Eclipse project build automation [message #1806885]

Hello,

I am trying to automate builds of my eclipse plugins using maven with the Tycho plugin. The issue is that my company forbids access to eclipse repositories (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen/) since it is not a secure url with https. As a consequence, maven can't get its required dependencies.

Therefore I thought I could create a local eclipse repository clone using nexus (a kind of target platform). Could this approach work ? Has anyone faced a similar issue and figured out a better solution ? And how can I deal with my issue? Any documentation is also welcome.

It's not really a JDT question.

I assume the fundamental problem is that it is a composite like this:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<?compositeMetadataRepository version='1.0.0'?>
<repository name='Eclipse Repository'  type='org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.metadata.repository.CompositeMetadataRepository' version='1.0.0'>
  <properties size='3'>
    <property name='p2.timestamp' value='1313779613118'/>
    <property name='p2.compressed' value='true'/>
    <property name='p2.atomic.composite.loading' value='true'/>
  </properties>
  <children size='3'>
     <child location='http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/oxygen/'/>
    <child location='201804111000' />
    <child location='201803211000' />
    <child location='201712201001' />
  </children>
</repository>

So instead of using this site directly use https://download.eclipse.org/releases/oxygen/201804111000 (the final maintenance release) and https//download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/oxygen instead. The latter is not a composite but an aggregate (simple) repository.

If for any reasons you still want a local mirror, have a look at https://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Repository_Mirroring
