问题
I run my own little Maven repo for some open source. I have no dedicated server so I use a Google code repository, deploy to file system and then commit and push. Works perfect for me.
But some Maven tools are looking for a nexus-maven-repository-index.properties and the index (in GZ). I would like to generate this index to
- get rid of the warning that it's not here
- Maven doesn't try the repo for artefacts that are not there.
How can I do that? Is there a tool (Java main) that is able to generate an index? Also tips how to use the proper Nexus Jars with a little commandline tool are welcome.

You can use the Maven Indexer CLI to product the index directly, but why bother hosting your own repo when OSS projects can use a hosted one for free?

I came across this post while I was searching for a solution to add a local repository to my Maven project using IntelliJ Idea.
Since Sonatype changed their paths and reorganized the downloads since the last post, here is an updated step-by-step tutorial to get your repository indexed for use with IntelliJ Idea:
- Download the latest stand-alone indexer from here.
- Extract it somewhere and go into this directory
- From the console, run this command:
export REPODIR=/path/to/your/local/repo/ && java org.sonatype.nexus.index.cli.NexusIndexerCli -r $REPODIR -i $REPODIR/.index -d $REPODIR/.index -n localrepo - In the directory .index within the repository directory, some files will be created including the file "nexus-maven-repository-index.gz" which is the file IntelliJ looks out for.

I was looking at maven indexer... but I am not sure what for is the last parameter indexDir in the method:
public RepositoryIndexer createRepositoryIndexer(String repositoryId,
File repositoryBasedir,
File indexDir)
is it like starting point in the repositoryBasedir?
