This permits to manage the Google GCM library with Maven. The gcm-server.jar provided with the Android SDK, used by servers to send push notification to Android devices, is not hosted in any official Maven repository. This is why a created this personal repository. The library has a dependency (simple-json) which is handled in the pom i've written.

Add the repository to your maven configuration:

<repository>
    <id>gcm-server-repository</id>
    <url>https://raw.githubusercontent.com/slorber/gcm-server-repository/master/releases/</url>
</repository>

And then add the dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.android.gcm</groupId>
    <artifactId>gcm-server</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.2</version>
</dependency>

If you build your client with Android you can also add the client dependency, thanks to cjbest:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.android.gcm</groupId>
    <artifactId>gcm-client</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.2</version>
</dependency>

I've only deployed the 1.0.2 version, which is the version i've found in the ant script associated with the gcm-server sources.

If you need another version, of gcm-server which is not already hosted on this server, don't hesitate to create a pull request.

You can see everything i've used here: https://github.com/slorber/gcm-server-repository/deployer

• The source and jar files
• The pom
• A script to install the files to your local maven repository

The pom is required to handle the dependency of the project (simple-json 1.1 here). The script deploys files to ~/.m2/repository/com/google/android/gcm/gcm-server/1.0.2/ You just need to copy this files in your gcm-server-repository/releases/com/google/android/gcm/gcm-server/1.0.2/ and create your pull request
