Hi GoCD Community,

I am looking for some effective solution to fasten up our maven builds. Each time a maven build is triggered, it downloads all dependencies present in pom.xml which is taking too much time. Can someone please help me with this?

Regards,

Mohit

I've seen folks volume mounting the local maven/gradle repository in `~/.m2` or `~/.gradle` to get around this problem.

Hi Ketan,

Thanks for your quick response. I agree with your approach but problem is that our GoCD agents created on the flyway as per demand. As soon as job completed, container get killed and agent goes on stand by.

Can you please suggest how can we solve this issue?

Hello Mohit,

One option is to update the GoCD agent container image to include the local maven repository.

Another is to do what Ketan suggested and create a persistent volume that holds the local maven repo and gets mounted by the container at startup.

The specifics on how to do either of these will depend on your specific container implementation.
