Deploy programatically created KIE-Drools-Artifact to Maven repository

Question

Is there a way to deploy a programatically created Drools 6 artifact to the underlying maven repository? I do NOT want to explicitly somehow call mvn deploy but do that from the program itself:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    String ruleString = "rule \"TestRule\"\nthen\nSystem.out.println(\"This is a testrule.\");\nend";

    KieServices kieServices = KieServices.Factory.get();

    KieModuleModel kieModuleModel = kieServices.newKieModuleModel();
    KieBaseModel kieBaseModel = kieModuleModel.newKieBaseModel("testbase1").setDefault(true);
    KieSessionModel kieSessionModel = kieBaseModel.newKieSessionModel("testsession1").setDefault(true).setType(KieSessionModel.KieSessionType.STATELESS);

    KieFileSystem kieFileSystem = kieServices.newKieFileSystem();
    kieFileSystem.generateAndWritePomXML(new ReleaseIdImpl("de.itm.test", "testartifact", "0.0.1-SNAPSHOT"));
    kieFileSystem.write("src/main/resources/testbase1/rule1.drl", ruleString);

    KieBuilder kieBuilder = kieServices.newKieBuilder(kieFileSystem).buildAll();

    // how to now deploy the new artifact so it is available on disc, e.g. in ~/.m2/repository/de/itm/test/test/testartifact/0.0.1-SNAPSHOT/ ?

Here you can see a unit test that does what you are asking for:

https://github.com/kiegroup/drools/blob/master/kie-ci/src/test/java/org/kie/scanner/KieScannerIncrementalCompilationTest.java#L63

Basically:

MavenRepository repository = MavenRepository.getMavenRepository();
repository.deployArtifact(releaseId, kJar1, kPom);
