stack commented on HBASE-2099: ------------------------------ Looking at the lightweight patch: + Our groupid is org.apache.hbase. I think that should be org.apache.hadoop.hbase. Will this groupid put us into the right relative location in the apache maven repo? Here's apache snapshots: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/apache/hadoop/. We should be going into this directory I'd say. + The artifactid for core is hbase-core. Currently our hbase jar is named hbase-X.X.X.jar. if artifactId is hbase-core, doesn't that mean the core jar will be named hbase-core-X.X.X.jar. Can we keep our old name? Maybe the parent artifactId could be hadoop-hbase and then this core module's could be plain hbase? + On these: {code} + <zookeeper.version>3.2.2</zookeeper.version> + <thrift.version>r771587</thrift.version> {code} Can't we just check these in? I remember that in maven for certain dependencies, you could override the pull from a remote repository and instead have it read from a local directory. Is that still so? (I might be remembering this wrong). + We can add in licensing and better project description stuff later, no worries. > Move build to Maven > ------------------- > > Key: HBASE-2099 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2099 > Project: Hadoop HBase > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: stack > Attachments: HBASE-2099.2.full.patch, HBASE-2099.2.patch, > HBASE-2099.patch > > > This issue is for discussing pros and cons of moving hbase build to Apache > Maven. > Maven, if you take on its paradigm, does a lot for you.

Maven would have these as distinct projects pulling in their hbase > dependency or, if you wanted to take on the maven subproject notion, then, > hbase would be at same level in build as the contribs -- it would be a > subproject too just built before the others. > Anyone interested in working on this issue? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
