mvn-search-cli

CLI script for searching artifacts at maven central

Requirements

• Make sure you have python 2.7+ (<3) installed and the mvn-search script executable
• update your PATH variable to include the executable.

Usage

mvn-search [-h] [-r max_results] [-f format] [-v] query

The supported formats are: 'table', 'mvn', 'buildr', 'ivy', 'grape', 'gradle', 'sbt', 'leiningen'. 'table' is the default output.

The query supports all coordinates, classname and SHA-1 checksum parameters:

• g:group.identifier
• a:artifact.identifier
• v:version.identifier
• l:classifier
• p:packaging-type
• fc:fully.classified.classname
• c:classname
• 1:hash

These query parameters can be mixed together. if separated by the AND keyword, all parameters must be satisfied. e.g. "g:io.vertx AND a:vertx-core AND v:3.1.0"

Examples

Search for vertx artifacts:

→ mvn-search vertx
