Hi,
I'm working on a Commons sandbox component which is written mostly in
JavaScript. I currently have an ant build which includes tasks to do the
following:
1. combine all of the JavaScript modules into a single file
2. minify the combined JavaScript file using the Google Closure
JavaScript compiler
3. compile the combined JavaScript file to a single Java class file
using the Rhino jsc compiler
4. create an executable JAR containing the class file.
I'm interested in working toward releasing the project, and so I'm
trying to determine what would be the most elegant way to now build this
project with Maven. Based on my understanding of the tasks performed by
Maven when staging a release, it seems to me that the compiler task
would need to be made to delegate to tasks 1-3 of the project's Ant
script. After the class file has been created with jsc, I believe the
Maven jar and assembly tasks should work as though the project were a
regular Java project.
If my understanding so far is correct, I'm wondering what is the best
way to override or customize the behaviour of Maven's compiler task so
that it delegates to Ant (probably via the antrun Maven plugin)?
I'd appreciate any guidance anyone can provide. Thanks,
Jake
