New goal to write classpath string with all dependencies from local repo ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MDEP-26 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-26 Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin Type: New Feature Versions: 1.1 Reporter: Anagnostopoulos Kostis Priority: Minor Hi to all, 'm wondering whether it would be usefull to make a new mojo that when executed it will output a text file containing the required classpath string to run a project directly from the local repository. For instance, the file would contain a classpath string like that : {noformat} /home/foo/.m2/repository/org/java/utils/util/util-1.0.jar:/home/foo/.m2/ .... {noformat} The result file could then be used like that: {noformat} java -cp `cat resultFile` MyClass {noformat} The new goal should maybe a sub-class of AbstractFromDependenciesMojo. In that case, the "useSubDirectoryPerType" and "useSubDirectoryPerArtifact" params should move to (copy/unpack)-dependencies mojo classes. Anyway, these params are only used by sub-classes, so, their definition should be propably inside of those. Next are the parameters of the mojo i propose: ---- goal name: dependency:printClasspath params: || Param Name || Type || Description | outputFile | File | The file to write the classpath string into. | | overwrite | boolean| If true, re-write file even when nothing has changed. | | includeTypes | String | Comma Separated list of Types to include. | | excludeTypes | String | Comma Separated list of Types to exclude | | includeProjectArtifact| boolean | see [this issue|http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-25]. | -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
