In this chapter, we focused on the Maven repository management. We started the discussion on how Maven projects use and reference repositories within the application POM files and globally use settings.xml
. Later, we discussed how to use Nexus as a repository manager and configure it as a hosted, proxy, and group repository. Finally, we concluded with a detailed discussion on the Maven repository metadata model. For more details about Nexus, you can check out the information at http://www.sonatype.com/nexus/.
In the next chapter, we will discuss the industry accepted best practices in using Maven.
