In regards to copying modules from one repository to another, the documentation shows examples of copying a single module from one resolver to another, explicitly declaring the organization, module, and revision.
How can I do an implicit bulk copy of all dependencies specified in a particular ivy file from one repository to another? I was hoping for a command syntax like: <ivy:install organization="*" module="*" revision="*" from="sourcerep" to="destrep" ivyFile="ivy.xml" transitive="true"/> Obviously this wildcard syntax doesn't work, but hopefully it illustrates what I'd like to do. This would transitively copy every dependency described in ivy.xml from sourcerep to destrep, transitively. Maybe I am missing the user of a matcher or some regular expression syntax? The problem I'm trying to solve is to create a persistent local artifact repository mirror (like a disk cache) to avoid repeated artifact retrievals across the network. I prefer a local fs repository instead of ivy's internal cache for this purpose , because it seems the ivy cache needs cleaning from time to time. And we are talking about hundreds of megabytes of fairly static libraries, so it makes no sense to dynamically retrieve them across the network each time. Does anyone have any suggestions?
