If you are interested in using an existing instance of Artifactory as your object store instead of Minio, we are providing this capability as an early preview/alpha for testing.
To set this up, you will need to have the following:
- Know the URL to the Artifactory instance
- Know (or generate) an API key to authenticate to the instance
- Create a repo for the Habitat artifacts
Once you have the above, modify the your bldr.env based on the same config in bldr.env.sample in order to enable Artifactory.
Once you have bldr.env updated, you can do an install normally using the install.sh script.
After logging into the Depot Web UI and creating your origins, you can try uploading some packages and check your Artifactory instance to ensure that they are present in the repo you specified.
If you run into any issues, please see the Support section below.
If you just want to do a quick test, you can also run a local Artifactory instance. In order to do that, you can do the following:
sudo hab svc load core/artifactoryThis spins up a local Artifactory instance, which you can view at: http://localhost:8081/artifactory/webapp/#/home
If you use Artifactory for your Habitat Builder on-prem artifact store, we recommend reading about Artifactory's best practices for disaster recovery.
