Redirects in ibiblio?
I was wondering if it would be possible to post a redirect to ibiblio that
would take someone to a different maven repository to find what they are
looking for. Sort of making ibiblio both a repository and a directory
service for finding the proper repository for software?

It's simply an Apache webserver serving up the content.

They can have their repositories for their own development but when
it comes to working for everyone else I believe the only real
solution is pushing it to central. Why? Because most of the
repositories setup by others tend to be crap, not managed, and things
come and go which makes them completely unstable. For example, I have
already seen release POMs being created that list repositories
listing dependencies that are no longer available in those
repositories rendering that release POM completely useless. Simply a
function of making thing work for their projects, and inadvertently
screwing everyone else. A network of repositories is nice in theory,
hasn't work out so well in practice and really the central repository
is not that terribly big and we'll make it easy for people to push to
the central repository.
But stats for projects is something we can definitely improve upon.

Hi,
depends largely on what you want to deploy it as. As a JAR or a RAR
(Resource Archive) or something else. Look at the maven plugin page
for plugins resembling your artifact type.

Christian

Re: Install/deploy a project with a single file
Posted by "Napoleon Esmundo C. Ramirez" <na...@gmail.com>.
Hello,
Wow, I never thought a project could consist only of a single xml file.
Anyway, I assume that it is a java-related project, so suggest that you
package it as a resource (relocate it in ${basedir}/src/main/resources) and
package it as a jar file. You can use a simple pom.xml (containing only the
modelVersion, groupId, artifactId, version) that way.
Cheers!

Hi,
Just wrap it up as a jar-packaged module, put the xml in src/main/resources
and you should be fine.
Remember to lookup the xml file via the classpath.
Cheers

Looks like you need to create a custom extension:

Thank you all for your answers,
Some comments:
1. The single file is used by different projects, this is the reason I
want it to be in a separate project.
2. I don't want it to be packaged, but I want it to be as is.

If you really want that file to be "the artifact" then I suppose you'd
have to invent a new packaging type and a plugin for it. See
'Specifying a New Packaging', here:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycl

But... what problem are you trying to solve here? Making that xml file
available to be included in various other modules, or... ? Often
telling us what you're trying to accomplish will get you better answers

If you really want that file to be "the artifact" then I suppose you'd
have to invent a new packaging type and a plugin for it. See

Hi,
I have a project with only a single xml file.
What should I define in the pom.xml file so that it will be installed
and deployed?
Thanks

Re: Redirects in ibiblio?
Posted by sharrissf <st...@terracottatech.com>.
Many projects like to keep various kinds of statistics. Sourceforge does some
of that. A repository redirect
doesn't sound much like complex functionality to me. It's just returning the
location of a repository
that contains the download. Seems simple to me but then again, I didn't
write the code or do the design.
In my opinion, if it has this feature then it can become ubiquitous. A
network of repostiories for people to put stuff downloadable for maven with
a directory service in the middle. I haven't run any statistics but I
suspect a whole bunch of the jars people use can't be gotten directly, even
from ibiblio/repo1, because the owners won't hand over that last bit of
control.
Cheers,
Steve

Ibibilio is being phased out and for Maven 2.x Ibiblio isn't used
much at all. The most recent releases of Maven 1.x also don't use
Ibiblio. Everything goes to our central repository machine which is:
http://repo1.maven.org
That said the plan for that machine is that it always remain a simple
web-based repository, there will never be any sort of applications
running on it.
What do you need as anything that is OSS in nature should be pushed
to the central repository. We're shooting to have the one intact
repository be mirrored all over the world.
