This looks promising.
You happen to know if I can use it to only download the dependencies? I don't
want to build a project because this downloads a bunch of maven plugins, which
get mixed with the dependencies :(

Hi,
I am working on a requirement to resolve and download the transitive
closure of a set of maven artifacts. The plan is to use a pom.xml with
"<packaging>pom</packaging>". That pom will contain the set of artifacts as
dependencies together with some repository definitions from where the
artifacts can be downloaded. Than I need to pass this pom into my software
and do the maven magic. I can't use maven itself - what I need are the
pieces of maven that parse poms, resolve artifact dependencies and download
from repositories.
I discovered that the maven ant tasks do exactly this job. They ant tasks
jar contains the relevant pieces of Maven plus relatively little Ant code to
set it all up and give it a pom.xml. Perfect! Except I don't need ant either
- I need to do the whole process programatically with no other files
involved than the initial pom.xml. I need to pass the Proxy configuration to
the maven wagon directly for example. So I set out to extract just the
"dependencies" ant task and than I plan to strip all Ant code to obtain the
"pure" importer logic.
But before I do all that I am asking you good people if there is an easier
way - - has someone done this before?
- is there a single Jar out there that contains the relevant pieces of
Maven in pure form that is intended for programmatic use?
Cheers,
Todor
