AEM Maven Repository

This OSGi Bundle turn AEM into a maven repository and provides developers access to all OSGi bundles running in Apache Felix inside the Adobe Experience Manager.

Compatible With

AEM 6.1

Even when this plugin isn't tested on AEM 6.0 or AEM 5.x, it's quite possible that it works fine with these versions. Please open a ticket on GitHub when you tested it, so I can extend the compatibility list.

HowTo Deploy

Download the latest aem-maven-repository jar file from https://github.com/sbrinkmann/aem-maven-repository/releases
Go to the Apache Felix Console http://:<4502|4503>/system/console/bundles
Select Install or Update
Select the just downloaded aem-maven-repository jar file with the file picker
Tick the Start Bundle checkbox
Hit Install or Update button to finish the deployment
