Setting up an update repository by creating a proxy repository

You can set up the update repository, also called p2 repository, by creating a proxy repository. This setup allows your infrastructure team to centralize and test updates before making them available to all Talend Studio users.

Before you begin

The artifact repository has been installed, either Sonatype Nexus or JFrog Artifactory. For more information, see Setting up an artifact repository for sharing external modules in Talend Studio.

About this task

This procedure shows you how to set up the update repository for Talend Studio feature packages and monthly updates by creating a proxy repository.

Procedure

  1. Create a repository in the right format:
    • If you are using Sonatype Nexus, create a proxy repository in a raw format.
    • If you are using JFrog Artifactory, create a virtual repository in a generic or maven format.
  2. Name the new repository repo-update, for example.
  3. Link the new repository to the official repository for a Talend Studio monthly update, for example, https://update.talend.com/Studio/8/updates/R2025-03 for 8.0 R2025-03 Talend Studio monthly update or https://update.talend.com/Studio/8/updates/latest for the latest Talend Studio monthly update.
    Later, you can use http://<repo-server>/repo-update to configure the update URL in Talend Studio or the -Dtalend.studio.p2.update parameter in Continuous Integration, where <repo-server> is the IP address or the host name of your artifact repository server.
