Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package Name : maven-repo-helper-extras * Version : 0.1 * License : Apache-2.0 * Programming Lang: Java * Description : Additional plugins complementing maven-repo-helper * URL : https://salsa.debian.org/seamlik-guest/maven-repo-helper-extras
This package provides 2 Debhelper plugins that makes maintaining Maven packages
easier. They are:
* mh_shlibdeps: Calculates package dependencies based on Maven metadata.
* mh_genlaunchers: Generates Java launcher scripts based on Maven metadata.
"mh_shlibdeps" works just like "dh_shlibdeps". It examines the Maven artifacts
installed by a package and generate "${maven:Depends}" in a
"<package>.substvars" file.
"mh_genlaunchers" generates a Java program launcher script based on a
"<package>.maven-launchers" file. It has a syntax like:
usr/bin/mh_shlibdeps org.debian.maven.Shlibdeps
org.debian:maven-debian-utils:debian
This file specifies the launcher location, main class name and the Maven
artifact providing said main class.
The reason why I invented a new project instead of adding them to
"maven-repo-helper" is that I wanted to implement it using upstream code (e.g.
maven-resolver [1]) and in pure Java (without shell script like "javahelper").
