Configuring AuthenticationĪrtifactory requires user authentication in three cases: Using Mirrors for Repositories in the Apache Maven documentation. You can either check Mirror Any in the Maven Settings screen when generating your settings.xml file, or you can manually insert the following:įor more information on using mirrors please refer to This ensures no unexpected requests directly to Maven are introduced by such POMs. (While it does not adhere to best practices, it is not uncommon for POMs to reference Maven repositories directly). In addition to overriding built-in Maven repositories, you can use the Mirror Any setting to redirect all requests to a Maven repository through Artifactory, including those defined inside POMs of plug-ins and third party dependencies. We recommend that you fine tune Artifactory to search through a more specific set of repositories by defining a dedicated virtual (or local) repository, and configure Maven to use that to resolve artifacts instead. You can configure Maven to run with the Default Global Repository so that any request for an artifact will go through Artifactory which will search through all of the local and remote repositories defined in the system. To override the built-in central and snapshot repositories of Maven, you need to ensure that Artifactory is correctly configured so that no request is ever sent directly to them. Manually Overriding the Built-in Repositories Once downloaded, settings are generated according to your own logic and can automatically include user authentication information.įor more details, please refer to the Provisioning Build Tool Settings under Filtered Resources. You can deploy and provision a dynamic settings template for your users. Once you have configured the settings for Maven, click Generate Settings to generate and save the settings.xml file. For more details please refer to Additional Mirror Any Setup When set, you can select a repository that should mirror any other repository.
