Maven plugin-build
Hi,
[Some nonsense background, feel free to skip ahead] I'm new to this
list. I've been looking over the source of Maven and Jelly the last
couple of days, and am excited about these two projects. I think there
is tremendous potential, and the project has already come a long way
since the last time I looked at it. I plan on incorporating maven into
some of my existing projects, and getting my co-workers to adopt it as a
standard. I also hope to contribute to the project, as much as
possible.
With that said I'm up and running. I ran into problems building
individual plugins in Mavens repository (src/plugins-build dir). I was
able to build all of them at once, but wanted to build them individually
by name. I found no way to do this from src/plugins-build directory,
but found that there was a plugin-build in the maven.xml of the main
directory. However this did not work. I'm not sure if this is a
problem due to my environment (Cygwin + WinXP) or if others are having
similar problems.
I've modified the two maven.xml files. I feel that this way is a little
cleaner (correct me if I'm wrong, like I said above I'm new :-), and now
it works. Anyway, after looking through most of the documentation, I
felt that it was a cleaner solution.
Attached are the diffs.

Yeah. I saw your CVS commit.

I realized this after looking through the Plugin-Plugin source.
Thanks for your help.

RE: Maven plugin-build
Posted by "Stanley,Michael P." <ms...@mitre.org>.
Ok. I just used the Plugin-Plugin and it did what I wanted, you are
correct.
But then I wonder why have the "maven:plugin-build" goal in the maven's
root maven.xml file?

Like Kurt said,

so change the source of one of the existing plugins in src/plugins-build,
and from the plugin dir, e.g. src/plugins-build/java, run:
maven plugin

We should remove maven:plugin-build. maven plugin does that from the
plugin directory. And that plugin does much more too.

RE: Maven plugin-build
Posted by "Stanley,Michael P." <ms...@mitre.org>.
I'm not interested in installing (deploying) a plugin into my
MAVEN_HOME.
I'm interested in modifying the source of an existing plugin, and
building it to see if it compiles, or create a new one.
There is a goal in the main maven.xml file named "maven:plugin-build"
with the description -> " Build a plugin by name from $${plugin.name}
into an installable jar "
This is exactly what I want to do (instead of "maven:plugins-build"
which builds all of them and takes time).
However, the current "maven:plugin-build" doesn't work (at least not in
my enviornment). The patch I submitted does. In addition, the patch I
submitted allows you to do it from the plugin-build/ directory (similar
to the existing goal "build-plugins")

Re: Maven plugin-build
Posted by Kurt Schrader <ks...@karmalab.org>.
The Maven Plugin-Plugin has the following goals:
[plugin] : Build and install a plugin
deploy ..................... Install an unpacked version of the plugin
generate-docs .............. Generate navigation, goals and properties docs
generate-goals ............. Generate goals.xml for the plugin
generate-navigation ........ Generate navigation.xml for the plugin
generate-properties ........ Generate properties.xml for the plugin
install .................... Install the plugin in Maven's plugins dir
One of those ought to work for ya.
