture funding today. They are taking 100 million USD from Andreessen Horowitz - and at least the first part of the name should be familiar to software developers. The announcement is a surprise as Github has always refrained from taking venture money. No surprise is their goal of making Github an essential infrastructure component for all software development....

Using OSGi services to single-source an RCP and RAP Application

by Holger Staudacher
in Planet Eclipse, Planet OSGi
Comments

Probably one of RAP’s best known features is its single-sourcing capabilities. Some time ago we created a guide on Single-Sourcing RCP and RAP applications. The guide recommended a technique where a facade and fragments were used to invoke the RCP or RAP implementation during runtime. With this post I want to show you how to achieve the same the OSGi way. For single-sourcing a RAP or...

You don’t have to use git to access code on github

by Holger Staudacher
in Planet Eclipse
Comments

I guess a lot of people would agree that github is the current kick-ass platform for developing software. Many platforms showed up fast and with the same speed they disappeared. Github is different. It's also genuinely innovative. For several months I use github to share small projects (widgets, tools, small plug-ins). When I write a blog about something new I always link the associated github...

Launch an OSGi app and automatically kill its running instance

by Holger Staudacher
in Planet Eclipse, Planet OSGi
Comments

If you use Eclipse to develop OSGi based applications you may use the OSGi Launcher provided by the PDE Tooling. It's cool tooling because it gives you full control over the OSGi instance to be launched.  You can choose the OSGi framework (e.g. Equinox or Felix), select the bundles to install and much more. But this launcher has one drawback that hurts every time I run...
