Maven Site Generation for foreign projects
Hi, does the maven-site-plugin support the generation of websites that include artifacts (that are downloaded into the site directory during maven build from the maven repository) and a download page for them? I have a POM that includes modules (dependent from the profile that is currently active) and do not want to configure this pom for site generation. Instead, I have another project for site generation that can refer to the modules (artifacts within the maven repository). The result should be a web site that hosts these artifacts incl. a download page. My current solution is - use the maven dependency plugin to copy the artifacts into the site output directory (path is managed with one maven property per artifact) - download.apt.vm that creates one link per artifact using the maven property But this is not that generic as it could be. Is there any support for that?

Re: Maven Site Generation for foreign projects
Hi Ralf, You should be able to create your own pages to do just about anything you want - but you could lose the automatic reporting that Maven supports per module, if you are not generating the site from the module poms themselves. Why do you not want to configure the build pom for site generation? It shouldn’t add all that much.

My initial reaction is that this is actually pointing to the directory above your project, which would cause the file not to be found. But in general, I presume that you are getting some kind of error message, or else can get the test to dump the path it is using to find the property file. If you could show us that and compare it with the proper path, that would be useful information.

How to add a dependency programmatically for the compile phase?
Hi, I would like to know how to add a dependency (such as a jar) into the project's list of compile time dependencies programmatically within a Mojo. Benoit should probably have posted this in Maven Users rather than Maven Dev, so I'm reposting here. We are developing a Mojo that needs to add some dependencies into the project list of compile time dependencies programmatically. I was sure that I've seen code that did this, but I can't find it now. Can anyone point us in the right direction? William -- Benoit's original post -- I require to do this programmatically because the user set a dependency of type aar(1) which itself contains a jar. This jar needs to be known by the compile phase (in order to succeed) Note: the compile phase knows about the aar dependency.

Re: How to add a dependency programmatically for the compile phase?
I don't have the code at hands on how to do what you're asking, but I wanted to stress that changing the dependency list in a plugin will only affect that list during the build where your plugin is executed. Any consumers of your artifact (from the repo) will not get this dependency, as the plugin is then not executed! Maybe you can solve this with a custom packaging type and a special ArtifactHandler, but I'm not sure. /Anders On Thu, Dec 19, 2013 at 5:25 AM, William Ferguson william.fergu...@xandar.com.au wrote: Hi, I would like to know how to add a dependency (such as a jar) into the project's list of compile time dependencies programmatically within a Mojo.

Re: Maven Site Generation for foreign projects
Hi, thanks for your reply. The automatic reporting is not that important for me. More important is the independency from the build configuration that is done within the aggregator pom. In other words, building the project with all its modules is one thing, creating the website containing the project (or parts of it, or multiple versions built by using different profiles) is more important for me. If I need parts of the automatic reporting, I could create the site for the projects too and collect them during the website build. But this would require to configure the site generation equal to the website. (I use the Reflow Maven Skin for example) So what I need is a site generation where I have the flexibility to choose some artifacts manually instead of using the artifacts. And it would be great only to configure the site generating project, not the included artifacts/modules. I know that it could be done easily with parent poms, but this is very invasive IMHO.
