Loading Maven dependencies from GitHub

jitpack.io — github.com

Now you can import a Java library from a GitHub repo using JitPack.

In your pom.xml:

First Add repository:

<repository>
    <id>jitpack.io</id>
    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
</repository>

Second Add dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.User</groupId>
    <artifactId>Repo name</artifactId>
    <version>Release tag</version>
</dependency>

Note : for release tag

Before we can use release tag as a version in dependency, we have to create release tag first.

$ git tag -a 0.0.1-SNAPSHOT -m "commit message"
$ git push origin --tag

Example : I have a Repository : https://github.com/sovannarithcheav/artifact-demo.git, So the dependency should look like this :

<dependency>
 <groupId>com.github.sovannarithcheav</groupId>
 <artifactId>artifact-demo</artifactId>
 <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

It’s easy, right? 😜
