Use Maven Offline

I'm new to maven and I want to know if it's posible to use it without an
internet conection?.
Just download plugins and install localy manually...
How to do it??


thanks.

Allow your Repo manager to have Internet access, that will make your life so
much easier! It will also be kind to the Internet repos.
What I know some people have done is to set up a mirror internally by
rsyncing a public repo. This puts a heavy load on those public repos and
also costs other people extra money (bandwidth is not free!). For that
reason, you cannot rsync from central.

Installing artifacts one by one (by copying them manually from the Internet)
is not maintainable. I've tried that for a customer some years ago and it
was a pain. Today there are better options such as the procurement features
of the Nexus Pro edition. So it all boils down to what kind of control you
need.

Yes but it can be a hassle. Realistically you should install a Maven
Repo Manager (Nexus, Artifactory, etc) and install/deploy files to it,
then point your Maven clients to it as a proxy/mirror etc.
