Maven Project - in repository or in current modular project
I want to write a plugin to maven that copies the flex modules from a
flex project (type swf) which contains modules. This because the
flexmojos does not do this. My problem is that independent of how the
flexmodules are configured in the pom of the flex project they are saved
on the local repository with a naming convention using artifactId,
version and the name in lowercase as configured in the pom.
I need to copy them as configured in the pom. Well, actually this is
not a great problem, just some manipulation extracting information from
the pom and I'm done. The problem is, that when flex project is in some
way part of my project (modular) then the files are not saved with this
convention but in the path as configured in the pom and with the name as
configured in the pom.
I would like to know, how I can distinguish if the swf project that I
have at hand is in the repository, because it was previously installed
or if it is part of my current project. I don't know if I've explained
myself well, with being in my current project I mean specifically the
case in which I have a pom that has e.g. two modules, one for the swf,
and then one war where I want to put the peaces together.
Any link to documentation is welcome, all I can find is to simple
from e.g. the maven site or the complete guide.

Thanks a million, as I said, now I will as soon as I have time study
this suggestion and when I have resolved my issue I will give my
version here for future users with similar problems.

/**
* @parameter expression="${reactorProjects}"
* @required
* @readonly
*/
private List/*<MavenProject>*/ reactorProjects;
will in your mojo will give you the list of reactor projects (if
targetting JRE 1.5+ you can safely uncomment the generics qualifier)
for (MavenProject project: reactorProjects) {
if (project.getGroupId().equals(groupId) &&
project.getArtifactId().equals(artifactId) &&
project.getVersion().equals(version)) {
for (Artifact artifact: project.getAttachedArtifacts() {
if (artifact.getClassifier().equals(classifier) &&
artifact.getType().equals(type)) {
return artifact.getFile();
}
}
}
return null;
If you get a null file back or if the file does not exist.... fall
back to resolving from the local/remote repos

Thanks, I think I've understood your strategy, that immediately
brings me to the problem that I'm lacking documentation. Could you
please give me an simple example how to do this, at least the two most
important passes and I should be on a go I think :)
Of course if I resolve my problem then I will give an exhausted
explanation how I went about it so that future users searching this
thread see me through.

You should be looking for the references to the files from the
reactor's attached artifacts not on the disk directly, so you'd
iterate through the reactorProjects looking for the one with the
matching GAV, if present then you look at that project's attached
artifacts for the matching GAVCT and if the getFile() != null then
that is your file. Otherwise if you have not found the file, then hit
the repositories.
That is the _correct_ way in principle....
What I cannot recall is if there are some handy helper methods/utility
classes to do just that for you or whether you have to reinvent the
wheel each time
