Working with the Apache Maven registry |
You can configure Apache Maven to publish packages to {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} and to use packages stored on {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} as dependencies in a Java project. |
{% data reusables.gated-features.packages %} |

Apache Maven registry |
{% ifversion ghec %}
[!NOTE] The Apache Maven registry is not available for {% data variables.enterprise.data_residency %}.
{% endif %}
{% data reusables.package_registry.packages-ghes-release-stage %}
{% data reusables.package_registry.admins-can-configure-package-types %}
{% data reusables.package_registry.authenticate-packages %}
{% data reusables.package_registry.authenticate-packages-github-token %}
{% data reusables.package_registry.required-scopes %}
You can authenticate to {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} with Apache Maven by editing your ~/.m2/settings.xml file to include your {% data variables.product.pat_v1 %}. Create a new ~/.m2/settings.xml file if one doesn't exist.
In the servers
tag, add a child server
tag with an id
, replacing USERNAME with your {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} username, and TOKEN with your {% data variables.product.pat_generic %}.
In the repositories
tag, configure a repository by mapping the id
of the repository to the id
you added in the server
tag containing your credentials. Replace {% ifversion ghes %}HOSTNAME with the host name of {% data variables.location.product_location %}, and{% endif %} OWNER with the name of the personal account or organization that owns the repository. Because uppercase letters aren't supported, you must use lowercase letters for the repository owner even if the {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} user or organization name contains uppercase letters.
If you want to interact with multiple repositories, you can add each repository to separate repository
children in the repositories
tag, mapping the id
of each to the credentials in the servers
tag.

{% data reusables.package_registry.default-name %} For example, {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} will publish a package named com.example:test
in a repository called OWNER/test
.
{% data reusables.package_registry.maven-package-naming-convention %}
If you would like to publish multiple packages to the same repository, you can include the URL of the repository in the <distributionManagement>
element of the pom.xml file. {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} will match the repository based on that field. Since the repository name is also part of the distributionManagement
element, there are no additional steps to publish multiple packages to the same repository.
For more information on creating a package, see the maven.apache.org documentation.
-
Edit the
distributionManagement
element of the pom.xml file located in your package directory, replacing {% ifversion ghes %}HOSTNAME with the host name of {% data variables.location.product_location %}, {% endif %}OWNER
with the name of the personal account or organization that owns the repository andREPOSITORY
with the name of the repository containing your project.{% ifversion ghes %}If your instance has subdomain isolation enabled:{% endif %}

-
Publish the package.
mvn deploy
{% data reusables.package_registry.viewing-packages %}
To install an Apache Maven package from {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}, edit the pom.xml file to include the package as a dependency. If you want to install packages from any repository for a specified repository owner, use a repository URL like https://{% ifversion fpt or ghec %}maven.pkg.github.com{% else %}maven.HOSTNAME{% endif %}/OWNER/*
. For more information on using a pom.xml file in your project, see Introduction to the POM in the Apache Maven documentation.
{% data reusables.package_registry.authenticate-step %}
-
Add the package dependencies to the
dependencies
element of your project pom.xml file, replacingcom.example:test
with your package.<dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.example</groupId> <artifactId>test</artifactId> <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version> </dependency> </dependencies>
-
Install the package.
