mvn clean package -PbuildKar

If everything checks out, the bundle for apk should be available in the target folder

Build with Docker

docker build -t nexus-repository-apk .

Run as a Docker container

docker run -d -p 8081:8081 --name nexus-repository-apk nexus-repository-apk

For further information like how to persist volumes check out the GitHub repo for our official image.

The application will now be available from your browser at http://localhost:8081

After allowing some time to spin up, the application will be available from your browser at http://localhost:8081.

To read the generated admin password for your first login to the web UI, you can use the command below against the running docker container:

docker exec -it nexus-repository-apk cat /nexus-data/admin.password && echo

Using apk With Nexus Repository Manager 3

We have detailed instructions on how to get started here!

Compatibility with Nexus Repository Manager 3 Versions

The table below outlines what version of Nexus Repository the plugin was built against

Plugin Version Nexus Repository Version
v0.0.1 3.19.0-01
v0.0.8 3.23.0-03
v0.0.12 3.28.0-01
v0.0.18 3.30.0-01
v0.0.19 3.31.0-01
v0.0.24 3.38.0-01
v0.0.26 3.41.0-01

If a new version of Nexus Repository is released and the plugin needs changes, a new release will be made, and this table will be updated to indicate which version of Nexus Repository it will function against. This is done on a time available basis, as this is community supported. If you see a new version of Nexus Repository, go ahead and update the plugin and send us a PR after testing it out!

All released versions can be found here.

Installing the plugin

There are a range of options for installing the apk plugin. You'll need to build it first, and then install the plugin with the options shown below:

Permanent Install

Thanks to some upstream work in Nexus Repository, it's become a LOT easier to install a plugin. To install the apk plugin, follow these steps:

Once you've done this, go ahead and either restart Nexus Repo, or go ahead and start it if it wasn't running to begin with.

You should see apk (proxy) in the available Repository Recipes to use, if all has gone according to plan :)

Temporary Install

Installations done via the Karaf console will be wiped out with every restart of Nexus Repository. This is a good installation path if you are just testing or doing development on the plugin.

Other Permanent Install Options

There are two other outdated options for Permanent Installation that can be found in the Composer Community Format's (more) Permanent Install and (most) Permanent Install instructions. Replace all references to Composer with apk.

The Fine Print

It is worth noting that this is NOT SUPPORTED by Sonatype, and is a contribution of ours to the open source community (read: you!)

Don't worry, using this community item does not "void your warranty". In a worst case scenario, you may be asked by the Sonatype Support team to remove the community item in order to determine the root cause of any issues.

Remember:

Phew, that was easier than I thought. Last but not least of all:

Have fun creating and using this plugin and the Nexus platform, we are glad to have you here!
