JVM index generator

coursier jvm-index

This repository hosts and manages the JVM index used by the cs java and cs java-home commands of coursier, and more generally, the JVM management capabilities of coursier.

Generating the index locally

Generate an index with

$ GH_TOKEN="****" ./scala-cli.sh src

or

$Env:GH_TOKEN="*****"
scala-cli src

Just ./scala-cli.sh src can work if GH_TOKEN is not set, but it usually gets rate-limited by the GitHub API. You can read more about creating a token here. Just having the public_repo scope will be enough for the access you need.

The index is written in index.json in the current directory.

Use by coursier

The index generated here is now used by the java and java-home commands of coursier.

If you suspect one of those commands doesn't use a newer JVM version, pass --update --ttl 0 to them, like

$ cs java --env --jvm graalvm-java17:22.0.0 --update --ttl 0
