[dash-dev] New nexus (maven) repositories

[Andrew Ross]

Hi Everyone,

We have a couple of components we'd like to share via. nexus
(maven.eclipse.org). As well, there are other projects such as Stardust
for one example that are moving to CBI and interested in a repository on
maven.eclipse.org.

I realize I am probably asking a stupid question, please forgive - what
is the process to request a repository & get access to it?

Thank you kindly,

Andrew

I would caution against using maven.eclipse.org in any CBI related
work unless maven.eclipse.org is an officially supported service
provided by Eclipse Foundation.

Igor,

We've talked about this but I'll share this publicly so others know
where I stand. That's a fair caution.

I would like to see Nexus become a well managed service provided by the
Eclipse Foundation. Frankly I think we need it to satisfy the new
requirements imposed by our working groups. There are at least a few
significant benefits that would be really handy from a community
developers perspective.

There's enough yet to be figured out, issues to be sorted, and enough
work to be done, that it's going to take some time to get there.

In the meantime, I'd like to attempt to leverage maven.eclipse.org. If
nothing else, it'll help us learn more about what we need the official
system to do.

The biggest issue is disk space. I really don't understand why the
server needs 18GB of disk space. How many packages do we have installed?

When I start converting all the Eclipse bundles using mt4e, I'll
probably need 2-3 GB and that's for about 3000 bundles. So 18GB of space
should be plenty.

I ran du over night and got this:

5,3G repo1
186M repo2
4,6G Sonatype

Why are those repos so big and how can we make sure nexus doesn't fill
the disk?
