Products

• Continuous Delivery Director

Issue/Introduction

How can we manage the size of our CDD DB?

Environment

Release : 8.0.0

Component : CONTINUOUS DELIVERY DIRECTOR

Resolution

Please find below CDD REST API to manage releases. All below API of CDD can be access via swagger interface of CDD i.e. Login to CDD -> User Avatar (Top Right) -> REST API 

To get list of all releases 

API section: Design  |  API: /releases    |  Method: GET 

         Status available: RUNNING_WITH_FAILURES, RUNNING, DONE

Examples: 

# To get all releases without any filter

       curl -X GET --header "Accept: application/json" "http://CDD_SERVER_HOSTNAME:CDD_PORT/cdd/design/0000/v1/releases"

# To get all releases with status DONE

       curl -X GET --header "Accept: application/json" "http://CDD_SERVER_HOSTNAME:CDD_PORT/cdd/design/0000/v1/releases?status=DONE"

# To get all releases with status RUNNING

       curl -X GET --header "Accept: application/json" "http://CDD_SERVER_HOSTNAME:CDD_PORT/cdd/design/0000/v1/releases?status=RUNNING"

# To get all releases with status RUNNING_WITH_FAILURES

       curl -X GET --header "Accept: application/json" "http://CDD_SERVER_HOSTNAME:CDD_PORT/cdd/design/0000/v1/releases?status=RUNNING_WITH_FAILURES"
