Scott Carey commented on AVRO-890:
----------------------------------
For a released artifact, this is not a problem. The archetype will work fine
because it won't point to a SNAPSHOT.
In the case of testing the archetype then, it either needs to point to a
released version, or we must install avro-maven-plugin before the archetype
plugin forks the build.
Or we could release it and version the archetype separately from the main
project, but that has many other serious drawbacks.
> Maven archetype for creating Avro service projects

> Key: AVRO-890
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-890
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.5.4
> Reporter: Stephen Gargan
> Assignee: Stephen Gargan
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: archetype, maven
> Fix For: 1.6.0

> I've put together the beginnings of an maven archetypes subproject in the
> java module to help folks kickstart avro projects. The first archetype
> creates a simple avro based ordering service using the netty transport and
> includes an integration test for the service. The service is very naive,
> though its really only the plumbing that is important and the example is
> illustrative enough to get people going.
> Once built, it can be added to the local archetypes catalog via
> mvn archetype:crawl
> and then will be available via the generate plugin
> mvn archetype:generate
> or it can be invoked directly as follows
> mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeArtifactId=avro-service-archetype
> -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.avro -DgroupId=org.simple
> -DartifactId=simple-service -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT
> The parent pom contains common config for generating a pom for the archetype
> that references the current avro build version. This takes some slight of
> hand with maven resources to insert the version and will be reusable for
> other archetypes in the future.
> I intend putting together a map-reduce archetype soon and am open to
> suggestions for other archetypes that might be useful. Perhaps one that
> included the code from AVRO-883 to kick start a basic serialization project?
