In my POM file, I'm specifying two repositories:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>myid</id>
<url>http://url1</url>
</repository>
<repository>
<id>myid</id>
<url>http://url2</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
So, from the Maven documentation, I got the impression that the id
element should cross-reference with a settings.xml
server
entry, to specify authentication information. Both http://url1
and http://url2
, in my case, require the very same authentication data; that is why I'm using the same id
for both.
Still, Maven complains, saying that the id
element must be unique.
What gives? What exactly is that purpose of the id
element? I know (for sure) that Maven uses it to get authentication data - which is why things work when I only specify one repository. Why do I have to duplicate my authentication data? what am I missing?
An identity repository is a data store where information about users and groups in a company or organization is stored. The Access Manager Identity Repository Framework and related APIs are a model by which plug-ins can be written that allow communication with different types of identity repositories.
A repository in Maven holds build artifacts and dependencies of varying types. There are exactly two types of repositories: local and remote: the local repository is a directory on the computer where Maven runs. It caches remote downloads and contains temporary build artifacts that you have not yet released.
groupId This element indicates the unique identifier of the organization or group that created the project. The groupId is one of the key identifiers of a project and is typically based on the fully qualified domain name of your organization. For example org. apache. maven.
Maven just goes through the list and looks into all the repositories. It is not possible to tie dependencies to special repositories.
ID has to be unique. Use 2 login configurations in your settings.xml.
