Tim Swast` commented on BEAM-442:
---------------------------------
An archetype would work, but the examples should describe how to run the
archetype.
Ideally, I'd be able to copy the example directly (and use my own parent),
though, especially if I wanted to do something similar to what the example is
showing.
> Examples demonstrate code, but not project configuration

> Deriving a possible issue from

> The above StackOverflow question illuminates the fact that the
> Dataflow-examples repository is not a demonstration of proper project
> configuration, but only code. Today there is not a separate examples
> repository for Beam, but just an examples module, so the issue is not
> highlighted.
> It is probably quite useful to have a starter project that actually has the
> dependencies set up correctly, not referencing the Beam parent pom, so users
> can clone it and get started. It could be in a separate repository or not -
> that aspect is actually orthogonal IMO.
