Re: [jbossdeveloper] <repository /> on quickstarts pom.xml

Hi all, On a look for a continuous improvement on developer user experience and also because we have been constantly asked to support issues related to the setup of https://access.redhat.com/maven-repository to make the quickstarts work, we want to include the <repository /> definition on quickstarts pom.xml Actually the Archetypes already have the <repository /> on the pom.xml file of the generated project. The idea here is to have the <repository /> with the https://maven.repository.redhat.com/techpreview/all/ defined on every quickstarts's pom.xml file with a comment on top of it saying that this approach is not recommended but we included it so users can test the quickstarts without further setup and that it's recommended to use settings.xml. It will bring the following advantages: - It will make ease to contributors and users - Simplify the build. - Simplify the Archetype synch process / No need to inject the repo since it will come from the Quickstarts - We can add a pre-defined comment above the pom.xml repository definition to explain that we don't recommend that. - We can also add this "comment" to QSTools to check/fix it. As a roadmap for it: - We need to document that at the https://github.com/jboss-developer/jboss-developer-shared-resources - We need to update the contributing guides - We need to update QSTools to do this update on all quickstarts for us. Max, Is there any restrictions on JBDS side ? Anyone else have any objections/comments on this $subject ?
