[M2] How to work with Eclipse Wtp and maven2
Hi all,
I found off some mails on this subject but I can't seems to get the big
picture to how work at the same time with eclipse wtp and maven 2. The
documentation seems very sparse and seems to use different tricks. Can
someone who got it working give me some quick hints of the differences
between working with Maven 2 with the regular version of eclipse and with
eclipse Wtp.
Thank for any help. Really appreciated!

Somewhere on my very long list of things to do is to start a wiki page
listing the known available archetypes. It can go under this space:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/Home
Right now we have a half-dozen or so between Struts, Shale, and
MyFaces. I'm not completely happy with any of mine, I'm still
struggling with how best to create multi-module archetypes.

It seems to be one archetype == one module. If you're going to run it
multiple times, you create a parent pom, then do mvn archetype:create
a few times, and it *does* handle setting up the parent/child module
relationships.
My fear is that people will just do the webapp module, and never set
up the integration tests, so I tend to want to keep it all together.
AFAIK, the archetype plugin will not "overlay" an existing project,
for example to add more dependencies to a pom. It just complains that
the directory already exists.

project.
Am I misunderstanding the whole idea of an archetype when I think like this?

Hmmm... well, maven 1.0.2 justed asked a lot of questions. I could go for
that.
>At that point, it's not an archetype, it's AppFuse.
That is not so bad. The problem with AppFuse is that there is no dialog
asking you what you want and don't want. For something as complex as
AppFuse, one should really have a GUI.

IMO the projects themselves should provide the archetypes. This
proves to be more difficult than it sounds... for Struts I didn't go
beyond turning the "Struts Blank" webapp into an archetype, because
after that, how should I know whether you want Hibernate, iBatis,
Spring, etc? At that point, it's not an archetype, it's AppFuse.
The next challenge is building a multi-module archetype. The current
best practices say to put your integration tests in a separate module,
but Archetype seems to only want to do one module at a time. Either
you have to type 'mvn archetype:create' several times, or you stuff it
all under archetype-resources and lose the ability to specify the
package name.
I know Apache MyFaces has a couple of archetypes available, one for a
webapp, and the other for a JSF component library. I think that's how
it will continue, once projects convert to Maven 2 (it's inevitable,
right?) they will provide their own archetypes.

It would usually be 'mvn package' or 'mvn install'.
To deploy it, I would use Cargo, which has a Maven 2 plugin.

They're not so much commands as they are build lifecycle phases.
'mvn' is the command, and then you tell it which phase to execute
through. See if this helps:
* http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-lifecycle.html
Plugins are bound to various phases, so as Maven passes through the
build phases, it fires executions of the plugins.
Something like 'mvn war:war' is a direct execution of a plugin goal.
For that you would consult the war plugin docs (which point out that
'mvn package' is the preferred way to to it.)

Hi there,
To use the WAR plugin for Maven 2 you must execute the following war goal:
mvn war:war
This will then create a war projet within the target directory.
As for using tomcat and jetty you can find out more on the appropriate
plugin from the following site
http://mojo.codehaus.org/
I had trouble downloading the plugings out of the sandbox so I checked out
the source code from the mojo SVN and executed a mvn intall on the project.
Hope this helps

I tried your (pete's) example:
mvn archetype:create -DartifactId=test -DgroupId=org.test
-DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes
-DarchetypeVersion=1.0-alpha-4
Now what? I tried "mvn war" and that did not work! How can I automate the

I'll try out the mvn 2 webapp archetype soon but your comments are not
encouraging (but nevertheless appreciated).
How about maven 1 genapp? Is there any documentation on that?
I guessed tried "maven war" and
bash-3.00$ cp target/id_hello.war /c/Program\ Files/Apache\
Software\Foundation/Tomcat\ 5.5/webapps/
Lo and behold it worked!
Are there any other maven targets I relevant to web apps that I would like
to know about?
Now build.xml scripts usually have a deploy target for them. Is there a
jelly or some other script for maven 1.0 to do that last step of copying the
war file to the web server?
Thanks,
Siegfried

Re: List of Maven Archetypes?

Currently there's :
- maven-archetype-j2ee-simple
- maven-archetype-portlet
- maven-archetype-simple
- maven-archetype-site-simple
- maven-archetype-webapp
- maven-archetype-marmalade-mojo
- maven-archetype-quickstart
Sorry, I'm not sure if there's a guide for each. running mvn site:site
on archetypes only generates the basic reports..no guides.
command for generating projects using archetype :
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=<group> -DartifactId=<artifact name>
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetype
-DarchetypeArtifactId=<archetype
name> -DarchetypeVersion=<version>
ex.
mvn archetype:create -DartifactId=test -DgroupId=org.test
-DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes
-DarchetypeVersion=1.0-alpha-4
try checking http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/archetypes
for the latest version of the archetypes
and if you feel the urge to write a guide on how to use them, the
Maven community will greatly appreciate it. =)

List of Maven Archetypes?
Posted by siegfried <si...@heintze.com>.
I'm doing a google search for maven archetypes and was expecting to find a
long list of archetypes. Instead I found definitions of the term and a
section on creating archetypes.
Back in fall of 2005 (or was it winter 2006?) m2 did not have many
archetypes yet. I was guessing by now someone would of ported all the m1
archetypes (or whatever they were called) to m2. Has this happened?
I found one at http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-webapp.html and
I'll try this out soon.
I was specifically hoping to find an EJB, SWT, Swing and a boatload of web
archetypes like tapestry, spring and other MVCs.

Try again, sometimes the repository has issues redirecting you. The file
is there (it's not a file not found error), but something else has gone
wrong.

I just downloaded maven 2.0.4 and put the bin directory in my path.
As per the instructions at
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-webapp.html I issued the following
command:
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-webapp
-DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp
This seemed to work. I then type "cd my-webapp".
Then I do this (see below) and I get an error.
What am I doing wrong? Do I just need to try it again later because a
repository is offline?
I did a quick google search for the error and apparently someone else is
getting similar errors. However, I could not find a resolution.
Thanks,
Siegfried
