Reverse Eclipse Plugin?

Hi,

I was wondering whether there's a plugin that can be run on an eclipse project to turn it into a maven project?

So in other words one would create a project in eclipse, run "mvn eclipse:reverse", and and a pom.xml would appear in the root directory.  In addition if the project has dependencies which don't exist in the local maven repo, the plugin would install them.  

Thanks,
- Ole

Hello Ole-

take a look at the eclipse:to-maven plugin
mvn eclipse:to-maven
-DdeployTo=maven.org::default::scpexe://repo1.maven.org/home/maven/repository-staging/to-ibiblio/eclipse-staging
-DeclipseDir=.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the tips.  I voted for the feature.  I have a gazillion projects on my plate ATM, but I'll be glad to help with creation of a mojo for this.  It sounds like we:

Read a plugin.xml
Figure out what the dependencies are
Transfer the dependency values to a modello instance.
Serialize it.
Now we have a pom.xml
Then grab some of the eclipse:to-maven code and use it to deploy the dependencies to the repositories (Local and configurable).

I'm still playing / learing the various pieces of it, so if anyone wants to collaborate feel free to mail me directly.

Cheers,
- Ole

  There is a request to add such feature to m2eclipse. Please vote.
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-781

  BTW, eclipse:to-maven is not what you want. That goal is just installing
jars from local Eclipse installation into Maven repository.

  Thanks

  Eugene
