I want to use a npm package in a java maven project.
It's just one file that is used in the java project.
We have two projects.
react frontend project where a bundle.js is the artifact which is uploaded with maven
java maven project where we use the bundle.js as a maven dependency
Now we want to get rid of the maven stuff in the react project.
So we will upload the bundle.js as a npm package into our npm registry.
We use nexus3 for our npm and maven repositories.
I want to avoid adding a maven plugin in the java project to install the npm package with a real npm installation.
Maybe there is kind of a npm maven proxy plugin for maven or a npm maven proxy possibility in nexus3?
Thank you!
There is fresh maven plugin to do such operations like obtaining resources from NPM, filtering and packing into JAR:WAR: https://github.com/OrienteerBAP/JNPM
