title: Azure repos Collector tags: keywords: summary: sidebar: hygieia_sidebar permalink: azure-repos.html

Configure the Azure Repos Collector to display and monitor information (related to code contribution activities) on the Hygieia Dashboard, from the Azure DevOps repository. Collect source code details from Azure DevOps repos based on the repository URL.

This project uses Spring Boot to package the collector as an executable JAR file with dependencies.

Setup Instructions

Fork and Clone the Collector

Fork and clone the Artifactory Collector from the GitHub repo.

To configure the Azure repos Collector, execute the following steps:

• Step 1: Change Directory

Change the current working directory to the hygieia-scm-azure-repos-collector directory of your Hygieia source code installation.

For example, in the Windows command prompt, run the following command:

cd C:\Users\[username]\hygieia-scm-azure-repos-collector

• Step 2: Run Maven Build

Run the maven build to package the collector into an executable jar file:

 mvn install

The output file [collector name].jar is generated in the hygieia-scm-azure-repos-collector\target folder.

• Step 3: Set Parameters in Application Properties File

Set the configurable parameters in the application.properties file to connect to the Dashboard MongoDB database instance, including properties required by the Azure repos Collector.

For information about sourcing the application properties file, refer to the Spring Boot Documentation.

To configure parameters for the Azure repos Collector, refer to the sample application.properties file.

• Step 4: Deploy the Executable File

To deploy the [collector name].jar file, change directory to hygieia-scm-azure-repos-collector\target, and then execute the following from the command prompt:

java -jar [collector name].jar --spring.config.name=azure-repos --spring.config.location=[path to application.properties file]

Sample Application Properties File

The sample application.properties file lists parameter values to configure the Azure Repos Collector. Set the parameters based on your environment setup.

		# Database Name
		dbname=dashboarddb

		# Database HostName - default is localhost
		dbhost=localhost

		# Database Port - default is 27017
		dbport=27017

		# MongoDB replicaset
		dbreplicaset=[false if you are not using MongoDB replicaset]
		dbhostport=[host1:port1,host2:port2,host3:port3]

		# Database Username - default is blank
		dbusername=dashboarduser

		# Database Password - default is blank
		dbpassword=dbpassword

		# Logging File location
		logging.file=./logs/azure-repos.log

		#Collector schedule (required)
		azure-repos.cron=0 0/1 * * * *
		
		# Azure Respos API Version (optional, defaults to current version of 6.0)
		azure-repos.apiVersion=6.0

		# Azure Repos API Token (required, user token the collector will use by default, can be overridden on a per repo basis from the UI. API token provided by azure-repos)
		azure-repos.personalAccessToken=
		
		# This is the key generated using the Encryption class in core
		azure-repos.key=<your-generated-key>
		
		# Proxy Host
		azure-repos.proxyHost=
		
		# Proxy Port
		azure-repos.proxyPort=
		
		# Non Proxy xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
		azure-repos.nonProxy=
