Enhanced version command

Users may want to see dependencies as a function of the resolvers in the output of the version command. That information is available in the Ivy report XML file.

The App Builder could also leverage this information to give users insight about the source of an application's dependencies (private, workspace, user). For this, we'd use the -json argument.

We could generate the results with a simple stylesheet. For example:

File: zero-report.xsl

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
	<xsl:output method="text" />

	<xsl:template match="/">
		<xsl:for-each select="//revision/@resolver[not(.=preceding::revision/@resolver)]">
			<xsl:text>Resolver:  </xsl:text>
			<xsl:value-of select="."/>
			<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
			<xsl:variable name="rname" select="." />
			<xsl:apply-templates select="//module[$rname=revision/@resolver]" />
			<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
		</xsl:for-each>
	</xsl:template>
	
	<xsl:template match="//module">
		<xsl:text>	</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="@organisation"/>
		<xsl:text>:</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
		<xsl:text>:</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="revision/@name"/>
		<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
	</xsl:template>
	
</xsl:stylesheet>

applied to an Ivy report XML yields:

A snippet of Java code that applies a stylesheet to an XML document:

Java snippet

TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance(  );
Transformer transformer = 
	factory.newTransformer( new StreamSource( "zero-report.xsl" ) );
StreamSource xmlsource = new StreamSource( "reports/zero-myappab-default.xml" );
StreamResult output = new StreamResult( System.out );
transformer.transform( xmlsource, output );
