Hello!
I'm working on Maven plugin for building project using 3rd party tools.
Problem:
My plugin (PLUGIN) is used to build project (PROJECT).
When building PROJECT my PLUGIN need to use RESOURCES (file skeletons,
etc) .
I want the RESOURCES to be in separate artifact refered from PLUGIN.
Reason for this requirement:
PROJECT is being built using 3rd party tools (ant scripts and java
libraries). I want to develop Maven plugin using those tools.
Tools have to be set up in proper directories and run against
PROJECT's resources. Solution I came with is to put 3rd party
resources into artifact (RESOURCE), and use them in my PLUGIN. If
something will change I will only need to publish new artifact for 3rd
party tools. So, during the build PLUGIN need to get RESOURCE
artifact, expand and start the tool.
Question:
How to referer to PLUGIN's pom.xml and read RESOURCE artifact during
PROJECT's build?
Maven model classes are representing PROJECT's pom.xml not PLUGIN's
(MavenProject.getArtifacts()).
Question 2:
Is there way to put own properties on <dependency> in pom.xml? I want
to distinguish RESOURCE from other dependencies.
This is what I'm missing from M1

Regards,
Marcin.
