Maven Sync Setup

Reposilite-based Maven Repository Manager acting as a caching proxy.

Downloading packages

Run the following command:

./run.sh

This starts the reposilite server, then starts maven and makes download all packages defined in the pom's in the poms/ 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 poms/.

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.
