Depfly

Lightning-fast Maven dependency picker. A global hotkey brings a Spotlight-style window to the front, you type the artifact name, and the finished dependency snippet gets copied to your clipboard.

Sources

Results are gathered across all configured sources, in this order:

Source	Description
local-m2	~/.m2/repository, indexed once at startup, fuzzy search
maven-central	Maven Central via the Solr search API
Nexus	any number of custom repositories, optionally with Basic Auth

An unreachable source doesn't cause the search to fail; the remaining results still show up.

Formats

Gradle (Kotlin), Gradle (Groovy), Maven, Version Catalog (TOML), and SBT.

Controls

Key	Action
Ctrl+Shift+D	Show/hide window (global, configurable)
↑ / ↓	Select result
Tab / Shift+Tab	Cycle through versions
Ctrl+1–5	Choose format
Enter	Copy snippet
Ctrl+,	Settings
Esc	Hide window

Depfly keeps running in the tray; closing the window doesn't quit the app.

Configuration

~/.depfly/config.json contains the hotkey and Nexus repositories. The file is created with default values on first launch and can also be edited via the settings in the UI.

Either a server URL (https://nexus.example.com) or a repository URL (https://nexus.example.com/repository/maven-public) works as the repository URL. In the latter case, the search is scoped to that repository.

Development

npm install
npm run tauri dev     # Dev mode with hot reload
npm run tauri build   # Production build

Rust backend tests:

cd src-tauri && cargo test

Stack
