Hi all,
I need to use a plugin available from Codehaus sandbox (this plugin is
http://mojo.codehaus.org/dashboard-maven-plugin/ dashboard-maven-plugin ).
As explained in the plugin page, I need to add the following lines in my
settings.xml file:
Codehaus Snapshots
http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/
With this information, the plugin works correctly.
In my company, we use a global repository, which is currently a shared
directory on a network drive.
Thus, all users have the following settings.xml file:
C:\m2\repository\
global-repository
Global repo
file://F:\...\repository
central
true
global-repository
true
true
file://F:\...\repository
my.company.plugins
This repository is the mirror of the Global repository, and the users has no
access to external repositories (Maven is not configured to access Internet
on their computers).
So, I added the plugin Dashboard-Report in our global repository. Now, in
"local" configuration (i.e. with a settings.xml without external access),
Maven is not able to retrieve this plugin. It throws the following error
when I try to use it:
The plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dashboard-report-plugin' does not
exist or no valid version could be found
I think that somewhere, in a XML metadata file, something is wrong, because
Maven did not understand that the plugin is not a org.apache.maven.plugins
(the prefix of this plugin is "dashboard-report").
What do I need to change in the settings.xml to make this plugin works in a
"local" configuration?
Or is there a "good way" to install this plugin in my global repository in
order to work fine with "local" configuration?
Note that we will move to Artifactory asap, but for the moment, I need a
solution to make this plugin works with a repository based on a shared
drive...
Thanks for your help.
ps: If you have any link, any information that clearly explains what Maven
do with all metadata-*.xml, do not hesitate to share them :o)
