+Writing a Consumer Plugin
+
+ For a sample custom consumer, you can checkout the archiva-consumer-plugin at
the archiva sandbox in the SVN repository:
+
++----+
+http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/sandbox/trunk/archiva/archiva-consumer-plugin
++----+
+
+ Below are the steps on how to create a custom repository consumer and plug it
in Archiva:
+
+ [[1]] Create a project for your component.
+
+ [[2]] Declare your class or in this case, consumer as a component as shown in
the example below. This
+ should be put at the class level.
+
++----+
+Ex.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
role="org.apache.maven.archiva.consumers.KnownRepositoryContentConsumer"
+ role-hint="discover-new-artifact"
+ instantiation-strategy="per-lookup"
+
+where,
+ role: the interface that your class implements
+ role-hint: the lookup name of the component (your class/consumer)
+ instantiation-strategy: how your class will be instantiated
++----+
+
+ [[3]] Make sure to add the snippet below in the <build> section of the
project's pom. This is needed to
+ generate the components.xml.
+
++----+
+<plugin>
+ <groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
+ <artifactId>plexus-maven-plugin</artifactId>
+ <version>1.3.5</version>
+ <executions>
+ <execution>
+ <id>generate</id>
+ <goals>
+ <goal>descriptor</goal>
+ </goals>
+ </execution>
+ </executions>
+</plugin>
++----+
+
+ [[4]] Package your project by executing 'mvn clean package'
+
+ [[5]] Let's say you are using the apache-archiva-1.0-bin.tar.gz to run
Archiva. Unpack
+ the binaries then go to bin/linux-x86-32/ (assuming you are running on
Linux), then execute
+ './run.sh console'. Then stop or shutdown Archiva after it started. (This
is necessary to unpack
+ the war file.)
-Writing a Custom Repository Consumer
+ [[6]] Copy the jar file you created in step 4 in
apache-archiva-1.0/apps/archiva/webapp/lib/
- :STUB: This is a documentation stub.
+ [[7]] Add the necessary configurations in archiva.xml (in this case, add
'discover-new-artifact' as a
+ <knownContentConsumer>)
+ [[8]] Start up Archiva again.
