Visit my.sonatype.com for documentation on Nexus Repository version 2.
Developing extensions or clients for Nexus Repository Pro may require access to Sonatype's private Nexus development repository.
Before you begin, you need:
- A valid Nexus Repository Pro license
- Sonatype support account credentials. These are the credentials you use to log in to https://support.sonatype.com and they must be associated with your Sonatype license
What can I access?
Closed source binary/runtime jar and javadoc files will be downloadable, primarily those under a com.sonatype group id. Source jars remain unavailable.
Configure Access to the Sonatype Nexus Private Development Repository
There is a repository that can be added to your Nexus Repository instance that will allow you to create plugins that interact with Nexus Repository Pro or OSS. The repository URL is:
https://repository.sonatype.org/content/groups/private-nexus-dev/
Here's what you'll need to do:
- Create a Maven 2 releases proxy repository in your Nexus Repository instance for the above URL. Be sure to put your support account credentials into the "authentication (optional)" part of the proxy repository's configuration - credentials are necessary to access this repository.
- Add this proxy repository to your "public" group repository.
