sar plugin
Hello,
I would like write a plugin for maven to create Avalon Phoenix SARs
(SARs are WAR-like archives for deployment in Avalon Phoenix instead of
Tomcat.)
There is no functionality at present and I've tested the goals in the my
project maven.xml, but it would be useful to have them as a plugin.
It would be essentially similar to the war-plugin.
Questions:
1. Is this plugin of interest? Ie, if I submit it as a patch, will it
get included in a next release.
2. I've tried out added the src to src/plugin-build/sar and it all
builds smoothly (from build-bootstrap.xml) and the reactor seems to pick
up all it needs.
Anything else that needs doing to add a new plugin?
Cheers, Mauro

Unfortunately - yep. They are completely different beasts.

Are these sar's different from the sar's JBoss uses to deploy Service's?

Another option would be to put it with phoenix itself though I am not sure how
easy it is to maintain a plugin outside Maven at this stage.

Hi,
I attach the src of a first cut of the sar plugin -
with associated docs.
At the moment it has two main goals:
sar:metagenerate
sar:sar
I've tested it on a real app and it produces the correct sar.
Any other test suggestion is welcome.
I also attach a compiled plugin which can be dropped in to the plugins
directory.
Should the plugin not be of sufficient interest to the maven community,
I'll put it on maven-plugins.sf.net.
Cheers, m.

If you can, add the production of the artifact to the touchstone build and
compare it against a known good artifact.

Yep, once the jar is placed in $MAVEN_HOME/plugins, you'll be fine next
time maven runs.

tests: I haven't been able to find a clear pattern of testing

src/test/mock-plugins has some mock plugins which are not related
to any specific plugin.
What is the recommended way or testing a new plugin, apart from
checking that the goal produced the desired artifacts?
Can you confirm that is no configuration file which needs to
be updated for the presence of a new plugin, as the reactor will
be it up automatically.
Thanks, Mauro
