Is there a publicly available maven repository that hosts the Apache Tomcat binary distribution ZIPs as maven artifacts (I mean the file that can be downloaded via http://tomcat.apache.org, e.g. http://mirror.serversupportforum.de/apache/tomcat/tomcat-7/v7.0.28/bin/apache-tomcat-7.0.28.zip)?
Currently I download these distribution zips manually and put them into my Nexus repo, but I'd find it more elegant if there was such a repo that I just could add to my POMs. Does anybody else need the Tomcat distribution ZIPs within their maven build, how do you cope with this issue?
Maven is a project development management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model: builds, dependency management, documentation creation, site publication, and distribution publication are all controlled from the declarative file.
Distributions of Tomcat 7.0.35 and higher are in Maven Central under org.apache.tomcat:tomcat
with type zip
or tar.gz
.
