Re: Howto publish a JAR that was not generated by Maven to the m2 repo ?

As we build the Velocity code also using straight ant, I used e.g.

mvn -Dfile=anakia-1.0.jar \
	-Drepository.id=apache.releases \
	-DpomFile=pom.xml \
	-Durl=scpexe://people.apache.org/www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository
	deploy:deploy-file

to deploy releases. The URL thing obviously sucks and you will need a
POM that is derived from the official Apache POM so that the
repository.id is defined but apart from that, you will get the POM, the
jar and all the checksum and signature files into the repo in one go.

Ah, I wasn't aware that deploy:deploy-file did not actually use the .md5 
and .sha files that I had on my local disk alongside the jar but instead 
generated its own.
Anyway, that's what I ended up doing - copying the .asc file directly to 
the repo folder where the jar is.

thanks,

We haven't solved that one yet... http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MGPG-7

In the past I've just used a script to walk a local directory
structure and scp the signatures up to the right place in the repo.

As Wendy already wrote, I was wrong here. I do remember dimly now that I
copied the signature files by hand.

I did a test (deploying to my home directory instead of the repository) 
and this command works fine except that it did not deploy the signature 
file. This was with Maven 2.0.6. Do I have to copy it manually or is 
there some magic command line parameter that tells Maven to also deploy 
the .asc file ?

cheers,
Tom

Oh nice, thanks a lot, Henning, that looks like what I need.

cheers,
