How to Use ZK Maven Repository
This chapter describes how to use the Maven repository hosted by ZK. (We assume you have known Maven) Here introduces you with a simple example of using ZK maven repository in your maven build environment.
Add ZK Maven repository to your pom.xml file
By default, while resolving project dependencies Maven will only look into Maven central repository [1]. In order to use ZK Maven repository add following <repositories> element into pom.xml under the root <project> element.
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>ZK CE</id>
<name>ZK CE Repository</name>
<url>https://mavensync.zkoss.org/maven2</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
Note that ZK Maven repository URL is https://mavensync.zkoss.org/maven2.
Adding ZK library dependencies
Depending upon your project requirements your project might depend on various ZK libraries. You can declare these dependencies in pom.xml file and Maven can resolve them by automatically connecting to ZK Maven repository Here is how you can declare a dependency for main ZK library and zul library for your project.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zkbind</artifactId>
<version>8.5.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zul</artifactId>
<version>8.5.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zkplus</artifactId>
<version>8.5.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zhtml</artifactId>
<version>8.5.0</version>
</dependency>
In order for Maven to successfully resolve these dependencies groupid and artifactid must match with those published on ZK Maven repository as they constitute what is known as Maven repository coordinates. For a complete list of all ZK library groupid and artifactid combinations please take a look at a sample pom.xml file that lists dependencies for all publically available ZK libraries on ZK Maven repository.
Sample of pom.xml
Here is sample pom.xml for a simple Java project that uses the ZK maven repository.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"

Required Dependencies
The following are required dependencies you need to include one of them in your pom.xml according to which ZK edition you use.
ZK CE
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zul</artifactId>
<version>${zk.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
ZK PE
<dependencies>

<version>${zk.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
ZK EE
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zkmax</artifactId>
<version>${zk.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Optional Dependencies
The following dependencies are optional and available for all editions. You can include them according to your needs.
<dependencies>
<!-- It's available since ZK 8. If you want to use shadow component/template injection, include this -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zuti</artifactId>
<version>${zk.version}</version>
</dependency>

</dependency>
<!-- If you want to use zk xhtml component set, include this -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zhtml</artifactId>
<version>${zk.version}</version>
</dependency>
<!-- If you want to use third party framework e.g. hibernate, spring, you can include this -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zkplus</artifactId>
<version>${zk.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
Check Available ZK Version
Please visit each edition's corresponding ZK Maven repository with a browser to check the available ZK versions.
Choose Right Maven Repository
ZK has three editions: CE, PE and EE. They are hosted in different Maven repository. I will guide you through how to choose the right edition and set up the right ZK Maven repository.
Steps for choosing the right edition
Here are the steps for choosing the right edition of ZK:
Decide which edition to use:
- There are three editions of ZK: CE, PE and EE
- For more information, please refer to description about ZK Editions and the following section that summarizes the jar files.
Summary of JAR files
There're something you need to know about ZK's edition and package(s).
CE | PE | EE | Description | |
---|---|---|---|---|
zk.jar | V | V | V | ZK core functions, such as ZK Loader and Update Engine. |
zul.jar | V | V | V | ZK XUL components (http://www.zkoss.org/2005/zul) |
zhtml.jar | V | V | V | ZK XHTML components (http://www.w3c.org/1999/xhtml) |
zcommon.jar | V | V | V | The common library that ZK depends on |
zcommons-el.jar | V | V | V | ZK EL expressions (renamed as zel.jar since 6.0) |
zel.jar | V | V | V | ZK EL expressions (since 6.0) |
zkbind.jar | V | V | V | data binding, required when developing with MVVM |
zweb.jar | V | V | V | The Web library that ZK depends on |
zkplus.jar | V | V | V | ZK extra utilities integrated easily with other frameworks. |
zkex.jar | V | V | ZK additional components and features for PE | |
zkmax.jar | V | ZK additional components and features for EE | ||
zuti.jar | V | shadow components for EE | ||
zml.jar | V (only ZK 3) |
V | V | ZK XML components for generating XML output |
This will be helpful when you modify your dependencies of projects.
Add ZK Maven Repository to Your Projects
According to which ZK edition you use and add the corresponding repository to your project's pom.xml.
CE (Freely avaialable under LGPL)
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>ZK CE</id>
<url>https://mavensync.zkoss.org/maven2</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
PE-eval / EE-eval (60-days free evaluation)
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>ZK PE/EE Evaluation</id>
<url>https://mavensync.zkoss.org/eval/</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
- Note: Version number appending with -Eval has released since Jul. 18 2014. If you use it, please specify version to *-Eval for all of ZK dependencies. For example:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zk</artifactId>
<version>8.5.0-Eval</version>
</dependency>
- Notice : Needs Login authentication
If you are our customer or ZOL licensed user you can contact info@zkoss.org to apply for a premium maven account to use ZK PE/EE (or any other licensed ZK product) maven repository.
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>ZK EE</id>
<url>https://maven.zkoss.org/repo/zk/ee</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
Login authentication
Licensed Professional and Enterprise customers will be given a set of user name and password upon your request. According to the official doc of Apache Maven, users can create global settings for maven.
- Location (if not existed, you can create it manually)
- The Maven install: $M2_HOME/conf/settings.xml
- A user's install: ${user.home}/.m2/settings.xml
- Servers Element
- If you add ZK PE or ZK EE as your repository, you need to add login authentication like following example
<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0
http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
<servers>
<server>
<id>ZK EE</id><!-- Same as your repository name -->
<!-- Your premium user name and password -->
<username>ryanwu</username>
<password>2k055ecret</password>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>

Trouble Shooting
If you have problems switching from the evaluation repository to the licensed one, please check the followings:
- 1. Remove evaluation repository, use PE / EE repository instead
- 2. Check if Login authentication is set up correctly
- 3. Delete cached local copy
Purge local repository evaluation cache
1. Add purge-local-repository plugin in pom.xml
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>purge-local-dependencies</id>
<phase>clean</phase>
<goals>
<goal>purge-local-repository</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<manualIncludes>
<manualInclude>org.zkoss.zk:zkex</manualInclude>
<manualInclude>org.zkoss.zk:zkmax</manualInclude>
</manualIncludes>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
- line 16: ZK PE
- line 17: ZK EE
2. Invoke maven clean to delete local zkex & zkmax repository
mvn clean
BOM
ZK provides a "bill of materials" (BOM) which can be used by your projects simplify a pom.xml. You can use it as a parent POM or import it like:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.zkoss.zk</groupId>
<artifactId>zk-bom</artifactId>
<version>9.0.1-Eval</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
For a complete example, you can reference pom.xml of this project. You can also read a spring boot document to understand BOM usage.
