Accessing the PrimeFaces artifacts via maven.

gistfile1.txt

In section 2 of the documentation (http://www.primefaces.org/documentation.html), it shows how you can define the primefaces repository in your maven pom.xml (or ~/.m2/settings.xml):

<repository>
<id>prime-repo</id>
<name>Prime Repo</name>
<url>http://repository.primefaces.org</url>
</repository>

If you are using maven in an organisation you would be better off setting up a repository manager such as NEXUS and configuring that with the primefaces repository. Then, your developers just configure this nexus repository as a mirror of everything in their ~/.m2/settings.xml and everything is transparent.

<mirrors>
    <mirror>
      <!--This sends everything else to /public -->
      <id>nexus</id>
      <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
      <url>http://internalrepo/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
    </mirror>
  </mirrors>

http://www.sonatype.org/nexus/

Note that a repository manager is the preferred solution since you'll need somewhere to release your own artifacts to, and nexus does this very well.
