Chapter 6. Managing Service Registry content using the REST API
This chapter explains how to manage artifacts stored in the registry using the Registry REST API. This includes using Registry REST API commands, a Maven plug-in, or a Java client application:
6.1. Managing artifacts using Registry REST API commands
Client applications can use Registry REST API commands to manage artifacts in Service Registry, for example, in a CI/CD pipeline deployed in production. The Registry REST API provides create, read, update, and delete operations for artifacts, versions, metadata, and rules stored in the registry. For detailed information, see the Apicurio Registry REST API documentation.
This section shows a simple curl-based example of using the Registry REST API to add and retrieve an Apache Avro schema artifact in the registry.
When adding artifacts in Service Registry using the REST API, if you do not specify a unique artifact ID, Service Registry generates one automatically as a UUID.
Prerequisites
- See Section 1.4, “Registry REST API”.
- Service Registry must be installed and running in your environment. For details, see Chapter 3, Installing Service Registry on OpenShift.
Procedure
Add an artifact in the registry using the
/artifacts
operation. The following examplecurl
command adds a simple artifact for a share price application:$ curl -X POST -H "Content-type: application/json; artifactType=AVRO" -H "X-Registry-ArtifactId: share-price" --data '{"type":"record","name":"price","namespace":"com.example","fields":[{"name":"symbol","type":"string"},{"name":"price","type":"string"}]}' http://MY-REGISTRY-HOST/api/artifacts
This example shows adding an Avro schema artifact with an artifact ID of
share-price
.MY-REGISTRY-HOST
is the host name on which Service Registry is deployed. For example:my-cluster-service-registry-myproject.example.com
.Verify that the response includes the expected JSON body to confirm that the artifact was added. For example:
{"createdOn":1578310374517,"modifiedOn":1578310374517,"id":"share-price","version":1,"type":"AVRO","globalId":8}
Retrieve the artifact from the registry using its artifact ID. For example, in this case the specified ID is
share-price
:$ curl http://MY-REGISTRY-URL/api/artifacts/share-price '{"type":"record","name":"price","namespace":"com.example","fields":[{"name":"symbol","type":"string"},{"name":"price","type":"string"}]}

6.2. Managing artifacts using the Service Registry Maven plug-in
Service Registry provides a Maven plug-in to enable you to upload or download registry artifacts as part of your development build. For example, this plug-in is useful for testing and validating that your schema updates are compatible with client applications.
Prerequisites
- Service Registry must be installed and running in your environment
- Maven must be installed and configured in your environment
Procedure
Update your Maven
pom.xml
file to use theapicurio-registry-maven-plugin
to upload an artifact to Service Registry. The following example shows registering an Apache Avro schema artifact:<plugin> <groupId>io.apicurio</groupId> <artifactId>apicurio-registry-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>${registry.version}</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>generate-sources</phase> <goals> <goal>register</goal> 1 </goals> <configuration> <registryUrl>http://my-cluster-service-registry-myproject.example.com/api</registryUrl> 2 <artifactType>AVRO</artifactType> <artifacts> <schema1>${project.basedir}/schemas/schema1.avsc</schema1> 3 </artifacts> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin>
You can also update your Maven
pom.xml
file to download a previously registered artifact from Service Registry:<plugin> <groupId>io.apicurio</groupId> <artifactId>apicurio-registry-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>${registry.version}</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>generate-sources</phase> <goals> <goal>download</goal> 1 </goals> <configuration> <registryUrl>http://my-cluster-service-registry-myproject.example.com/api</registryUrl> 2 <ids> <param1>schema1</param1> 3 </ids> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}</outputDirectory> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin>

6.3. Managing artifacts using a Service Registry client application
You can also manage artifacts stored in Service Registry using a Java client application. You create, read, update, or delete artifacts stored in the registry using the Service Registry Java client classes.
Prerequisites
- See Section 1.6, “Kafka client serializers/deserializers”
-
You must have implemented a client application in Java that imports the Service Registry client classes:
io.apicurio.registry.client.RegistryClient
- Service Registry must be installed and running in your environment
Procedure
Update your client application to add a new artifact in the registry. The following example shows adding an Apache Avro schema artifact from a Kafka producer client application:
String registryUrl_node1 = PropertiesUtil.property(clientProperties, "registry.url.node1", "http://my-cluster-service-registry-myproject.example.com/api"); 1 try (RegistryService service = RegistryClient.create(registryUrl_node1)) { String artifactId = ApplicationImpl.INPUT_TOPIC + "-value"; try { service.getArtifactMetaData(artifactId); 2 } catch (WebApplicationException e) { CompletionStage < ArtifactMetaData > csa = service.createArtifact( 3 ArtifactType.AVRO, artifactId, new ByteArrayInputStream(LogInput.SCHEMA$.toString().getBytes()) ); csa.toCompletableFuture().get(); } }
- 1
- Configure the client application with the Service Registry URL in the client properties. You must specify the Service Registry URL with the
/api
endpoint. You can create properties for more than one registry node. - 2
- Check to see if the schema artifact already exists in the registry based on the artifact ID.
- 3
- Add the new schema artifact in the registry.
