Maven mirror consulted after, rather than instead of, archetypeRepository URL
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ARCHETYPE-366
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-366
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Generator
Affects Versions: 2.0
Environment: Ubuntu 10.04, JDK 6.
Reporter: Jesse Glick
Priority: Minor
I have a local Nexus instance running, with a mirror of Central, and in
{{settings.xml}}:
{noformat}
<mirror>
<id>central</id>
<mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
<url>.../content/repositories/central/</url>
</mirror>
{noformat}
This works fine for normal Maven operations. However, {{archetype:generate}}
tries to download from the public repo _first_. So when I am online, after
typing this:
{noformat}
rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/org/codehaus/mojo/archetypes test
mvn -DarchetypeVersion=1.2 -Darchetype.interactive=false -DgroupId=test
-DarchetypeArtifactId=osgi-archetype
-DarchetypeRepository=http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/ -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.codehaus.mojo.archetypes -Dbasedir=/tmp -Dpackage=test
-DartifactId=test --batch-mode archetype:generate
{noformat}
I see:
{noformat}

with no mention of Nexus; when I am offline:

{noformat}
once this resource is cached in the Nexus mirror repo. (Since the online
command does not ask Nexus, it normally is _not_ cached there and offline
project creation simply fails; to force Nexus to cache it, I need to ask Maven
to download it as a dep of something.)
If I do not specify an explicit {{archetypeRepository}} then I get
{noformat}
[INFO] Archetype repository missing. Using the one from
[org.codehaus.mojo.archetypes:osgi-archetype:1.2] found in catalog remote
{noformat}
and Nexus is consulted first, but this parameter is needed as a workaround for
ARCHETYPE-344.
One complicating factor with this example is that the 1.2 release of the
archetype does not seem to be present in the Central index; I have no clue why.
(It was released on February 15, i.e. more than three weeks ago, and my
understanding is that the index is rebuilt weekly.) May not have anything to do
with this bug, though.
