It doesn't actually install the artifact in the local Maven2 repo. If you want to install it, you can do something along the lines of: google_artifact = artifact('google:google-collect:jar:1.0').tap do |a| unless a.exist? google_zip = download "target/google-collect-1.0.zip" => ' http://google-collections.googlecode.com/files/google-collect-1.0.zip' google_jar = file("target/zip/google-collect-1.0/google-collect-1.0.jar" => unzip('target/zip'=>google_zip)) google_jar.invoke a.from(google_jar) a.install end end > And by the way, I'm giving a presentation on Buildr in Stockholm, > Sweden next week since I think Buildr is so good :) > > http://jwsbuildr10.eventbrite.com/ (In Swedish) > That's awesome!
