Hello,

thanks to help.
Unfortunately, I need to analyze mostly archives in an unattended way (not via 
the web interface). From a cronjob, I guess I can use svn to retrieve the 
proper version of my application + build an archive and then cp2foss + fossjobs 
to trigger the analysis. But how can I retrieve the results? If I wget 
http://localhost:1234/repo/?mod=license&show=detail&upload=10&item=???, how can 
I find out what is the item number related to my upload? Do I have to query the 
Db? 
I know that REST is on the way but I would accept gladly a workaround.
By the way, when do you expect the REST access to be available?

Cheers,

-- Phil MARTIN

Hello Phil,

REST access is on the list for future versions of fossology.  However, the one 
thing  you can do today is submit a file to a fossology server and have it 
return the licenses found.  To do this:

1)  edit  fossology/ui/plugins/agent-license-once.php.  Around line 40 you 
should see:

  /** For anyone to access, without login, use: **/
  // public $DBaccess   = PLUGIN_DB_NONE;
  // public $LoginFlag  = 0;

  /** To require login access, use: **/
  public $DBaccess = PLUGIN_DB_ANALYZE;
  public $LoginFlag = 1;

Uncomment the first two public lines, and comment the last two.  This allows 
the plugin to work with no authentication.

2) Post the file to analyze (a single file, not an archive that must be 
unpacked) to http://yourfossology/?mod=agent_license_once
The discovered license names will be returned.

2) For the upload protocol, are you just trying to use the command line  to 
upload files to a fossology server?  If so:
man cp2foss
man fossjobs
