------------------------------------------
Summary: Archetype version range support
Key: ARCHETYPE-564
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-564
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Archetypes
Affects Versions: 3.0.1
Reporter: Alejandro Torras
Hi,
Currently I'm only able to fetch a versioned archetype with the following
situations:
# Not specifying an archetypeVersion at all.
# Specifying a fixed version (i.e. 1.7.3).
# Specifying the _LATEST_ version.
I don't know if there are more choices about it, but IMHO I think it could be
great to define a version range for archetypes (as it's currently done with
dependencies). An example could be:
{noformat}
mvn -B archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.acme.archetype
-DarchetypeArtifactId=plugin-archetype-rest -DartifactId=AppRest
-DgroupId=com.acme.app -Dversion=1.0 '-DarchetypeVersion=(,1.8.0)'
{noformat}
Thank you!
