Eclipse Nexus Instance
The Eclipse Nexus instance is hosted at: https://repo.eclipse.org
This repository allows Eclipse projects to publish their build artifacts into a centralized repository hosted by EMO.
Notes:
- Snapshots older than 30-days are automatically removed on a weekly basis
Pulling artifacts from Nexus
To use repo.eclipse.org to pull artifacts for your project there are a few URLs that can be used.
Releases Group
https://repo.eclipse.org/content/groups/releases/
This URL is a top-level aggregate of all project releases repositories. This URL is recommended if you just want to pull in releases from any project hosting artifacts on repo.eclipse.org
Snapshots Group
https://repo.eclipse.org/content/groups/snapshots/
This URL is a top-level aggregate of all project snapshots repositories. This URL is useful for developers who want to pull in artifacts that may have not yet been released usually nightlies.
Project Specific Repos
Finally you can also use a project specific repo if you only want to ensure you are only pulling artifacts from specific projects. To get the URLs for these projects you can navigate to https://repo.eclipse.org/index.html#view-repositories and browse for the URL link for the specific project.
Deploying artifacts to repo.eclipse.org
To deploy artifacts to repo.eclipse.org you will need to use Hudson to configure a job for deploying your artifacts.
Before Hudson though you will need to do some setup on the Maven side to add a "distributionManagement" section to your project pom. An example below:
<distributionManagement> <repository> <id>repo.eclipse.org</id> <name>Project Repository - Releases</name> <url>https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/project-releases/</url> </repository> <snapshotRepository> <id>repo.eclipse.org</id> <name>Project Repository - Snapshots</name> <url>https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/project-snapshots/</url> </snapshotRepository> </distributionManagement>
Replace instances of the word "project" with your project's name.
Note: It is important to ensure your ID's are "repo.eclipse.org" as the Hudson instance is configured to use these IDs.
