Server details on parent repo or submodule repo when external dependency is added on submodules

Hello ,
 
In AEMaaCS, We are using submodules in our project repo. In Submodule repo ,some external dependency been added. for that they have added server username and password in cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml folder in submodule repo. While building our code in cloud, we are getting this error "
  • Maven was not able to download necessary dependencies due to an access issue. Please check any provided credentials and confirm they are valid. More details may be found in the log." . Note: I have added the password in pipeline variable. still its giving this error
Do we need to create cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml folder in our main project apart from submodule and add server details as well? Then only cloud can recognize the server and download dependency? My understanding that it can download the dependency as server details are present in submodules and dependency is added in submodule only. please confirm how to proceed. its working in my local when I add server details to m2/settings.xml file

Actually we don't have write access to submodule we use. we can only include it in our repo. So .cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml will always be there in submodule.

Skip the profile part and try with ".cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml" in parent.

It should be ok to have it in sub-module as well

Hello @amsalek4 

 

The maven repository details should be kept in .cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml of parent project.

 

You should also raise an Adobe ticket, if you have any specific usecase due to which it needs to be module specific.

    Thanks @aanchal-sikka .

     

    May I know can we keep  .cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml in parent as well as submodule. As submodule repo is being used separately for other teams, we need that in submodule as well. would that be recommended if we keep it in both places

      • Place ".cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml" in parent only, because its used by CM
      • In sub-modules, create a new profile. This profile will be disabled on cloud because of env variable env.CM_BUILD
      <profiles> <profile> <id>artifactory</id> <activation> <property> <name>!env.CM_BUILD</name> </property> <repositories> <repository> <snapshots> <enabled>true</enabled> <updatePolicy>always</updatePolicy> </snapshots> <id>snapshots</id> <name>name-of-repo</name> <url>url-of-repo</url> </repository> </repositories> <pluginRepositories> <pluginRepository> <snapshots/> <id>snapshots</id> <name>name-of-plugin-repo</name> <url>url-of-plugin-repo</url> </pluginRepository> </pluginRepositories> </profile> </profiles>

        Hi @amsalek4 
        Use pipeline variables to add server details at parent level .cloudmanager/maven/settings.xml.

        It will work at submodules level as well but always add at one place(parent)
