Maven license plugin
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Does anyone have an opinion on the maven license plugin (http://code.google.com/p/maven-license-plugin/)? I'm trying to wrap up the gadget container code clean up for contribution and would like to use it or some other nice tool to insert the Apache headers (http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#headers) in our code without breaking XML, JSP, etc.
Staging area is http://vigyan.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vigyan/rave-sandbox/, by the way.
Thanks--
Marlon

That's not a mispelling. I wrote the licence insertion code and I'm
English so it's correct as "licence" ;-)

I don't know about that one. Sounds like an addition in a later version.

You create your own Jira accounts (you will need an admin to assign them
rights to Rave, but you don't need that to submit a bug to RAT)

Rat's command line didn't insert license headers, either, so I set out to debug the source code in fine Apache fashion. org.apache.rat.Report.java has two bugs:
* They misspell "license" as "licence" in their options, so "--addLicense" doesn't work, but "-a" is OK.
* More seriously, the logic of the option parsing is not good: if you don't specify a stylesheet, you get sent to a broken version of report() that throws away your other command line options.
This raises another question: do we have jira accounts?

I know I only ever implemented it as a command line, but don't know if
anyone has added this to the maven plugin.
However, why do you need it in the plugin? It's only done once right?
If you really want it to happen in mvn surely mvn can run a java app?

The links were a helpful start, but is there any way to insert the Apache header in appropriate files with the maven plugin? That is, I'm looking for the maven pom equivalent to the command line described at http://incubator.apache.org/rat/apache-rat/index.html.

For Apache Portals we have RAT configured in our Maven master pom in a separate
"rat" profile so we can run a check any time we want, especially before doing a
release.

Re: Maven license plugin
Posted by Ross Gardler <rg...@apache.org>.
I have no opinion on that plugin, I've not used it. I would say be
cautious as you have to make sure the headers are only inserted into
files that we own copyright on (not files from other projects for example).
The ASF has a project that will check for the correct licenses and,
optionally, add a license header. I use that. This is a really useful
tool, because once setup right it will stop us forgetting to add license
headers. However, it has to be set up right as I mention above.

I'm trying to wrap up the gadget container code clean up for contribution and would like to use it or some other nice tool to insert the Apache headers (http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#headers) in our code without breaking XML, JSP, etc.
