gomavenproxy

gomavenproxy

A small HTTP server to let users transparently upload Maven artifacts to an FTP server.

Project stability: successfully tested in a production environment.

Setup

• copy gomavenproxy.example.yml and edit it
• run gomavenproxy -config gomavenproxy.yml

Usage

For a build.gradle file:

repositories {
    maven {
        url 'http://gomaven.proxy:12345'
        credentials {
            username "ftp_username"
            password "ftp_password"
        }
    }
}

For a build.gradle.kts file:

repositories {
    maven {
        url = uri("http://gomaven.proxy:12345")
        credentials {
            username = "ftp_username"
            password = "ftp_password"
        }
    }
}

Rationale

Maven does have a Wagon plugin to support deploying artifacts by FTP.

Gradle supports publishing modules by FTP with the deprecated maven plugin, which in particular does not support Gradle Module Metadata.

For the new maven-publish plugin, only a few protocols are supported, but not FTP.

This HTTP to FTP proxy lets you use maven-publish on an FTP repository by proxying it as an HTTP repository.
