Good day,
That goal is not finished yet. It doesn't completely make an
archetype correctly and doesn't install it.
I'm trying to study how to use maven-archetype-plugin's
create-from-projectgoal. As of now, these are the things that i know
about it:
* it creates an archetype given an existing maven project
* you need a ${basedir}/src/main/archetype/archetype.properties and
that
needs to state the value for "package".
* it generates the following output
target
|-- archetype-project
| `-- src
| |-- main
| | `-- java
| | `-- <java main files>
| `-- test
| `-- java
| `-- <java test files>
|-- filtered-project
| `-- src
| |-- main
| | `-- java
| | `-- <java main files in package format>
| `-- test
| `-- java
| `-- <java test files in package format>
|-- archetype.jar
|-- archetype.xml
`-- pom.xml
and the archetype.jar contains the following
archetype.jar
|-- archetype-resources
| |-- src
| | |-- main
| | | `-- java
| | | `-- <java main files>
| | `-- test
| | `-- java
| | | `-- <java test files>
| `-- pom.xml
|-- META-INF
| |-- maven
| | `-- archetype.xml
| |-- archetype.xml
| |-- MANIFEST.MF
`-- src
|-- main
| `-- java
| `-- <java main files>
`-- test
`-- java
`-- <java test files>
However, what will happen now after that? Do I install it (mvn
install)?
I've tried it as well and the archetype I created via
create-from-projectcannot be detected.
Thus, this boils down to my very simple question, am I using the goal
properly? If not, how should I have used it? ^_^
(btw, I can create an archetype using Apache Maven's Guide to Creating
Archetype<http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-creating-
archetypes.html>.
I'm just interested with how the create-from-project works.)
Thanks a bunch ^_^
