The following comment has been added to this issue: Author: Created: Mon, 18 Aug 2003 4:17 PM Body: Sure, just unzip my zip into your .maven/plugins directory.
Then, all you have to do is run "maven genapp". It will ask you for a template. The only one I sent with it was "default" so you have to use that. It will then prompt you for an id, name, and package for your new app. If you want to make a new template, create a .maven/template directory and copy the .maven/plugins/maven-genapp-plugin-1.0/plugin-resources/default directory into there. Rename it to whatever the new name of your template will be. Then, change the project.xml and files to whatever you want. For my purposes, I stripped out all the .java files and the .properties file since I don't need those. I changed all the information in project.xml to suit my company. Finally, call "maven genapp" in a new directory and specify the name of your new template. --------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=MAVEN-426 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: MAVEN-426 Summary: Allow genapp to support multiple templates Type: Improvement Status: Unassigned Priority: Major Time Spent: Unknown Remaining: Unknown Project: maven Fix Fors: 1.1 Versions: 1.0-beta-9 1.1 Assignee: Reporter: Brian Ewins Created: Wed, 14 May 2003 10:27 AM Updated: Mon, 18 Aug 2003 3:08 PM Environment: all Description: At the moment the genapp plugin is pretty rudimentary, you only get the 'standard' maven template project. I'd like maven to support multiple project templates, to make it easier to (for example) set up a beginner's webapp, ejb, maven-plugin project; a project with a standard setup for a company (logos, developers, scm); etc etc. Attached is some code to support this proposal. It changes the structure of the genapp 'plugin.resources' directory so that it more closely matches a normal project: plugin-resources/: project.properties project.xml src plugin-resources/src: conf java test plugin-resources/src/conf: app.properties plugin-resources/src/java: App.java plugin-resources/src/test: AbstractTestCase.java AppTest.java NaughtyTest.java Next we identify the three kinds of resource which need copied - those which need 'repackaged' like java, test; those which need filtered (project.xml), and those which just need copied (everything else). I do this by adding a plugin.properties with the lines: maven.genapp.repackage=java,test maven.genapp.filter=project.xml Finally I updated the plugin.jelly (attached). The plugin.jelly was written for b8, (hence the missing 'ant:' stuff) and takes an extra parameter: maven -Dpackage=blah -Dtemplate=example genapp this will try to copy the 'example' project from the user's home dir. This code isn't really sophisticated enough, it should try the user's home dir first then fall back on the plugin.resources dir, with the 'default' output of genapp moved to a project called 'default'; this would let maven ship with more examples (including a reactor example!) while giving the user a way to override them. If the comments on this idea involve more changes to the plugin I'd be happy to oblige. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
