Deployment of artifacts with FTP

 In order to deploy artifacts using FTP you must first specify the use of an FTP server in the
 <<distributionManagement>> element of your POM as well as specifying an <<<extension>>> in your
 <<<build>>> element which will pull in the FTP artifacts required to deploy with FTP:

+----+
<project>
  <parent>
    <groupId>com.stchome</groupId>
    <artifactId>mavenFull</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
  </parent>
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
  <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
  <artifactId>my-app</artifactId>
  <packaging>jar</packaging>
  <version>1.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
  <name>Maven Quick Start Archetype</name>
  <url>http://maven.apache.org</url>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>junit</groupId>
      <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
      <version>3.8.1</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>

  <!-- Enabling the use of FTP -->
  <distributionManagement>
    <repository>
    <id>ftp-repository</id>
    <url>ftp://repository.mycompany.com/repository</url>
    </repository>
  </distributionManagement>

  <build>
    <extensions>
      <extension>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
         <artifactId>wagon-ftp</artifactId>
         <version>1.0-alpha-6</version>
      </extension>
    </extensions>
  </build>

</project>
+----+

 Your <<<settings.xml>>> would contain a <<<server>>> element where the <<<id>>> of that element matches <<<id>>> of the
 FTP repository specified in the POM above:

+----+
<settings>

  ...

  <servers>
    <server>
      <id>ftp-repository</id>
      <username>user</username>
      <password>pass</password>
    </server>

  </servers>

  ...

</settings>
+----+

 You should, of course, make sure that you can login into the specified FTP server by hand before attempting the
 deployment with Maven. Once you have verified that everything is setup correctly you can now deploy your artifacts
 using Maven:

+----+
mvn deploy
+----+
