Jonathan Volfson commented on MDEP-645: --------------------------------------- Is this mojo looking for any artifact the user specifies or an artifact that should be within the current project? > List classes in a given artifact > -------------------------------- > > Key: MDEP-645 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-645 > Project: Maven Dependency Plugin > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: John Lin > Priority: Minor > Labels: intern > > When I want to list all the classes in a given artifact, I have to use > {{jar}} command to show files in the corresponding .jar file. > For example, I want to list all the classes in the artifact > {code} > org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.6 > {code} > I have to run > {code} > jar tf > ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.jar > {code} > This method has some disadvantages: > # The jar file may not be downloaded, so it may not be in > {{~/.m2/repository}}. > # It's kind of tedious to type such a long filename. > # The output is shown in raw filenames, e.g., > {{org/apache/commons/lang3/SystemUtils.class}}, but I generally want a > package + class name {{org.apache.commons.lang3.SystemUtils}}. > So I would expect a goal called {{show}} with an argument {{artifact}}, so I > can type > {code} > mvn dependency:show -Dartifact=org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.6 > {code} > to show > {code} > org.apache.commons.lang3.CharUtils > org.apache.commons.lang3.RandomStringUtils > ... > {code} > What do you guys think?
