In the comments you mentioned that the URL is an Artifactory.

So just add the Artifactory as <repository> to your settings.xml and then you can use the jar in your application.

No, it's not possible to add a complete repository as a dependency. This doesn't make sense, because a repository can contain ten thousands of artifacts.

If your project requires artifacts which are not hosted in the standard remote repository, you can specify this via the <repositories> tag in your pom.xml .

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>vaadin-addons</id>
        <url>http://maven.vaadin.com/vaadin-addons</url>
    </repository>
    <repository>
        <id>vaadin-snapshots</id>
        <url>http://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/vaadin-snapshots/</url>
        <releases>
            <enabled>false</enabled>
        </releases>
        <snapshots>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
        </snapshots>
    </repository>
</repositories>
