Understanding Consumers in Apache Archiva
Archiva makes use of the concept of consumers. Consumers are components which consumes or processes an artifact. There is on type
of consumers in Archiva: repository content consumers.
* Repository Content Consumers
The repository content consumers consume or process artifacts during repository scanning. For every artifact found in the repository,
each consumer processes them. There are 8 available repository content consumers which can be configured in the Repository Scanning
page. These are:
* <<auto-remove>> - Removes files in the repository being scanned if the file type matches any of the configured file types to be removed.
* <<auto-rename>> - Automatically renames common artifact mistakes.
* <<create-missing-checksums>> - Creates the md5 and sha1 checksum files of the artifact if there are none available in the repository.
* <<index-content>> - Adds the content of the artifact (specifically the pom) to the index, allowing the artifact to be searched in Archiva.
* <<metadata-updater>> - Updates artifact metadata files depending on the content of the repository.
* <<repository-purge>> - Removes old snapshots from the repository either by the number of days old or by the retention count.
* <<validate-checksums>> - Validates the checksum files of the artifact.
* <<create-archiva-metadata>> - Take an artifact off of disk and put it into the metadata repository.
* <<duplicate-artifacts>> - Search the artifact repository of known SHA1 Checksums for potential duplicate artifacts.
