Specifying credentials with archetype:generate
If I have a Maven repo that requires authentication, how do I specify
the credentials for that repo when using mvn archetype:generate?
You can specify the URL of the repo using the archetypeRepository
parameter - but I can see no way of tying that up that up with the
credentials specified in settings.xml that is used to supply
credentials. The <server> tag in settings.xml doesn't take a URL, and
archetype:generate doesn't take a server id.
As a result, I can't generate a new project from an archetype in a
password protected repo, as I just get 401 unauthorised.
Thanks for any advice,
Greg

Thanks. It's obvious when you know where to look, clearly my
Google-foo failed me on this one!

How to generate a project from an archetype in an authenticated
repository?
The server id used to download the artifact is
[archetypeArtifactId]-repo: you have to define corresponding server
configuration in settings.xml with this id.
