Need a Maven repo simulator for redirection

[John Lopez <jo...@uslopez.com>]

Hi,

 

I'm looking for a web server maven simulator that I can redirect for the
sources of the jar for artifacts.

 

I work for a large company that has been using open source, and maven for
getting and building using outside artifacts. We heavily use maven.

 

We are now cramping down on security and want to validate all sources that
go into our products. 

 

We have one group that currently rebuilds from source for all languages and
platforms. It has it's own directory structure that is static and isn't
going to change for maven support.

 

I'm thinking that I can have a web server that simulates the maven repo and
uses a normal repo if it doesn't have a configuration for an artifact
redirect.

 

Is there such a product?

 

Thanks,

John

True but a large organization like he mentions should already be using a 
repository server anyway. Just for the mere convenience and speed 
improvements alone and the courtesy to reduce load off central.

A series of Apache rewrite rules is pretty simple (and thus
inexpensive) to write, if he wants a free solution and only needs to
handle this specific use case. Longer term, I agree with moving to
Nexus (Pro or free, depending on needs) or another Repo Manager
solution.

Get Sonatype Nexus Professional. it is designed to do just that with the 
Procurement feature.

Way cheaper than trying to build your own solution.
