RE: Any interest in a maven-properties-plugin?
I'd also find very useful a goal (or an option to the existing write-properties goal) that echoes all properties, or a set of specified properties, to the console - along the same line as the echoproperties Ant task (http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/echoproperties.html). This would be handy for two purposes: 1) debugging the build 2) printing certain properties (e.g. java.version) during the build for informational purposes | -Original Message- | From: Zarar Siddiqi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2006 10:09 AM | To: users@maven.apache.org | Subject: Re: Any interest in a maven-properties-plugin? | | | It is going through the tedious process of being accepted as | a plugin.

It is going through the tedious process of being accepted as a plugin. Vote for it here: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MOJO-535 The source can also be found in JIRA. ertnutler wrote: > > i'm interested in using this plugin, but i can't checkout the source or > browse the repository from the project home page. has it been removed? > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Any-interest-in-a-maven-properties-plugin--tf2454363.html#a7011829 Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Any interest in a maven-properties-plugin?
Once you invoke the plugin on dev.properties, any properties in the file will become part of the build. So if the property file contained: var1=value1 var2=value2 It would be the equivalent of you declaring the following in your pom.xml or settings.xml: value1 value2 So you can either: A) specify one property file which contains all your properties OR B) declare them manually in your pom.xml or settings.xml Note that you don't have to do both A and B, just one of them. I like the simplicity of A and the power to have multiple property files is also nice.

Re: Any interest in a maven-properties-plugin?
I have a question about this plugin is this going to allow me to pull a file from the local machine: c:/etc/config/dev.properties Then put those parameters into scope of the build.

Re: Any interest in a maven-properties-plugin?
I think there is certainly some interest in this kind of plugin. In particular, the write-project-properties functionality might be useful to build up properties files used by Spring etc. However, it should be named properties-maven-plugin, as it does not originate from the Maven Dev team.

Any interest in a maven-properties-plugin?
I've written a plugin that serves as a good utility in handling properties. Given the many questions on this mailing list about handling properties for different environments and I/O'ing them from files, I think this would help in alleviating this problem.

This would be nice for those of us that store environment specific information in different property files. 2. write-project-properties: Writes project properties to a given file.
