-----------------------------------------
Hi [~kishorekumar], this looks like the right Maven plugin to use:
https://github.com/marceloverdijk/lesscss-maven-plugin
The Maven configuration looks like this:
{code}
<plugin>
<groupId>org.lesscss</groupId>
<artifactId>lesscss-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.7.0.1.1</version>
<configuration>
<sourceDirectory>${project.basedir}/src/main/webapp/less</sourceDirectory>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}/css</outputDirectory>
<compress>true</compress>
<includes>
<include>main.less</include>
</includes>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>compile</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
{code}
This looks like it would compile all source files under the webapp/less source
directory to the target/css directory.
For a start, therefore, I recommend rearranging the layout of the
src/main/webapp files and folders to conform with this general convention. Do
the .less files need to be in the final war? If not, we may want to move them
out entirely, for example to some place like src/main/less.
I'll keep looking for an ant plugin we can use.
