Is it possible to upload/download an entire directory and all of the sub-directories within it to/from a Nexus repository server?
In case you want to actually deploy a hierarchy of files, I hacked together a solution using GMaven (groovy embedded in maven).
Use the pom below, supply a few properties and hit mvn install
.
The folder will be crawled and all files inside it will be deployed using an artifactId taken from the relative path. e.g.
Given the base folder
c:\a\b\c
the file
c:\a\b\c\def\ghi\jkl.mno
would have the artifactId def-ghi-jkl
and the packaging mno
, this can of course be changed to something else.
The repository info will be taken from the pom, so you need to supply a distributionManagement element in the pom.
Here it is (a lot of this code is taken from the deploy:deploy-file mojo):
<project
