Migration to v2 from v1

v2.0 changelog

The main changes coming with v2.0 are:

  • name’s changing from Nautilus Connectors Kit to Artefactory Connectors Kit. All references to NCK have been changed to ACK.

  • a new entrypoint using a json config file for commands to avoid very long command lines: ack/entrypoints/json/main.py. It takes the config file’s path as an argument with --config-file:

python ack/entrypoints/json/main.py --config-file path/to/file.json

  • change of the cli entrypoint’s path from nck/entrypoint.py to ack/entrypoints/cli/main.py:

python ack/entrypoints/cli/main.py reader --option-name option writer --option-name option

  • support only by Python 3.8 and by more recent versions to fully use Typing library

How to migrate

  1. Pull the dev branch from the GitHub repository if you already set-up your environment:

git pull origin dev

  1. If your virtual environment is running Python 3.7 or less, you need to recreate it (you can test it with python -V in your virtualenv). If it’s running Python 3.8 or more, you can pass to step 3.

Your first need to be sure that your python3 -V gives version 3.8 or more. If not, you need to install a more recent Python version. Then, do:

rm -rf ack-env
python3 -m venv ack-env
source ack-env/bin/activate

  1. Install/update the dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements-dev.text

  1. Change the entrypoint’s path of all your commands from nck/entrypoint.py to ack/entrypoints/cli/main.py. If you wish, you can also convert your commands into a json config file following the documentation in the ACK with a .json config file section.
