this might be similar to this SO question, but might not.
I want to avoid that ANY remote repository (called proxy repository in Nexus) will ever try to download an artifact starting with my.company.
I tried using Content selectors, but no luck; it still tried to download this URL: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/my/company/some/0.1.0/some-0.1.0.pom.
In Artifactory I can specify exlcudes, and in Nexus 2 there was routing. What can be done about this in Nexus 3?
What I did:
- Created a selector matching path or GroupId
- Created privileges for each remote repository
- Assigned the privileges to a new role
- no other role has access to the new role, no user at all has the new role.
- All users can still see and browse central for artifacts
my/company(if it existed).
Although it seems you NEED this role to read or view artifacts starting with my/company, it does not hinder nexus to try to download them.
Am I correct? Is there anything which can be done? Why can people still browse that path despite not having this privilege?
Thanks!
