Nexus supports Mass upload of artifacts?

Question

I wanted to know if we can have mass upload of artifacts to the repository in Nexus.

Answer 1

You can do it in a variety of ways:

• Use the Nexus artifact upload page (note this only works for multiple artifacts with the same groupId and artifactId).
• Set up a script, with multiple invocations of the maven-deploy-plugin's deploy-file goal, one for each artifact.
• If you have access to the file system, you can copy the files directly into [sonatype-work]/storage/[repository-name]. If you do this, set up scheduled tasks to rebuild the metadata and reindex the repository.

Answer 2

Use the Nexus Repository Conversion Tool to create Release and Snapshot folders based on your local .m2 folder and then move the contents of those folders into [sonatype-work]/storage/[repository-name].
