[jira] Commented: (ARCHETYPE-315) Provide the archetype plugin the ability to filter a group id into a dynamically created source path

["Ian Simpson (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

Ian Simpson commented on ARCHETYPE-315:
---------------------------------------

Yeah, sorry, should have commented on this ticket.  I wound up finding this on some stack overflow article out there, which, to your point, is a clear indicated that this feature isn't documented well at all.  The rest of the Architecture team at my employer was actually surprised by this feature, having never found it themselves and relying on post-archetype shell scripts instead.

I'll get off my soap box now :)

> I'm not sure if this feature exists in a form that I'm not aware of, or if it's on a roadmap, or not feasible at all...
> What I'd like is if there was an ability to dynamically create the path for your source files based on a filtered version of the package information.
> Currently, here's what would happen:
> My archetype is set up as
> src/main/resources/archetype-resources/src/main/java/__package__/Sample.java
> When this is filtered, you would get in your project:
> myproj/src/main/com.myproj/Sample.java
> What would be very useful is if you could filter that somehow so that you instead end up with:
> myproj/src/main/com/myproj/Sample.java
