Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Plugin
Affects Versions: 2.0
Environment: Apache Maven 3.0.3 (r1075438; 2011-02-28 18:31:09+0100)
Maven home: /usr/local/maven
Java version: 1.6.0_24, vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
Default locale: fr_FR, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "2.6.35.12-90.fc14.x86_64", arch: "amd64", family:

Reporter: Fred Bricon
Currently, running mvn archetype:generate returns 390 archetypes, on my machine.
By default, th window buffer of my terminal isn't set big enough so I can see
the first archetypes in the list.
So, I think it would be really useful to have a CLI arg allowing us to filter
the archetypes containing a string.
Ex: running {code}mvn archetype:generate -Dfilter=webapp{code} would return
only the archetypes having webapp in their artifactId.
