-## Introduction
-
-In this article, we will show how you can leverage the power of [GitLab CI/CD](https://about.gitlab.com/features/gitlab-ci-cd/)
-to build a [Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) project, deploy it to [Artifactory](https://www.jfrog.com/artifactory/), and then use it from another Maven application as a dependency.
-
-You'll create two different projects:
-
-- `simple-maven-dep`: the app built and deployed to Artifactory (available at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-examples/maven/simple-maven-dep)
-- `simple-maven-app`: the app using the previous one as a dependency (available at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-examples/maven/simple-maven-app)
-
-We assume that you already have a GitLab account on [GitLab.com](https://gitlab.com/), and that you know the basic usage of Git and [GitLab CI/CD](https://about.gitlab.com/features/gitlab-ci-cd/).
-We also assume that an Artifactory instance is available and reachable from the internet, and that you have valid credentials to deploy on it.
-
-## Create the simple Maven dependency
-
-First of all, you need an application to work with: in this specific case we will
-use a simple one, but it could be any Maven application. This will be the
-dependency you want to package and deploy to Artifactory, in order to be
-available to other projects.
-
-### Prepare the dependency application
-
-For this article you'll use a Maven app that can be cloned from our example
-project:
-
-1. Log in to your GitLab account
-1. Create a new project by selecting **Import project from ➔ Repo by URL**
-1. Add the following URL:
-
-    ```
-    https://gitlab.com/gitlab-examples/maven/simple-maven-dep.git
-    ```
-1. Click **Create project**
-
-This application is nothing more than a basic class with a stub for a JUnit based test suite.
-It exposes a method called `hello` that accepts a string as input, and prints a hello message on the screen.
-
-The project structure is really simple, and you should consider these two resources:
-
-- `pom.xml`: project object model (POM) configuration file
-- `src/main/java/com/example/dep/Dep.java`: source of our application
-
-### Configure the Artifactory deployment
-
-The application is ready to use, but you need some additional steps to deploy it to Artifactory:
-
-1. Log in to Artifactory with your user's credentials.
-1. From the main screen, click on the `libs-release-local` item in the **Set Me Up** panel.
-1. Copy to clipboard the configuration snippet under the **Deploy** paragraph.
-1. Change the `url` value in order to have it configurable via secret variables.
-1. Copy the snippet in the `pom.xml` file for your project, just after the
-   `dependencies` section. The snippet should look like this:
-
-    ```xml
-    <distributionManagement>
-      <repository>
-        <id>central</id>
-        <name>83d43b5afeb5-releases</name>
-        <url>${env.MAVEN_REPO_URL}/libs-release-local</url>
-      </repository>
-    </distributionManagement>
-    ```
-
-Another step you need to do before you can deploy the dependency to Artifactory
-is to configure the authentication data. It is a simple task, but Maven requires
-it to stay in a file called `settings.xml` that has to be in the `.m2` subdirectory
-in the user's homedir.
-
-Since you want to use GitLab Runner to automatically deploy the application, you
-should create the file in the project's home directory and set a command line
-parameter in `.gitlab-ci.yml` to use the custom location instead of the default one:
-
-1. Create a folder called `.m2` in the root of your repository
-1. Create a file called `settings.xml` in the `.m2` folder
-1. Copy the following content into a `settings.xml` file:
-
-    ```xml
-    <settings xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.1.0.xsd"
-        xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
-      <servers>
-        <server>
-          <id>central</id>
-          <username>${env.MAVEN_REPO_USER}</username>
-          <password>${env.MAVEN_REPO_PASS}</password>
-        </server>
-      </servers>
-    </settings>
-    ```
-
-    Username and password will be replaced by the correct values using secret variables.
-
-### Configure GitLab CI/CD for `simple-maven-dep`
-
-Now it's time we set up [GitLab CI/CD](https://about.gitlab.com/features/gitlab-ci-cd/) to automatically build, test and deploy the dependency!
-
-GitLab CI/CD uses a file in the root of the repo, named `.gitlab-ci.yml`, to read the definitions for jobs
-that will be executed by the configured GitLab Runners. You can read more about this file in the [GitLab Documentation](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/yaml/).
-
-First of all, remember to set up secret variables for your deployment. Navigate to your project's **Settings > CI/CD** page
-and add the following secret variables (replace them with your current values, of course):
-
-- **MAVEN_REPO_URL**: `http://artifactory.example.com:8081/artifactory` (your Artifactory URL)
-- **MAVEN_REPO_USER**: `gitlab` (your Artifactory username)
-- **MAVEN_REPO_PASS**: `AKCp2WXr3G61Xjz1PLmYa3arm3yfBozPxSta4taP3SeNu2HPXYa7FhNYosnndFNNgoEds8BCS` (your Artifactory Encrypted Password)
-
-Now it's time to define jobs in `.gitlab-ci.yml` and push it to the repo:
-
-```yaml
-image: maven:latest
-
-variables:
-  MAVEN_CLI_OPTS: "-s .m2/settings.xml --batch-mode"
-  MAVEN_OPTS: "-Dmaven.repo.local=.m2/repository"
-
-cache:
-  paths:
-    - .m2/repository/
-    - target/
-
-build:
-  stage: build
-  script:
-    - mvn $MAVEN_CLI_OPTS compile
-
-test:
-  stage: test
-  script:
-    - mvn $MAVEN_CLI_OPTS test
-
-deploy:
-  stage: deploy
-  script:
-    - mvn $MAVEN_CLI_OPTS deploy
-  only:
-    - master
-```
-
-GitLab Runner will use the latest [Maven Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/_/maven/), which already contains all the tools and the dependencies you need to manage the project,
-in order to run the jobs.
