can find-versions also work for non jar artifacts? I tried to find the versions for a published zip and I get no results. Checked the source code and it's not supported. Maven is an artifact repositoy and in essence you can store whatever artifacts there. Most of them are jars, but they don't need to be. Also: can it work for classifiers as well ? Don't use them right now, I'm asking for completion sake.

does tools-deps take into account encrypted server passwords from settings-security.xml ? Browsed the code and I did not see any references so I imagine it does not.

Is there a way I can get the latest version of an artifact ? I tried this but it does not work ( I get the older version)

:deps {com.my.group.example-artifact/load-test-data {:mvn/version "LATEST" :extension "zip"}}}}

LATEST or RELEASE should resolve metadata

I think it is subject to the once-per-day update policy though

No ways to force that other than deleting repo metadata files from m2

But that :extension is not a thing

Tools.deps is not a generic interface to Maven, it’s a tool for building classpaths

If I remember correctly updatePolicy can be configured per maven repository in pom.xml

So maybe tools.deps could have a way to configure that in deps.esn

Somewhere in :mvn/repos

Has been requested, and I even wrote the code at one point, but I’m going to resist that for now

It adds a lot of complexity to other assumptions in the code

plus LATEST or RELEASE are refs not values, yuck

@ghadi: that is life 🙂

my life is based on values 🙂

if find-versions works with :extension I can avoid using LATEST/RELEASE

I can fetch latest version and use it

If you want to get non-jars, you’re going to have to tap into a much lower point in the implementation

This is not part of the public api
