How to manually deploy artifacts in Nexus Repository Manager OSS 3

Question

After installing Nexus Repository Manager OSS 3 I do not see option Artifact Upload to upload artifacts through web page.

In Nexus Repository Manager OS

Answer 1

To use mvn deploy:deploy-file, must add ~./m2/settings.xml

<settings>
  <servers>
    <server>
      <id>nexus-repo</id>
      <username>admin</username>
      <password>admin123</password>
    </server>
  </servers>
</settings>

command:

mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=com.example \
                                       -DartifactId=my-app \
                                       -Dversion=2.0.0 \
                                       -Dpackaging=jar \
                                       -Dfile=my-app.jar \
                                       -DgeneratePom=true \
                                       -DrepositoryId=nexus-repo \
                                       -Durl=http://localhost:8081/repository/maven-releases/

Answer 2

You can upload artifacts via their native publishing capabilities (e.g. maven deploy, npm publish).

You can also upload artifacts to "raw" repositories via a simple curl request, e.g.

curl --fail -u admin:admin123 --upload-file foo.jar 'http://my-nexus-server.com:8081/repository/my-raw-repo/'
