# Maven Sync Setup
_Reposilite_-based Maven Repository Manager acting as a caching proxy.

## Downloading packages
Run the following command:

```sh
./run.sh
```

This starts the reposilite server, then starts maven and makes download all packages defined in the pom's in the `examples/` folder, including their dependencies. These packages are then cached by reposilite in `data/`. The relevant folders are turned into tarballs and saved in the root directory.

## Adding packages
New packages should be defined as a dependency in a `pom.xml` file in a subfolder in `examples/`.

After the `pom.xml` is updated, run `./generate_master_pom.xml` to update the root `pom.xml` file, and commit the changes.

This structure is necessary to make dependabot find all dependencies.
