Hi Dima,
Regardless of the github release area, etc., the official release repository
for Apache Metron are via the Apache mirrors at
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/incubator/metron/
soon to be moved to
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/metron/
Please go there, pick a mirror, and browse that repository, eg at
http://mirrors.gigenet.com/apache/incubator/metron/
The numbered top-level subdirectories under these URIs represent released
versions of Metron. By looking at those you can determine the currently
available releases. For a given mirror, you can script the determination.
The corresponding location for Release Candidates is
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/metron/
soon to be moved to
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/metron/
DO NOT DOWNLOAD LARGE OR FREQUENT AMOUNTS OF CONTENT FROM
dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/ . It is not mirrored, and is only intended for
developer use.
Again, the numbering system is obvious. The 0.4.0-RC1 is here, and RC2 will be
going up shortly.
Once you’ve determined the version you want, you can deduce the github tag and
clone from it, if that is more convenient than using the tarball from the
Apache release repo.
Hope this helps,
--Matt

Otto, had a look at 777 PR. Yes, it looks like something we would use.
When do you think it will be released?
And in meantime the question still stands, is there a way to get current
release id/branch for the script?
Thank you.

No, Take a look at METRON-777 PR.
What I want is an extension mechanism, where you can:
1. create a project from a metron maven archetype
2. produce an extension ( parser, enrichment, stellar lib, ?? )
3. install that extension through the management UI and configure
All without touching the metron code.

Regarding parsers and enrichment, new java based topologies for bluecoat,
msexchange, msserver, asa, etc.
Batching, we use NiFi + Kylo for both stream and batch, but batch data send
to java based tool that passes data through parsers/enrichments classes and
stores in Hive.
So what you suggesting is to have internal repo with all our changes alone
and to merge it with Apache Metron whenever we need to get full build?

Thanks!
Parsers, and Enrichments, we have a plan or idea about. When you say
extends batch processing… can you say what tech/component/part of stack you
extended?
New topologies? New WriterBolts? etc?
I would like as complete a picture as possible of the things for which
anyone would say:
“If I could write this outside the metron tree, i could not have to
maintain a private company fork”

Otto,
Yes, we developed custom parsers and enrichments (in future we seek to open
source them, but have no time to up them to the decent level currently). We
also merged our custom tools that extends Metron batching processing and store
data in HDFS and Hive to be used by tableau, zeppelin, etc.
Is that answers your question? Let me know if you want to know more.

Can I ask Dima, as comfortable you are in describing, what areas do you
make changes or additions to that require you to maintain a fork?
Custom parsers? Enrichments? Other?
I have done some work, and have more planned and lined up to try to
eliminate the requirement to develop in the metron tree to extend the product,
and would be interested in your cases.

Hello,
We want to merge latest metron release branch with out develpoment every
time it is get released. What is the path we should take here in order
to identify what release happened successfully?
Latest release is 0.3.1 currently, but since you're preparing for 0.4.0
(which will take a while) following links already have 0.4.0:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/blob/master/pom.xml
https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/releases
The only place I have found with 0.3.1 (current latest release) is:
https://metron.apache.org/documentation/#releases
But there is no way for a script to figure what commit or branch to pick
up from github for merging.
Can you please suggest?
Thank you.
