Adding artifacts to local repository - how?
Hello - I'm new to Maven and am having some difficulty with what I
thought would be a simple task. I would like to add a few artifacts (jar
files) to my local repository. I have tried to use artifact:install
(http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/artifact/tags.html#artifact%3Ainstall) with the command below:
%maven -Dmaven.home.local=/red/home/maven artifact:install
-Dartifact=mymail.api -Dtype=jar
but I get the following result:
> BUILD FAILED
> Goal "artifact:install" does not exist in this project.
Is there a better way to add my own artifacts to the local repository?
What would that be? Or if the artifact:install method is the way to do
it, what am I missing? Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks
Antonio

Ahh... I understand.
I've done it manually once or twice, however see my other thread with
the subject "Re: Dependencies without repositories. Was: Re: Dependencies".
There is a description of how I personally handle that situation --
which is only one way out of several that I've seen people talk about in
this group.

I do not have the source to create the jars. These are 3rd party
libraries. From the docs on the plugin it appears that the jar:install
goal would trigger the jar:jar goal to create the jar from source (which
I don't have...).

RE: Adding artifacts to local repository - how?
Posted by Antonio Bemfica <an...@bemfi.ca>.
Thanks again for the information. I did read the docs for the artifact
plugin ahead of my very first post. Given my background, eagerness to
"get it to work" fast and the fact that at the time I had spent only a
minimal amount of time using maven (less than two hours...), I both
didn't understand and didn't appreciate the importance of the
information on the docs for the plugin - I probably still don't...
I have only a projec.xml file - no maven.xml. I am trying to bite only
as much as I can chew... I have not set any goals and am only using what
is already there. If you tell me that artifact:install is the RIGHT way
of accomplish what I am trying to do (and from both the docs and your
note below, it appears to be), then I will go about learning how to set
my own goals. Expect some more clueless posts!
Thanks for the help.
A.
PS: The "Dependancies without repositories" thread has some info that
addresses the underlying need at my organisation - I found some answers
there.

As I said, see the documentation on the artifact plugin
(http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/artifact/index.html). If you
read the documentation on the artifact:install tag (see
http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/artifact/tags.html), it explains
why you should use it. Of course, you are free to use whatever works for
you, such as the example you show using the repository:copy-jar goal.

Thanks for the reply. It tells me the reason for the "BUILD FAILED"
message. Perhaps I should rephrase my question:
Is there a sanctioned/accepted/"right" way of adding local
artifacts to a local repository?
I had a look at the repository plugin and found that the command below
works well:
maven repository:copy-jar
-Dartifact=mymail.jar
-DgroupId=myown
-Dmaven.repo.central=localhost
-Dmaven.repo.central.directory=/red/home/maven/repository
-Dmaven.username=maven
I have no qualms admitting my ignorance on the matter, so any
clarification here would be welcomed.

The artifact plugin does not define any goals. It defines tags. See the
docs: http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/artifact/index.html.
