Re: Generate list of plugins and their versions used in a build
So what we need to do is put together a list of all the components that went into a build (so all the supporting maven plugins) Then I don't quite understand why the output of mvn help:effective-pom isn't what you need. Unless... you don't have the site plugin version locked down somewhere in your pom hierarchy? no, we don't lock it down in the pom, maybe we should. effective-pom is not showing the site plugin version. Anyway we ideally need to get a deep list of the plugins and their dependencies. I am guessing a custom mojo will be required for this. If you're using Maven 2.0.9 or later, it should be there as it's in pluginManagement in the super pom. Of course, that means you have to not using 2.0.9 and we will be looking at moving across to it. thanks for your help! -- aman -- Wendy -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Generate-list-of-plugins-and-their-versions-used-in-a-build-tp19895592p19941994.html Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Generate list of plugins and their versions used in a build
Thanks for the responses. Unfortunately 'mvn help:effective-pom' does not quite do what we need it to. Here's an example, trying to get a list of all the site plugins and their versions used is a challenge as this is not covered by effective-pom. Doing mvn -cpu and groking the output would be one way to get this I guess. thanks! -- aman Michael McCallum-3 wrote: mvn help:effective-pom On Thu, 09 Oct 2008 22:16:39 aman kohli wrote: Hi, For a build, I need to generate the plugins used and their versions.

If so, the metadata file should list them: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-site-plugin/ If you explain the problem you're trying to solve, (why do you want this list?) you may get some other suggestions. -- Wendy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Generate list of plugins and their versions used in a build
So what we need to do is put together a list of all the components that went into a build (so all the supporting maven plugins) this allows a couple of things: * reproducability of the build environment [this is required to help us re-construct a build] * knowing what went into a build so if a later plugin breaks we know a good roll back point : this happened to us with a site plugin and it took a lot of work to find a previous version that worked. hth and thanks! -- aman Wendy Smoak-3 wrote: On Sat, Oct 11, 2008 at 1:41 PM, aman kohli [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks for the responses.

Of course, that means you have to use Maven 2.0.9 again later if you want to reproduce the build. You can get a bit closer by locking down plugin versions in your own organization level parent pom, so things change less if you switch Maven versions. -- Wendy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Generate list of plugins and their versions used in a build
Couldn't you parse the output of mvn help:effective-pom? Or do you need another format? Maybe it could be another goal on the help plugin. What is your use case and what do you need?

Re: Generate list of plugins and their versions used in a build
I can't believe you said that. :-/ Just fork the mojo and actually write the output to a file or even better patch the help plugin to 'attach' its output to the artifact.
