Overview
========
This is a simple utility, with the intention of reading from a packed
payload, into a searchable tree.
The tree is comprised of url path bases.
Also, to be able to take a list of these path bases, and render a packed payload.
Algorithm
=========
For more information on the algorith used to pack the payload, see
https://github.com/jbowes/content-set-packer
Compiling
=========
You can use either ant, or maven. I included the only two jar deps, for local
tools and ant builds.
But the unit tests are currently run with maven.
Tools
=====
The CLI class was done away with, so as not to ship in the jar, anything uneeded for
the library. It's been rewritten in jRuby (see http://jruby.org/ ).
The script ./tools/handy.rb, has plenty of functionality, and feel free to add more.
** Usage
$> jruby tools/handy.rb --help
Usage: handy [options]
--dot output the dot digraph of content listing (defaults to ./src/test/resources/contents.list
--contents FILE use FILE instead of ./src/test/resources/contents.list
--cert FILE read contents from certificate FILE
--test PATH validate PATH, instead of [/content/beta/rhel/server/5/5server/x86_64/sap/os/repomd.xml]
--print print the tree of contents
$> jruby ./tools/handy.rb --dot > contents.dot && dot -Tpng contents.dot -o contents.png && display contents.png
$> jruby ./tools/handy.rb --cert ./src/test/resources/test-certv3.pem
[/content/beta/rhel/server/5/5server/x86_64/sap/os/repomd.xml] true
