Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-21012:
------------------------------------
So... I have no answer here for how to use Nexus for snapshots that don't conflict
across the same x.y.z version.
And I have no answer for how to publish to the snapshots repo, with automatic unpacking
via the unzip plugin, for a deployment which doesn't have -SNAPSHOT in its name. Sure,
we could build the update site and call it 4.3.0.Beta5 instead of 4.3.0-SNAPSHOT, but then
it gets pushed to the non-public staging Nexus repo for RELEASE (which Jenkins can't
directly push to, afaict), not the public snapshots repo.
I can currently only think of two possible ways around this:
* upversion every time we do a milestone (instead of 4.3.0.Beta1 then 4.3.0.Beta2, we
would do 4.3.0 then 4.3.1)
* freeze master branch builds until the milestone is built, respun if needed, and
released.
IMHO neither of these are viable solutions (too much churn, too likely to screw up if a
job is accidentally turned back on), so we have no choice but to remove deployment to
nexus for JBT component sites.
One last option I can see is to figure out a way to convince Jenkins that when it wants to
push to /staging/ it REALLY means /snapshots/... perhaps with a Maven config override or
settings.xml file?
[~mickael_istria] do you know a way to force Maven to push a non-SNAPSHOT versioned
artifact to /snapshots/ instead of /staging/ ?
Why do we deploy JBT components to Nexus snapshots repo?

Key: JBIDE-21012
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-21012
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build, updatesite
Affects Versions: 4.3.0.Final, 4.4.0.Alpha1
Reporter: Nick Boldt
Assignee: Nick Boldt
Fix For: 4.3.1.Beta1, 4.4.0.Alpha1
Currently, we deploy our x.y.z-SNAPSHOT update sites to the JBoss Nexus snapshots repo.
But other than Locus and the Browsersim Standalone zip, we don't ever use these
artifacts, so they just:
* eat disk space in Nexus
* consume time/resources in Jenkins
Since we have the custom profile
deploy-to-jboss.org in place for all our artifacts, why
don't we set *maven.deploy.skip=true* in the parent pom for all the projects (except
of course Locus and Browsersim Standalone, which would use maven.deploy.skip=false) ?
