[jira] Reopened: (MNG-4759) Allow --global-settings target
arbitrary resources, e.g.
scm:svn:http://svn.acme.com/infra/trunk/maven/settings.xml
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4759?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
jieryn reopened MNG-4759:
-------------------------
For distributed builds which are utilizing clustered continuous integration (like Hudson), it is quite handy to have all slaves utilizing the same settings.xml file. The problem then becomes how to reliably get the settings.xml to slave node without requiring explicit configuration of those slaves. It would be far easier if I could store a Maven settings.xml file in some SCM and point to it via standard Maven URI of such a resource.
An example command line invocation might look like:
$ mvn --global-settings scm:svn:http://repo.acme.com/infrastructure/maven/settings.xml clean install
This would cause Maven to fetch settings.xml from SCM and use it for subsequent clean and install goal execution. The main issue I'm facing presently is that dynamically provisioned slave resources do not automatically mirrOf * to our corporate MRM.
Maven already supports a --global-settings configuration switch, I just would like it to be enhanced to be more robust in what it accepts.
