Vincent Massol commented on MENFORCER-83: ----------------------------------------- I have the exact same need. I've had to develop a custom enforcer rule that extends BannedDependencies, see https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-commons/blob/73c8404f08ba36136d08c48bbacc9b88f04a07e6/xwiki-commons-tools/xwiki-commons-tool-enforcer-dependencies/src/main/java/org/xwiki/tool/enforcer/XWikiBannedDependencies.java Thanks! > Banned dependencies should support regular expressions > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MENFORCER-83 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MENFORCER-83 > Project: Maven 2.x Enforcer Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Standard Rules > Affects Versions: 1.0-beta-1 > Reporter: Eric Lewis > > The includes and excludes of the bannedDependencies rule support wildcards, > but only for an entire section. > They should be enhanced to support regular expressions. > For instance instead of having > <includes> > <include>my.company:abc-api</include> > <include>my.company:def-api</include> > <include>my.company:ghi-api</include> > <include>my.company:jkl-api</include> > </includes> > one would specify > <includes> > <include>my.company:.*\-api</include> > </includes> > To be compatible, the wildcard '*' would be treated as regular expression '.*' -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
