---------------------------------------
Summary: Share ignore information between different RAT tools
Key: RAT-554
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-554
Project: Apache RAT
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Slawomir Jaranowski
We use Maven {{apache-rat-plugin}} to verify project files.
Some of files in project can be accepted for missing license, like test code,
simple configurations and so on ....
To achieve it we use excludes configuration for Maven plugin, so build pass
with success.
Configuration for Maven project can be in project root pom, modules pom or in
external parent pom ... it is inherited in effective pom.
Next code in project is archived int source artifact.
Now when I testing ATR (https://release-test.apache.org/) I put such source
archive to release proces ... and ART which use CLI RAT tool report about
missing licenses in many files ... configuration from Maven project is not used
by CLI.
It will be helpful if different RAT tools like Maven plugin, Ant task, CLI can
share configuration in some way.
One proposition which I see is to produce report by RAT maven plugin about
verification and attach it in source archive.
