Clarification on s3 maven bucket

Datomic Cloud
1

Hi

I just wanted to know why is datomic downloading deps from s3 instead of a maven repo. Also why do we need aws credentials to download datomic dependencies?

2

Datomic client is open source and is on maven central. What dependencies are you referring to?

3

The ion-dev dependency. As shown in the ion tutorial.

:mvn/repos {“datomic-cloud” {:url “s3://datomic-releases-1fc2183a/maven/releases”}}

Several Datomic support libraries are hosted in a private maven repo that Cognitect maintains. The ion-dev dependency is one of these.
