How to push a lein localrepo of dependencies to clojars (processing.org jars)

Processing's (processing.org) basic library jars are not on clojars or maven. I have a project going with clojure and would like to upload the jars to clojars under my username. It was kind of tedious to get them into my .m2 folder one a time. I will be need to be able to access them via clojars so that others can help me with my project. How can I upload these dependencies?

lein deploy clojars doesn't upload the dependencies - all the processing library jars.

My processing localrepo is also on github stored here:

Solution

  • Thanks for your help and links so far. This is as far as I have gotten:

    I have had some success - minus the ability to sign jars and poms.

    I gotta admit though its kind of a pain. Here is the process. There must be an automated way to do this right?

    Go to your .m2/repository/group/library/version/ folder

    1. md5sum lib.jar > lib.jar.md5
    2. sha1sum lib.jar > lib.jar.sha1
    3. Change the groupId in lib.pom from

    <groupId>libgroup</groupId>

    to

    <groupId>org.clojars.username.libgroup</groupId>

    1. Add missing sections in lib.pom by hand otherwise clojars complains:

    <description>processing-libs</description> <url>http://www.processing.org</url> <scm> <tag>something relevant?</tag> <url>somewhere relevant?</url> </scm> <licenses> <license> <name/> <url/> <distribution/> </license> </licenses> <developers> <developer> <id/> <name/> <email/> </developer> </developers> <repositories> <repository> <id>clojars.org</id> <url>http://clojars.org/repo/</url> </repository> </repositories>

    1. md5sum lib.pom > lib.pom.md5
    2. sha1sum lib.pom > lib.pom.sha1
    3. scp lib* [email protected]:

    Here they are in github (the md5 and sha1 files not included of course):

    https://github.com/originalsurfmex/originalsurfmex_m2/tree/master/repository/processing/core/2.1

    https://github.com/originalsurfmex/originalsurfmex_m2/tree/master/repository/processing/gluegen-rt/2.1

    Here they are in clojars:

    https://clojars.org/org.clojars.originalsurfmex.processing/core

    https://clojars.org/org.clojars.originalsurfmex.processing/gluegen-rt

    Before I go ahead and add all of these libs I have two concerns:

    1. I have polluted clojars.org my mistakes --> https://clojars.org/users/originalsurfmex

    2. Is it gonna be a waste or a deal breaker that my jars and poms aren't signed? I can't seem to figure out how to sign them. I have SSH and PGP setup on clojar.org and scp runs just fine.
