From what I understand, Maven is a build dependency manager, but not a package manager the way CPAN is. I'm looking for a central place to find packages that do everything. "ohh you need to interact with AWS, here's the package" type stuff.
- strlen 17y agoThere's a bunch of maven repositories (usually googling '+"library name" +"maven" +"pom.xml" works), but I haven't yet found anything like CPAN's search website. mvn:create can bring up an interface that's very smilar to CPAN's shell. What needs to be done is a shell that allows functionality such as "search /amazon/" or "search guice, jersey" or "info google-collections". Scala would be a great choice to make sort of a "REPL" shell :-)

- mosburger 17y agoHeh - I'm working on building such a monster now. :) Until mine is ready, you can try mvnrepository.com. The reason that I'm building my own is because mvnrepository.com is often down, slow, and is not very easy to use. But it's there until I'm finished with mine!
