Search around a lot for this type of functionality but I ended up writing my
own plugin to do this.

 This feature might help in my work. I need to generate/add artifact(s)

 I like to define an archetype to generate multi-module project, when 
 project is created from this archetype it creates parent project with 
 POM file and meta data/configuration file. Meta data in configuration 
 file determine number of submodules, and artifacts created in the parent 
 project.
 
 Let us look at my request using an example. maven-archetype-j2ee-simple 
 creates  JavaEE multi module project with sub modules ear, ejbs, 
 servelets etc. by default all the sub-modules are empty. I need little 
 variation of it, like to generate configuration file in 
 src\main\resources. This file is edited/configured by user, 
 configuration is input to create/edit/add artifacts to sub-modules.
 
 Does archetype plug-in help? or shall I write my own plug-in?

Re: archetype plug-in vs custom plug-in

2009-08-03 Thread Murali Pottlapelli

Hi All,
I see TBD next to Generate a sub module from an archetype at 
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-archetype-plugin. Is TBD for 
implementation or documentation?


Is it possible to control the files created in a sub-module? Is it also 
possible to sync the content in the files based on meta-data (generated 
property files)? Is there any example archetype to demonstrate the 
functionality?


How to invoke archetype plug-in from a program? Is it possible to invoke 
from another plug-in? example snippet would help


I have searched in glassfish users group, but did not find any help on 
archetype


Regards
Murali
