Moxie is a caching maven proxy which is written on top of Netty and is pretty light-weight. I mainly wrote this because sonatype nexus and apache archiva did not work on my NAS to well and I was in need for some more light-weight solution.

The code itself is written in Scala and uses Netty for the network code itself. Hope you find it useful.

How to use it

First compile it

# mvn clean compile assembly:single

Then copy the moxie.properties to your prefered directory and adjust if needed. After this start the proxy via:

# java -Dmoxie.config=/path/to/config/moxie.properties -jar moxie-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Now configure maven to make use of it by add this settings to your ~/.m2/settings.xml
