  2. Select Maven as the package type, and choose the Snapshot repository from the repository list on the left.
  3. Click Tutorial in the upper-right corner of the page.

  4. Configure the local Maven tool by following the configuration guide.
  5. Run mvn deploy to upload the Maven project.

    In the Maven CLI, access the directory where the pom.xml file of the Maven project is stored, then run the following command to upload a local JAR package: 
    mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=com.huawei -DartifactId=aopalliance -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=D:\aopalliance-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar -Durl={Maven Snapshot address} -DrepositoryId=snapshots
    • Set DgroupId, DartifactId, Dversion, and Dpackaging as required.
    • Set Dfile to the absolute path of the local JAR package.
    • Set Durl to the Maven snapshot path, which can be obtained by clicking in the following figure.

Releasing Snapshots to a Maven Repository Through CodeArts Build

  1. Log in to the Huawei Cloud console with your Huawei Cloud account.
  2. Click in the upper-left corner and choose Developer Services > CodeArts from the service list.
  3. Click Access Service. The homepage of CodeArts is displayed.
  4. Choose Services > Repo from the top menu bar.
  5. Go to Repo, open the pom.xml file, and define the GAV information of the package to be uploaded.

    • When a build task is run, CodeArts Build identifies the package properties uploaded to the Maven repository based on the definition.
    • version: Releases are uploaded by default. To upload a Snapshot, add the suffix -SNAPSHOT to the value of version, for example, 1.0-SNAPSHOT.

  6. Edit a build task in the build action Build with Maven:

    • In the command box, comment out the mvn package command (add # before the command) and uncomment the mvn deploy command (delete # before the command).
    • Click Release to Self-hosted Repos, and select Configure all POMs.

  7. Run a build task.

    After the build task is executed, you can find the generated Maven artifact in the Maven repository.
