Greetings, Jim,
Below find Aaron's status on his version of hackyMaven. I am also cc'ing
Eric Pugh, who I also think has worked on a version of hackyMaven. And of
course, Tim Shadel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has worked on one.
So, it sounds like there's lots of (not quite complete) code to play with.
In version 7, one thing we'll need to decide is whether the Hackystat-Maven
integration is as a 'sensor' (in which case the module would be
hackySensor_Maven), or as an 'application' (in which case the module would
be hackyApp_Maven).
As Aaron points out, if it's a sensor then it would make sense to use the
installer package to install it (this is for uniformity with the other
sensors, and so that sensor.properties can be managed correctly etc.)
Perhaps we need some kind of "HackyMaven summit" to figure out where to go
with all this?
Eric, can you provide a brief summary of what you've come up with?
Cheers,
Philip

Subject: Re: [HACKYSTAT-DEV-L] Fwd: Hackystat & Maven
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
thanks, aaron

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
