RAT in a Maven build
Hi,
I'd like to include a RAT run in a Maven build process. What's the
best way to do that?
BR,
Jukka Zitting

Thanks, that does the trick! I got mislead by the Usage page that
suggests that rat:check just writes the report file.

i've been occasionally working on the scan stuff which produces eg
http://incubator.apache.org/audit/ but it works ok(ish) ATM

great :-)
if there are some more people interested then i'm much more likely to
get start on some newer stuff...

Excellent. RAT is an excellent project, but it needs momentum.
Welcome!

I'm actually interested in spending some cycles here, as I'd like to
better automate license review processes at the projects I'm involved
in. I'll probably end up with some patches to share.

OK, thanks. I'm pretty familiar with both Maven and Hudson, so I
should be able to set things up the way I want as soon as I've looked
a bit deeper into the rat-maven-plugin and tweaked it a bit (see the
patches I already uploaded to Jira for a start).

I think it is fair to say there are no plans for anything. This
project is "existing" rather than "developing".
However, it *is* possible to set up a CI build to check for licence
headers. I use Hudson on my project and it works fine.
Set Maven up to fail and hudson will report a fail. You don't get a
nice report of why it failed (have to go into the logs folder to find
our, or run it locally).
I'm afraid I can't remember exactly how I configured this, but the
pom.xml is at http://code.google.com/p/simal/source/browse/trunk/uk.ac.osswatch.simal.core/pom.xml
If you use hudson and can't figure it out, let me know I'll give you a
login to our server so you can poke around on the understanding that
you'll give us bullet point notes on how to do it.

Thanks!
I was thinking of setting a CI build that automatically checks the
license headers and fails if they are not correct. The documentation
seems to suggest that this not possible at the moment. Are there plans
to implement something like that?

The latest I can find is
org.codehaus.mojo:rat-maven-plugin:1.0-alpha-3 from 2007. Is there a
more recent release available?
How do I configure the plugin?
