Hello all,
I want to transfer the repository configuration from an existing Nexus in production environment to another Nexus instance (new installation).
To do this, I made the following “API call” against the existing Nexus:
curl -u admin:password -X GET ‘http://192.168.0.21:8081/service/rest/v1/repositories’
The call is successful and I get a JSON file containing information about all 50 existing repos.
The repos consist of different formats, e.g. maven, raw, nuget, npm…
What is the easiest way now to transfer / get this JSON file / content / configuration to another Nexus instance via API? I can’t find a corresponding post command for my used API call.
I only find API post commands for creating individual repos (or groups) … but the syntax in the JSON file for post-command seems to be different …
Alternatively, I also searched for Ansible modules (ansible galaxy web site) …
But here I can’t find a module which supports the creation of all types of repositories. The majority only supports maven repos … somtimes docker, too.
So can you help me please ?
Thanks in advance,
Raphael
