Allow Maven URLs to be configured to resolve external bundles ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBOSGI-614 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBOSGI-614 Project: JBoss OSGi Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Repository Affects Versions: Continuing Environment: All Reporter: Ulrich Romahn Assignee: Thomas Diesler Fix For: JBossOSGi 2.0.0 Currently, JBoss OSGi allows to provide a Maven URI for a package which will then be resolved by the deployer according to the following rules: 1. check if the artifact is present in a local Maven repo (.m2) 2. if not, download the artifact from a remote Maven repo Currently, the class MavenArtifactRepository has two Maven repository URLs hardcoded: JBOSS_NEXUS_BASE = "http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public"; MAVEN_CENTRAL_BASE = "http://repo1.maven.org/maven2"; It should be possible to configure those URLs using some configuration mechanism. This is especially important in a real production environment where access to external URLs may be blocked by a firewall and an internal Nexus repo should be used to proxy a "stable set" of artifacts to be used for production. The following configuration options should be possible: 1. as it is right now 2. switch off external resolution completely. Only artifacts currently present on the local filesystem (.m2) should be resolved and loaded 3. Configure Maven URLs in addition to the hardcoded ones above 4. Configure Maven URLs as complete replacements to the hardcoded ones above
