Hi,
I'm reposting on this thread as I still cannot get Karaf to pull in the latest
bundle from my remote repository. Karaf always appears to look in $HOME/.m2
first so consequently I have to delete the local bundle first to force Karaf to
look at the remote. This is my org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg file:
#
# Default this to false. It's just weird to use undocumented repos
#
org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.useFallbackRepositories=false
#
# Uncomment if you don't wanna use the proxy settings
# from the Maven conf/settings.xml file
#
# org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.proxySupport=false
#
# Comma separated list of repositories scanned when resolving an artifact.
# Those repositories will be checked before iterating through the
# below list of repositories and even before the local repository
# A repository url can be appended with zero or more of the following flags:
# @snapshots : the repository contains snaphots
# @noreleases : the repository does not contain any released artifacts
#
# The following property value will add the system folder as a repo.
#
org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.defaultRepositories=\
<remote_snapshot_repo_and_IP_and_id_removed>@snapshots@noreleases, \
file:${karaf.home}/${karaf.default.repository}@id=system.repository@snapshots, \
file:${karaf.data}/kar@id=kar.repository@multi@snapshots, \
file:${karaf.base}/${karaf.default.repository}@id=child.system.repository@snapshots,
\
<remote_repo_and_IP_and_id_removed>, \
<remote_snapshot_repo_and_IP_and_id_removed>@snapshots@noreleases
# Use the default local repo (e.g.~/.m2/repository) as a "remote" repo
org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.defaultLocalRepoAsRemote=true
#
# Comma separated list of repositories scanned when resolving an artifact.
# The default list includes the following repositories:
# http://repo1.maven.org/maven2@id=central

#

Any help appreciated

JT,
I also always set
org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.globalUpdatePolicy=always
In org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg when I'm working with snapshots.
Just like how local maven has an update policy of 24hours for pulling snapshots
from a remote repo, so does Karaf.
This way, every time I run bundle:update, it checks my remote repo for new
snapshots.
Take a look at https://ops4j1.jira.com/wiki/display/paxurl/Mvn+Protocol for
more info.
Regards,
Ed

Hi JT,
it depends what you want.
By default, Karaf fist looks into the local Maven repository ($HOME/.m2)
and goes to remote repositories if the artifact is not found locally:
it's the regular "Maven" behaviour.
If you want to check first on remote repository, then the local
repository has to be consider as a remote one.

Hi,
I just wanted to clarify how to set-up repositories in
org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg
I have 3 machines. Machine A runs an instance of Karaf. Machine B
contains my Apache Archiva instance from which I pull bundles. I develop
the bundles on machine C.
I develop snapshot bundles on machine C and I push them to Archiva on
machine B. I then install them in my Karaf instance (machine A) using
the 'install mvn' command and have configured org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg
to include the URL of the Apache Archiva of machine B. If it is the
first time I have installed a snapshot bundle in the Karaf instance it
retrieves it as expected from Archiva on machine B. However if I update
the snapshot and push to archive, when I update the Karaf instance it
does not refer to Archiva but uses the snapshot held in the local .m2
repository.
If I set org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.defaultLocalRepoAsRemote=true then it
appears to work as I require i.e. the latest snapshot is retrieved from
Archiva on machine B. Is this the correct way to achieve what I want,
i.e. always force Karaf to look at my remote repositories especially for
snapshots and where does the local repository appear in the order of
remotes if the above config. is set?
Thanks
jt
