Maven repository webapp
Hello.
Has anyone thought of or perhaps already written a webapp front-end for maven
repositories? Something that might offer a list of modules, latest versions,
links for downloads, and most importantly a search feature? It could also
publish an RSS feed or perhaps help to publish repository data to some
yet-to-be-written maven IDE plugin.
We're setting up a local maven repository for our inhouse development and a web
front end might be nice. Perhaps even a way to tie it all into the maven
generated documentation. These are just initial thoughts and ramblings, but I
wanted to see if anyone else had considered a similiar project.
Thanks,
jaaron

Sort of
http://projects.walding.com/overlord/
and
http://overlord.walding.com/
overlord is more targeted at global repository but it could also scale
down as required.

Searching for classes turned out to be incredibly easy, and worked fast
enough without optimizing anything. The box on the left of the pages in
this build searches for exact matches to classnames across all jar
artifacts in your repo.

Here's a beginning - our local devs were getting tired of figuring out
the 'dependency' entries. Its just been hacked up as straight JSPs,
theres only 3 classes so you're hardly going to get lost in the code if
you want to change this in any way...
Edit the path to your maven repo in the web.xml; you'll need to do the
same in the test classes to build this[1]
What you get from this is:
a) a big security hole ;) - don't ever put this up in public
b) a 'dependency' entry for each artifact thats figured out from the
filename - you can copy & paste this into your project.xml
Thats about it for now, but I intend to add a search facility for
finding classes in the jars. We use this as a front end on our nightly
build machine - which also acts as our group repository - so my copy of
the webapp will probably end up with some controls for that.
Sorry this is a bit of a hack, but hey, you're getting it for free.

[1] which is pretty dumb. The code should just use the 'maven.home'
property, and not fork for tests.

This has been thought about, discussed and put on the to do list.
All we need now is someone to do it :)
