What does publishing mean ?
Publishing a model makes it visible to everybody visiting the Eclipse Vorto Repository. Even if they are not logged in and are not collaborating to the namespace.
Please note that published models can only be
deprecatedand not deleted or unpublished.
In order to have permission to publish models, you need to fulfill a few requirements.
You need to
- be an owner or collaborator to an official namespace.
- have the role of
Publishfor the given official namespace. - have
releasedthe model and all submodels (will be released automatically if not already done)
Only after fulfilling those requirements you will be able to see the Publish button for the models of the according namespace.
Please make sure to understand, that published models can only be deprecated and not deleted or unpublished.
The dialog showing up once clicking the Publish button will again explain you the implications of making a model public.
After publishing, the Visibility of your model will show Public and everybody will be able to view and use it.
If you want to make the models you've created publicly available, you need to own the according official namespace.
In order to claim an official namespace, like e.g. org.eclipse.vorto, you need to reach out to the Vorto Team.
When reaching out to the Vorto Dev Team, please make sure to include the name of the namespace and UserId of its Owner.
