Using aws-maven in settings.xml

[rodlogic]

I would configure my repositories in settings.xml instead of in my pom.xml. This works fine for the built in wagon since these are in the class path, but how to do the same for s3? E.g.:

   <server>
     <id>myrepo</id>
     <username>...</username>
     <privateKey>...</privateKey>
     <passphrase>...</passphrase>
      <configuration>
        <wagonProvider>s3</wagonProvider>
      </configuration>
   </server>

One solution is to copy aws-maven and all of its dependencies to the maven installation or the JDK installation, but considering that we have many maven installs and usually update versions quite often I would like to have Maven resolve aws-maven automatically from settings.xml (after all isn't this the whole point of Maven?). Is that possible?

I have same issue

I am facing the same issue.

In my case, I have a parent pom with the distributionManagement and s3 wagon extension configured. Now, in a build server, I couldn't build the child project. As s3 wagon is configured in parent, it could not download the parent. If I can configure the wagon in settings.xml instead of parent, this problem will be solved.
