如何将Neo4j快照构建部署到自定义Maven存储库？

Question

When I try to build neo4j from sources and deploy it, the deployment phase fails since there is already a repository defined in the grandparent 's pom.xml . Is it possible to redefine (or add) the DistributionManagement properties so that I'll be able to deploy custom neo4j build to an internal non-local repository?

Answer 1

It is possible since maven-deploy-plugin 2.8

Just be sure to use that version of the plugin (by defining it in neo4j's pom if neo4j doesn't already do that by itself)

Then define altReleaseDeploymentRepository and/or altSnapshotDeploymentRepository in your maven settings.xml. (Depending on your personal preference you can also define that inside a profile).

The syntax of the alternative repositories is id::layout::url where id must match the id of a server that is also defined in your settings (giving you the chance to give user/pass for that server). Layout is default Example:

<altReleaseDeploymentRepository>my.nexus::default::https://my.domain.com/nexus/content/repositories/releases/</altReleaseDeploymentRepository>
