Maven repositories in Gemfile

Ruby JRuby
1

Hi people,

Is there any way to add maven repositories in the Gemfile?

I’m trying to do something like this:

$ cat Gemfile

source “mvn:http://repo.typesafe.com/typesafe/releases/”
gem “mvn:com.typesafe.akka:akka-actor”

much better to use jbundler GitHub - mkristian/jbundler: bundler support for jars for jruby to
manage jar dependencies in a consistent way.

regards,
Kristian

Thanks for the gem. It can load the Akka jars from the original
repository.
I uploaded the files to Akka on JRuby · GitHub , if someone is
curious.

I wonder how official is (or will be) the jbundler gem.

P.S: Now I’m having problems using Akka directly from JRuby, but that
problems are not for this thread.

that depends greatly on the jruby team and whether or not they want to
promote jbundler.

the current maven-gems from jruby can not deal with situations like
joda-time-2.x is backward compatible to joda-time-1.6.x among other
short comings and problems.
