This document describes the conventions and rationale for the maven groupIds, artifactIds, and repository layout used by the Fedora Repository Project.

Maven GroupIds and ArtifactIds

General Conventions

• groupId:
  • identifies the project responsible for publishing the artifacts
  • begins with org.projectname, which corresponds directly to a domain name under the project's control
• artifactId
  • identifies the artifact released by the project.

org.fedorarepo

This is the groupId reserved for software that is either:

• A core artifact of the Fedora Repository Project.
  • In this case, by convention, the artifactId begins with fedorarepo-
• A dependency of the Fedora Repository Project that does not yet exist in a public maven repository, and was therefore packaged by the Fedora Repository team.

Maven Repositories

We currently host a set of publicly-accessible repositories using Nexus.

DuraSpace Releases

Contains officially released artifacts that are both authored and packaged by the same DuraSpace project.

DuraSpace Snapshots

Snapshots for above.

URL: https://fedora-commons.org/m2/content/repositories/snapshots

DuraSpace ThirdParty

Artifacts not otherwise available in a public maven repository.  The groupId used for any of these artifacts identifies the DuraSpace project that authored the pom -- not the project that authored the software.
