----------------------------------
Summary: Can't copy dependency from a 3rd party repository
Key: MNG-7108
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7108
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Dependencies
Affects Versions: 3.6.3
Environment: Linux (fc33)
Reporter: Pawel Veselov
I can't seem to be able to copy a dependency that I previously downloaded from
a 3rd party repository, when referring to it using metaversion.
This doesn't work, unless I refer to the version directly in the :copy
invocation:
{noformat}
$ # rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/org/openconext/ # clean up
$ mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:3.1.2:get \
-DremoteRepositories=excelfore.public::::https://dev-esync.excelfore.com/artifactory/excelfore.public
\
-Dartifact=org.openconext:mujina-idp:LATEST:jar
$ mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:3.1.2:copy \
-Dartifact=org.openconext:mujina-idp:LATEST:jar -DoutputDirectory=/tmp
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal

(this is from a real public repo)
I figure this has something to do with the fact that plugin has no knowledge of
the repository ID, and needs it to find the right metadata file. So maybe the
plugin should have "repositoryId" property that can be supplied to it so it
knows which metadata file to check.
