如何将Maven / Gradle项目及其所有依赖项安装到本地存储库？

Question

I have a Gradle project that depends on several open-source projects up on Maven Central. I'd like to install the project – along with all its direct and transitive dependencies – to my local maven repository, so that I could later zip it all up and put it on offline machines.

How do I do it with Gradle/Maven?

Answer 1

mvn dependency:get plugin will fetch the artifact with all dependencies to the local repository.

I had also developed a plugin to install remote artifacts to a local machine.

Answer 2

If you want to later ZIP up your project w/ dependencies and move them to a different machine, you could try Maven's appassembler plugin . It collects all dependencies and creates a launcher, all in the target folder, ready for deployment.

But note, this, by default, creates a flat directory structure with all dependencies, it doesn't preserve the Maven format. It also has the option to create a repository.
