---------------------------------
Summary: Core mechanism for skipping mojos
Key: MNG-7092
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7092
Project: Maven
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Peter Palaga
The current practice is that mojo authors have to implement skipping on their
side. It is easy to do, but it has a couple of disadvantages:
* Not every mojo has a skip option
* The naming conventions differ among mojos
* Performance: the dependencies of the mojo need to be resolved, downloaded,
classes loaded and initialized, config injected only to eval the skip option
and do nothing. I have collected some numbers in
https://peter.palaga.org/2020/10/29/skipping-maven-mojos-properly.html .
I wonder if Maven core could provide a mechanism for skipping mojos without the
above drawbacks?
There could be some global naming convention, so that
{{-Dorg.my-org.my-maven-plugin.my-mojo.skip}} or just `-Dmy.my-mojo.skip` would
skip `my-mojo`.
WDYT?
