There is a retrieve operation in the command line. I used this command:
% java -cp <classpath> -settings ivysettings.xml -retrieve
"target/lib/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"
This does create a target/lib subdirectory and adds the two direct
dependencies to this lib directory. That's a big step forward.
Unfortunately
it doesn't add the transitive dependencies. I don't see any warnings or
errors. I tried adding a transitive="true" attribute to both dependencies
in
the ivy.xml file, but that doesn't help. Running the command with -verbose
flag doesn't reveal any problem. Searched google to for any other clue,
but
couldn't find anythying.
You can use even -debug if verbose is not enough. The reason is usually that
Ivy doesn't find appropriate metadata. It may happen that this is only
cache's fault, so clean your cache and try again. If you still have trouble,
check your ivy cache after a resolve, and check the ivy file generated by
ivy for your dependencies. If they you see a default="true" attribute Ivy
has not found your pom. The debug log at least should tell which attempts
Ivy does.
One thing I think about, since you are using poms with an url resolver, it's
a good idea to tell ivy to use pom as extension. Replace your ivy pattern by
this one:
<ivy pattern="file:${user.home
}/.m2/repository/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[module]-[revision].pom
"/>
Last, I recommend using a file system resolver instead of an url one when
using file based repository. It allows to get revision listings.
HTH,
