Hi all,
I wanted to submit a proposal that would help us improve the design of
mirroring support in Maven 3. The approach I advocate would reduce the
amount of configuration needed to use local repository managers,
streamline environment setup for new users in a custom environment, and
provide a way to allow the maven repository system to scale a little
better across more donated space in different locations.
I've already got the implementation done, but I'm still trying to get
the integration tests up and running again (there are something like 8
failures). Right now, it's on a branch in my Github clone of the
canonical apache/maven-3.git mirror. The full proposal is in the
front-page README.md on that branch.
The source + README is here:
https://github.com/jdcasey/maven-3/tree/auto-mirror
I've also added a small diagram to show the basic file format(s) and the
Route-M classes...along with how they're integrated into the existing
Maven architecture.
Please, if you have some time, take a look. I'd really like to get this
in place for a possible Maven 3.1 release.
Thanks,
-john
