Hello

Can I just do a 'wget' against nexus to grab the latest snapshot and copy this to webserver? Is there a special "latest snapshot" link available in nexus or must I download the process the metadata
 to determine the latest one?

I had the same problem with getting the latest snapshot version (since
Maven 3 doesn't support non unique versions anymore).

http://<host>:<port>/nexus/service/local/artifact/maven/redirect?r=<repository>&g=<groupId>&a=<artifactId>&v=<version>&p=<type>
Nexus will handle the SNAPSHOT conversion to latest so you don't need
to read the metadata or anything like that.

However, how do you handle authentication? For the above url to work,
you need a valid session cookie. I'd would be ideal to have a single
http call (using wget for example) with HTTP Basic Authentication (with
SSL). Is there already a solution available for this?

Thx for any hint,
