Re: [m2e-dev] Indexing Maven Repositories
|
m2e will use repository index if it is available, but will work fine
without it. removing the index is the way to disable this.

Guys,
Can I clarify something with you quickly please.
As you probably know (because I have emailed here many times before) we
have an rcp-based tool that creates maven-based web applications using m2e.
During releng we also embed a “snapshot” of our maven repo, hosted at
localhost:xxxx, that carries our target platform runtime as well as all
the required maven libraries. We build this repo using the
maven-dependency-plugin:go-offline goal, driving that with our archetype
POMs as the notional projects to take offline. This works well. I had
to patch maven-dependency-plugin so it downloaded surefire etc but it
works well.
Currently, we then use the nexus indexer jar to create a nexus index of
that repository so that at runtime m2e can gte it when it wants to.
Early on in the project I didn’t have much time to investigate why m2e
was requesting this index file and it was just easier to set releng up
to the indexing than it was to do anything else.
However, do we need to do the nexus indexing step? Why does m2e
request this index file and can that be turned off?
Many thanks,
_Paul
