I have created a pull request that updates the GuvnorM2Repository code to deploy to a
remote repository if one is configured in the <distributionManagement> section of a
pom in the workbench. If the repository requires authentication the system will fetch the
credentials by repository id from the settings.xml file.
I tested this publishing to both a snapshot and a release repository. Both require
credentials and both worked (thanks to mfusco).
One question:
Currently it does not publish to the default profile repositories in the settings.xml.
Should it? In other words, if the user has a default profile in their settings should
Guvnor go ahead and deploy to the configured repository? This would fit with normal maven
operation but I don't know if the user would expect the workbench code to be handled
differently.
If you guys want Guvnor to publish to the settings.xml repositories automatically let me
know and I can make that update as well.
Once the above is decided I'll update the documentation and create a pull request for
that as well.
