Resolution of local Maven artefacts does not work #611

[mduerig]

Add resolver for local Maven cache

[alexarchambault]

I wouldn't recommend adding ~/.m2/repository by default. It sometimes misses artifacts (like it has the POMs but not the JARs), which confuses coursier - if a repo has a POM, coursier expects it to have the JAR too... I could add a helper in coursier (like coursier.MavenRepository.m2Local) to make it easier to add it from ammonite though.

coursier.MavenRepository.m2Local would be a better solution and nicely inline with coursier.Cache.ivy2Local.

[alexarchambault]

Possibly even coursier.Cache.m2Local :-) Or I wanted to move ivy2Local under coursier.IvyRepository...

@mduerig Regardless of what changes you end up doing to coursier, do you still want to add it by default to Ammonite's resolvers? If not you can always add it manually in your own predef/earlier-block, and I'll close this issue/PR

[mduerig]

@lihaoyi , I agree with @alexarchambault that this is better tackled in one way or another in coursier. Once this is done we can get back to this issue and see how to fix it. In the meanwhile let's close the PR.
