You can do "java -jar ivy.jar --help" to see the options you have, when running on standalone. You'll still need (at least) an ivy.xml, IIUC. But using Ivy as a library providing a cli client which constructs the necessary objects in memory would make this unnecessary, I think. > I was aware that Ivy could use multiple repositories, but as far as I > can tell, it doesn't allow for a single repository to be distributed > over several servers. You can have separate servers for ivy.xmls and artifacts. However the problem is that this is configured on a per repository basis. So one can't have to two ivy.xmls in the same repository with different artifact patterns. At least that is my understanding. > But at this stage in Clojure's life, we're more likely going to have > lots of little repositories with a few pieces of useful software on. > Clod (or whatever it's name will eventually be) is created for that > ecosystem, but designed to expand into something rather more > sophisticated when the need arises. I think the need is already there: any system not leveraging the existing Maven and Ivy repos is pretty uninteresting given the easy integration with Java libraries.
