Proxy settings with ivy...
- by user315228
Hi,
I have an issue where in I have defined dependancies in ivy.xml on our internal corporate svn. I am able to access this svn site without any proxy task in ant. While my dependencies resides on ibiblio, that’s something outside our corporate, and needs proxy inorder to download something. I am facing problem using ivy here:
I have following in build.xml
<target name="proxy"
                    <property name="proxy.host" value="xyz.proxy.net"/
                    <property name="proxy.port" value="8443"/
                   <setproxy proxyhost="${proxy.host}" proxyport="${proxy.port}"/
                </target  
            <!-- resolve the dependencies of stratus -->
            <target name="resolveTestDependency" depends="testResolve, proxy" description="retrieve test dependencies with ivy">
                                            <ivy:settings file="stratus-ivysettings.xml" />
                                            <ivy:retrieve conf="test" pattern="${jars}/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"/><!--pattern here specifies where do you want to download lib to?-->                                          
            </target>
            <target name=" testResolve ">
                            <ivy:settings file="stratus-ivysettings.xml" />
                            <ivy:resolve conf="test" file="stratus-ivy.xml"/>
            </target>
Following is the excerpt from stratus-ivysettings.xml
<resolvers
                                <!-- here you define your file in private machine not on the repo (e.g. jPricer.jar or edgApi.jar)--
                                <!-- This we will use a url nd not local file system.. --
                                <url name="privateFS"
                                                <ivy pattern="http://xyz.svn.com/ivyRepository/ [organisation]/ivy/ivy.xml"/
                                </url
.
.
.
                                <url name="public" m2compatible="true"
                                                <artifact pattern="http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"/
                                </url

So as can be seen here for getting ivy.xml, I don’t need any proxy as its within our own network which cant be accesses when I set proxy. But on the other hand I am using ibiblio as well which is external to our network and works only with proxy. So above build.xml wont work in that case. Can somebody help here.
I don’t need proxy while getting ivy.xml (as if I have proxy, ivy wont be able to find ivy file behind proxy from within the network), and I just need it when my resolver goes to public url.
