    Looking at the linked issue at https://github.com/sonatype/nexus-public/issues/105, this does not yet apply to OSSRH, etc:

    Their documentation still links to their defunct JIRA that was "retired" 2 weeks ago and only refers to a GitHub project that seems to be entirely unrelated to the task at hand.

    they also link to a GitHub issue in that repo (https://github.com/sonatype/nexus-public/issues/105) where people are discussing this. the last comment in that issue as I write this was 19 minutes ago

    Setup a caching repository proxy like nexus: https://github.com/sonatype/nexus-public

    This is a little server you run locally and point your package managers like Gradle, pip, npm, etc. at it and it will grab dependencies from their upstream and cache them locally to be available offline later. Once you get it setup go wild adding every dependency you can think of using so it preloads the cache with good stuff. Unfortunately offline caching for package managers is really hit or miss and rarely a priority to support, so expect some pain getting it all setup. Good luck.
