using archetypes not deployed on central or one of it's mirrors
---------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1670
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1670
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: New Feature
    Versions: 2.0    
    Reporter: Jorg Heymans
    Priority: Minor


I have an archetype deployed on cvs.apache.org/maven-snapshot-repository. There 
is no way for users to use this archetype without creating a dummy pom first so 
that the configuration in settings.xml (where i defined this repository) kicks 
in.


IRC log :

jorg    does the archetype plugin take settings.xml in account ? I've defined 
it as http://rafb.net/paste/results/8ajh7v15.html , but when looking for the 
archetype it doesn't even go to that server
jorg    or maybe it's a pluginRepository instead ... trying
jdcasey jorg: I think the active profiles in the settings.xml are only applied 
to the current project, so if you're executing without a current project I 
dunno that it will use them
jorg    oh drats
jorg    so i'll give the users a dummy pom + settings.xml to execute against.. 
mmmm
jdcasey jorg: it might be nice to have in the future though...
jdcasey it could modify the instance of the super-project that's loaded in 
memory
jorg    might be nice yes .. i don't see any other way
jorg    (unless your archetype is published to the primary download site or one 
of it's mirrors ofcourse)
jdcasey file it, if you like
jorg    :)
jdcasey :)


so unless you've got your stuff on ibiblio nobody can easily use your archetype.
