Testing archetypes for MyFaces projects?
I was wondering if we would want to create maven archetypes for
setting up trinidad, tomahawk, and other projects as a war file that
users can use to start a test case. Basically it would create a war
pom with a single page and a single managed bean with jetty support
built in so that it would be easy to modify to get going.
By doing this and building a WIKI page we could simply point bug
reporters to the WIKI to give them instructions on how to build a
simple test case that would not be IDE or platform specific and help
with people that want to debug problems, but do not want to try each
time to extract how to reproduce a problem.
What do you all think?

Another option is to reduce the work on our side and just have an SVN branch:
1) user uses SVN checkout to get the branch with the test case for the
given project
2) user makes changes as needed
3) submit the test case as a zip, or better yet as "svn diff" output zipped
Is that better, or do you like the archetypes approach better?

hello,
@archetypes for each library with facelets:
+1
and it would be nice to clean-up the existing demos or provide demos with a
minimal config.

Re: Testing archetypes for MyFaces projects?
Posted by Andrew Robinson <an...@gmail.com>.
It looks like most of the work is done with the existing archetypes. I
think what would be nice:
Archetypes for each library (tomahawk, tobago, etc.)
Archetypes for each library with facelets (or just have comments in
the web.xml on how to convert the project to facelets)
And then a different wiki with simplified instructions on using this
for a bug. (hard-coded artifact and group IDs and other command line
settings so that the user does not have to be asked anything).
Then maybe there is a way in Jira when a new bug is being created to
point the user to the wiki page? Anyone know if this is possible?

Hi
Just for information purposes and as start point, what we have right now is
this wiki page:
http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/MyFaces_Archetypes_for_Maven
The archetypes available
myfaces-archetype-helloworld // myfaces 1.2 + tomahawk
myfaces-archetype-helloworld-facelets // myfaces 1.2 + facelets +
tomahawk
myfaces-archetype-helloworld-portlets // myfaces 1.2 + portlet
bridge
myfaces-archetype-jsfcomponents // simple components in the
old way, the next release will use myfaces builder plugin.
myfaces-archetype-trinidad // myfaces 1.2 +
trinidad
It could be good to know what other archetypes are useful and what other
wiki pages are needed, to contribute and make another release of this
project.
regards
Leonardo Uribe
