Using gradle, I am consuming a build from an archiva repository. One of the jars (javax.jms_1.1.0.200810061358.jar
) has the following content:
about.html
about_files
LICENSE.txt
jms.jar
META-INF
MANIFEST.MF
The jar I need is actually the jms.jar inside this javax.jms_1.1.0.200810061358.jar
The only way I've been able to consume this jar is by pulling jms.jar
out of the repository's javax.jms_1.1.0.200810081358.jar
and saving it
to the file system and consuming it via:
repositories { flatDir: my_dir_with_jms.jar_in_it}
someone on the gradle list suggested using an Ivy packager resolver.
I looked at this link and was
left very confused. I do have other ivy resolvers set up like this:
addIvyPattern 'http://archivaserver:8080/archiva/repository/osgi-internal/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/ivy_[revision].xml'
addArtifactPattern
"http://archivaserver:8080/archiva/repository/osgi-official/[organisation]/[organisation]/[module]_[revision](-[classifier]).[ext]"
Anyone know of a good solution to this?
Resolving a dependency inside a dependency would require the use of the ivy packager resolver.
I've never configured the package resolver from within Gradle, but I think it would work something like the following (Referencing webpage)
repositories {
add(new org.apache.ivy.plugins.resolver.packager.PackagerResolver()) {
name = 'local Ivy packagers'
buildRoot = file("${gradle.gradleUserHomeDir}/packager/build")
resourceCache = file("${gradle.gradleUserHomeDir}/packager/cache")
addIvyPattern "file:///${project.rootDir}/ivy/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/ivy.xml"
addArtifactPattern "file:///${project.rootDir}/ivy/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/packager.xml"
}
}
dependencies {
compile group: 'org.myorg', name: 'jms', version: '1.1.0.200810061358'
}
The resolver requires the following files for the declared dependency:
ivy/org.myorg/jms/1.1.0.200810061358/ivy.xml
ivy/org.myorg/jms/1.1.0.200810061358/packager.xml
ivy.xml
Describes the module and in this case declares what artifacts are published:
<ivy-module version="2.0">
<info organisation="org.myorg" module="jms" revision="1.1.0.200810061358" status="release"/>
<publications>
<artifact name="jms" type="jar"/>
</publications>
</ivy-module>
packager.xml
Describes where the enclosing archive is located and instructions on how to extract jms.jar:
<packager-module version="1.0">
<resource dest="archive" url="http://archivaserver:8080/archiva/repository/??/javax.jms_1.1.0.200810061358.jar" sha1="????"/>
<build>
<move file="archive/jms.jar" tofile="artifacts/jars/jms.jar"/>
</build>
</packager-module>
The content under the build tag is used to generate an ANT script. For more details read the "Packaging instructions" section of the ivy documentation
