Here is an update on the hackyMaven module.
I started on my own independent hackyMaven module without knowing that Tim
already started on one. However, I did get the Junit and LOCC sensors
running. Basically, the Maven sensors are jelly wrappers around the Ant
bases sensors. So, if there is an Ant based sensor implementation we should
be able to write a Maven sensor.
I can start/try to integrate the current maven sensors into Version
7. But, there are some issues associated with a Maven sensor: (1) how do I
write a unit test for the sensor? my maven sensors are written in jelly and
contain no java code. (2) do I write have to write installer code for the
maven sensor, since maven retrieves the jar files automatically?
I believe that Tim started on his own hackyMaven module and duplicates some
of the work I already did. I haven't looked at his work very much, but I
will shortly.
Aaron's To Do List:
1) take a look at Tim's hackyMaven and compare that with my hackyMaven
2) implement a new LOCC Maven sensor based on the best approach from the
two versions. I'll probably put this in hackySensor_Locc

Tim,
I just read your post on the codehaus blog site about sending information to
hackystat from a maven build ? or at least that is what I am assuming you
are doing. I have been using hackystat to collect project metrics for about
9 months now and want to keep using it. I am also looking at migrating our
project to maven2, but have not seen anything on how (other than ant) to
send information to hackystat.
If this is what you are looking at I would appreciate any insight you might
have to share.
Thanks,
Jim Christenson
Greetings, Jim,
Glad to hear that Hackystat is useful to you. Currently, we are in the
final stages of development of Version 7.0, which should make things like
Maven integration significantly easier than before. Integration with
Maven is something we would very much like to provide, though right now
all of our resources are focussed on the new major version. Aaron Kagawa
is another developer who has worked on Hackystat-Maven integration in the
past, and perhaps we will have additional words of insight on what is involved.
Cheers,
Philip
