mavenLocal() ignored when resolving dependencies

[cplerch]

What needs to be configured for searching mavenLocal first when resolving dependencies?
I've tried to specify a dependency which is only present in my local maven repo, but it didn't get resolved.
Error msg:

[kscript] Resolving dependencies...[kscript]

What does it mean (line 2 of error message):
Check dependency locators...

It means, that you may want to check the dependency declarations in your script for typos, version-mistakes, etc.

To debug the issue you could run mvn dependency:copy-dependencies over the generated pom manually to check what goes wrong. Simply paste the printed out pom from above into a pom.xml and run the cmd.

I had a similar problem because I defined a wildcard version...

//DEPS at.mikemitterer:builddart:0.+

which produced the following error message

[kscript] Resolving dependencies...Failed to lookup dependencies. Maven reported the following error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project maven_template: Could not resolve dependencies for project kscript:maven_template:jar:1.0: Failure to find at.mikemitterer:builddart:jar:0.+ in http://jcenter.bintray.com/ was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of jcenter has elapsed or updates are forced -> [Help 1]

After defining the full version //DEPS at.mikemitterer:builddart:0.0.1 it works

[holgerbrandl]

Do you know if maven itself is able to resolve wildcards dependencies?

[MikeMitterer]

Hmmm - I haven't used Maven since I moved to Gradle (x years ago) but I don't think they support wildcards. As far as I know they had just LATEST | RELEASE keywords and then they dropped those KW in 3.0

[holgerbrandl]

Maven seems to support version ranges, so maybe this would work?
