Chesnay Schepler created FLINK-20792:
----------------------------------------
Summary: Allow shorthand invocation of spotless
Key: FLINK-20792
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-20792
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Build System
Affects Versions: 1.13.0, 1.11.4, 1.12.1
Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
Assignee: Chesnay Schepler
Fix For: 1.13.0, 1.11.4, 1.12.1
It is currently not possible to just run {{mvn spotless:check}}, but instead
one needs to use the fully qualified name of the plugin, i.e., {{mvn
com.diffplug.spotless:spotless-maven-plugin:check}}.
This is due to {{force-shading}}; this module is declared as a child of the
flink-parent pom (i.e., the root pom of the project), but is not actually
declaring that very module as it's parent.
This seems to throw of maven, which fails to retrieve the plugin information
from the parent.
(Essentially, flink-parent tells maven "run this plugin for each of my
children", maven asks child "so what should we actually do", child says "duh
ask my parent duh", but that parent is just some random dude that doesn't know
anything and maven doesn't know what to do.)
