Where can I find the PostGresql 9.2 JDBC 4 drivers in a maven repo?

Question

Looking at the maven central repository the newest jdbc4 driver available for PostGresql is only the 9.1 driver

http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/postgresql/postgresql/9.1-901.jdbc4

There is a newer file called "postgresql-9.2-1002.jdbc4.jar" available on http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html but it has not been released to Maven central.

Answer 1

It seems like PostgreSQL has updated their groupId to org.postgresql instead of postgresql.

So now it is possible to use maven directly (mvnrepository.com):

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
    <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
    <version>9.2-1002-jdbc4</version>
</dependency>

Answer 2

Following dependency description works for me:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
    <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
    <version>9.2-1002-jdbc4</version>
</dependency>

Answer 3

(This answer is now outdated; the jars have been released to maven under the groupid org.postgresql. See more recent answers for details.)

You can simply install the driver to your local ~/.m2 repository. See the maven documentation and this question.

mvn install:install-file \
  -DgroupId=postgresql \
  -DartifactId=postgresql \
  -Dpackaging=jar \
  -Dversion=9.2-1002.jdbc4 \
  -Dfile=postgresql-9.2-1002.jdbc4.jar \
  -DgeneratePom=true

Alternately, if you're using Sonatype Nexus to manage repositories and caching - which I highly recommend - then you can add the jar to a locally maintained repository in your Nexus instance.
