Hervé Boutemy commented on MNG-6347:
------------------------------------
if you add custom phases in pom.xml, you have worse issue: each project will
configure his own little local phase
if you create an extension, you add more chance to reuse the extension between
projects (and create the phases superset that matches multiple project needs),
isn't it?
notice I think it would be good to add a few phases in Maven core for a future
release, to avoid this: we'll need to define which phases would be useful
separate topic:
bq. Also the fact you can define the same plugin N times without having a
warning
you mean you *cannot*, isn't it?
> Support custom module lifecycle
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-6347
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6347
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: core
> Reporter: Romain Manni-Bucau
> Priority: Major
>
> With front builds wired to maven it starts to be challenging to have a
> functional lifecycle,
> common workaround is to use {{generate-sources}} to setup the node
> environment (install node + npm install), {{process-sources}} to enrich it
> with project specific data ({{cp myjslib src/main/frontend/node_module}}),
> {{generate-resources}} to generate the application (npm build) and
> build-helper-maven-plugin to add the generated folder
> ({{src/main/frontend/dist}}) in {{META-INF/resources}} of the produced jar.
> This is just a simple example but it can be much more complex and it is
> harder and harder to insert steps with the limited phases of the default
> lifecycle. Also the fact you can define the same plugin N times without
> having a warning means it is sometimes not possible to have the right
> execution order.
> To solve that it would be nice to have a way to specify the order of the
> executions or add custom phases in between existing ones directly into the
> project - without having to do it in a plugin/extension.
