Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Adding jar files
Gary,
Is this your own private library or some 3rd party tool? They
usually have different approaches which are all appropriate.
The options are basically the following
1.) try to find it as a dependency available in mvnrepository.com
(i.e. its available in the maven central repo and can be gotten
already from there)
2.) install a copy in your local repository
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-install-plugin/usage.html
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<location of file> \
-DgroupId=<some-group-id-for-your-jar> \
-DartifactId=<some-name-for-your-jar>
-Dversion=<version-of-your-jar>
and then reference in your pom.xml via
<dependency>
<artifactId>some-name-for-your-jar</artifactId>
<groupId>some-name-for-your-jar</groupId>
<version>version-of-your-jar</version>
</dependency>
3.) probably the easiest (and most effective if you need to deploy
and test on multiple machines locally)
<dependency>
<artifactId>some-name-for-your-jar</artifactId>
<groupId>some-name-for-your-jar</groupId>
<version>version-of-your-jar</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>/path/to/your/file.jar</systemPath> <!-- put this
inside the project the dependency is required within. -->
</dependency>
The Last, while easiest, isn't very portable and you;d not be able
to publish the project you use it in into a maven repository for
reuse by others. The most permanent solution is to find a way to
have it deployed into the maven central repository so you can do
(1) and all the users of your library/tool can do (1) as well.
Hope this helps,
Mark
