Hi All,
I am a committer on project Stardust and
we are currently working on the setup of the build process for
our sources. Our build is heavily based on Ivy and Maven,
hence we need to consume our dependencies via maven.
For the largest part of our dependencies we
already have CQs in “approved” state and especially we have
got approval to reuse quite a bit of stuff from Orbit.
Looking at the documents
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Common_Build_Infrastructure#Maven
and
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Maven we were hoping to find
most of what we need in the “orbit” repository on
http://maven.eclipse.org/nexus/index.html#view-repositories
. Furthermore, we were hoping that we could consume approved
dependencies available from Maven central in the “central”
repository of http://maven.eclipse.org/nexus/index.html#view-repositories
.
Is this how the repositories are intended
to be used? It seems that currently the orbit repository is
empty and the “central” repository does not provide most of
what we need. What would be the process to get approved Orbit
and “central” dependencies made available via the nexus
repository?
As a side-note: It appears that we can get
some of our requested dependencies only approved as Subsets by
removing problematic content. ? If modifications to the
original dependency are mandated for legal reasons, we will
need a dedicated repository to hold the modified artifacts. I
assume in these cases a good approach might be to contribute
them to orbit where possible and then consume them via the
Nexus repository?
Thanks for any help on how to proceed.
Regards
Herbert
