To manage Maven assets, you can enable the Maven library
in IBM® Rational® Asset Manager.
The Maven library is collection of asset types and relationships.
Before you begin
To enable the
Maven library,
you must be a repository administrator.
The mvn client
can integrate with Rational Asset Manager by using the Maven repository.
The mvn client is installed by default on typical
Linux operating systems.
Procedure
- On the Rational Asset Manager web
client home page, log on with an account that has master administrative
permissions for the repository.
- Click Administration.
- On the sidebar, click Libraries.
Important: If the Maven library is already enabled
on the server, you cannot import the library again. Continue to the
next step.
If the Maven library was imported but not enabled, in
the list of libraries, click the version number of the Maven library.
Then, continue to step 7
- Click Import Existing Library. The Import Library window opens.
- Select Select a built-in library,
and then select Maven from the list.
- Click OK.
- Confirm that the information in
the Maven library does not conflict with assets or metadata that are
in the repository or that are controlled by other libraries on the
page for the Maven library. Then, in the Library Actions sidebar,
click Enable. The assets,
asset types, and asset attributes for the Maven library are enabled
on your repository.
- Click Administration to
return to the list of communities in the repository.
Results
After you activate the library, the Group.Id attribute
and the POM Generation policy are available
for assets in your repository.
Note: Only Maven 2 is supported.
