Maven Configuration

For the following step, you'll need to identify your user directory (USER_DIR). It is usually located:

  • under Windows: USER_DIR = C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>
  • under Linux/UNIX: USER_DIR = /home/<your user name>
  • under MacOS X: USER_DIR = /Users/<your user name>

You then need to :

  • create a directory USER_DIR/.m2
  • create a settings.xml file with the following content (update the local repository location) 
<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 
                      http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">

	<localRepository>[the location where Maven should locally download files]</localRepository>

	<mirrors>
		<mirror>
			<id>argeo.org</id>
			<name>Argeo Maven Repository and Proxy</name>
			<url>http://www.argeo.org/maven/proxy</url>
			<mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
		</mirror>
	</mirrors>
</settings>

Note: under Windows you may have to create the .m2 directory via the command line since the Windows Explorer may not accept this name: 

 C:\Documents and Settings\user>mkdir .m2
