Managing Packages in Version View

CodeArts Artifact displays packages by version. In Version View tab, you can filter and check artifacts by name and version number, and sort files by their update time.

1. Access Release Repos.
2. On the Release Repos page, click the Version View tab. The list of packages with version numbers is displayed. Release Repos stores packages of different versions with the same name in the same file.
3. Click a file name in the File Name column. The latest version of the package is displayed.
4. Click a number in the Versions column. The version list of the package is displayed.

   

5. Click a number in the Version No. column. The Overview and Files pages of the package are displayed. In the Files tab, click a name in the File Name column. The path of the package is displayed.
6. Change the status if needed. By default, the package status is set to Not released after the version is configured.
   • In Files, set the status to Released. This will update the package to the Released status for the latest version.
   • Click a version in the Versions column to go to the version list. You can set the status of different versions to Released.

     The status changes from Not released to Released. The status change is irreversible. Exercise caution when performing this operation. Files in Released status cannot be modified or edited (including file names or version numbers), but can only be downloaded or deleted.
