Hi Jon,
Attached you can find a zip file containing a deploy script (deploy.sh) with
some additional resources. This script might serve as an example how an upload
into a remote repository can be performed. This script file is just an example
rather than a ready-to-use solution. We use a similiar script for uploading
external resources that are available as binaries alongside with the headers
and – maybe – additional resources.
The script expects the resources that should be deployed in a certain directory
structure. This structure is documented inside deploy.sh.
In contrast to the straight-forward java use case we have several side
artifacts. The layout in general is
${repoRoot}/your/group/id/<ArtifactId>/<Version>/
<GroupId>-<Version>-<Configuration>-<SDK>.a <!-- The lib -->
<GroupId>-<Version>-<Configuration>-<SDK>.headers.tar <!-- The headers -->
<GroupId>-<Version>.pom
<GroupId>-<Version>.tar
<GroupId>-<Version>.bundle <!-- additional resources -->
In case you have no nexus available you could fake a remote repository in your
local file system. This "remote" repo can be added in your settings.xml.
Afterwards the artifacts gets resolved from your remote repo fake into your
local repository as usual. The config file used by deploy.sh and located beside
that script works with such a remote repo fake (see property "remoteRepo").
In case of additional questions do not hesitate to ask again.
Best regards,
Marcus Holl

Subject: [maven4ios] Deploying Non-Maven Based Libraries
So, I'm setting up my builds to use Xcode-Maven and am super excited about it.
One thing I want to make sure that I am doing correctly is putting non-maven
deployed libraries into my repositories correctly.
For example, let's say I'm using Urban Airship for push notifications. Urban
Airship's library comes pre-compiled (not a set of class files like a lot of
other "libraries"), but to my knowledge has no associated pom file (or maybe
they are also using xcode-maven and I'm not looking hard enough...let's assume
they are NOT maven based). Assuming that their library is a static library and
a set of header files, what is the best way to insert such a structure into my
local repository so it can be referenced as a dependency in my xcode-maven
builds? I know with standard maven/java in order to deploy .jar files, it's a
simple one line cmd line job. But the jar is completely self contained, obj-c
libraries usually have headers and possibly bundles to go along with them.
Is it possible to do this with xcode-maven? Would I need to create my own pom
and bundle the files up into a zip to deploy into my local repository? Is it
best to base the structure of the zip off of what I see in my local repository
already or is there documentation on the format?
Thanks for any insight you can provide,
--Jon