-
-Environment variables are set to instruct Maven to use the `homedir` of the repo instead of the user's home when searching for configuration and dependencies.
-
-Caching the `.m2/repository folder` (where all the Maven files are stored), and the `target` folder (where our application will be created), is useful for speeding up the process
-by running all Maven phases in a sequential order, therefore, executing `mvn test` will automatically run `mvn compile` if necessary.
-
-Both `build` and `test` jobs leverage the `mvn` command to compile the application and to test it as defined in the test suite that is part of the application.
-
-Deploy to Artifactory is done as defined by the secret variables we have just set up.
-The deployment occurs only if we're pushing or merging to `master` branch, so that the development versions are tested but not published.
-
-Done! Now you have all the changes in the GitLab repo, and a pipeline has already been started for this commit. In the **Pipelines** tab you can see what's happening.
-If the deployment has been successful, the deploy job log will output:
-
-```
-[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[INFO] BUILD SUCCESS
-[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[INFO] Total time: 1.983 s
-```
-
->**Note**:
-the `mvn` command downloads a lot of files from the internet, so you'll see a lot of extra activity in the log the first time you run it.
-
-Yay! You did it! Checking in Artifactory will confirm that you have a new artifact available in the `libs-release-local` repo.
-
-## Create the main Maven application
-
-Now that you have the dependency available on Artifactory, it's time to use it!
-Let's see how we can have it as a dependency to our main application.
-
-### Prepare the main application
-
-We'll use again a Maven app that can be cloned from our example project:
-
-1. Create a new project by selecting **Import project from ➔ Repo by URL**
-1. Add the following URL:
-
-    ```
-    https://gitlab.com/gitlab-examples/maven/simple-maven-app.git
-    ```
-1. Click **Create project**
-
-This one is a simple app as well. If you look at the `src/main/java/com/example/app/App.java`
-file you can see that it imports the `com.example.dep.Dep` class and calls the `hello` method passing `GitLab` as a parameter.
-
-Since Maven doesn't know how to resolve the dependency, you need to modify the configuration:
-
-1. Go back to Artifactory
-1. Browse the `libs-release-local` repository
-1. Select the `simple-maven-dep-1.0.jar` file
-1. Find the configuration snippet from the **Dependency Declaration** section of the main panel
-1. Copy the snippet in the `dependencies` section of the `pom.xml` file.
-   The snippet should look like this:
-
-    ```xml
-    <dependency>
-      <groupId>com.example.dep</groupId>
-      <artifactId>simple-maven-dep</artifactId>
-      <version>1.0</version>
-    </dependency>
-    ```
-
-### Configure the Artifactory repository location
-
-At this point you defined the dependency for the application, but you still miss where you can find the required files.
-You need to create a `.m2/settings.xml` file as you did for the dependency project, and let Maven know the location using environment variables.
-
-Here is how you can get the content of the file directly from Artifactory:
-
-1. From the main screen, click on the `libs-release-local` item in the **Set Me Up** panel
-1. Click on **Generate Maven Settings**
-1. Click on **Generate Settings**
-1. Copy to clipboard the configuration file
-1. Save the file as `.m2/settings.xml` in your repo
-
-Now you are ready to use the Artifactory repository to resolve dependencies and use `simple-maven-dep` in your main application!
-
-### Configure GitLab CI/CD for `simple-maven-app`
-
-You need a last step to have everything in place: configure the `.gitlab-ci.yml` file for this project, as you already did for `simple-maven-dep`.
-
-You want to leverage [GitLab CI/CD](https://about.gitlab.com/features/gitlab-ci-cd/) to automatically build, test and run your awesome application,
-and see if you can get the greeting as expected!
-
-All you need to do is to add the following `.gitlab-ci.yml` to the repo:
-
-```yaml
-image: maven:latest
-
-stages:
-  - build
-  - test
-  - run
-
-variables:
-  MAVEN_CLI_OPTS: "-s .m2/settings.xml --batch-mode"
-  MAVEN_OPTS: "-Dmaven.repo.local=.m2/repository"
-
-cache:
-  paths:
-    - .m2/repository/
-    - target/
-
-build:
-  stage: build
-  script:
-    - mvn $MAVEN_CLI_OPTS compile
-
-test:
-  stage: test
-  script:
-    - mvn $MAVEN_CLI_OPTS test
-
-run:
-  stage: run
-  script:
-    - mvn $MAVEN_CLI_OPTS package
-    - mvn $MAVEN_CLI_OPTS exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.example.app.App"
-```
-
-It is very similar to the configuration used for `simple-maven-dep`, but instead of the `deploy` job there is a `run` job.
-Probably something that you don't want to use in real projects, but here it is useful to see the application executed automatically.
-
-And that's it! In the `run` job output log you will find a friendly hello to GitLab!
-
-## Conclusion
-
-In this article we covered the basic steps to use an Artifactory Maven repository to automatically publish and consume artifacts.
-
-A similar approach could be used to interact with any other Maven compatible Binary Repository Manager.
-Obviously, you can improve these examples, optimizing the `.gitlab-ci.yml` file to better suit your needs, and adapting to your workflow.
