 On the recommended book list mentioned earlier, I will in particular
 mention Maven by example
  http://www.sonatype.com/Support/Books/Maven-By-Example

The download page lists PDF and HTML versions.  I was able to build
myself an ePub version for my Sony PRS-T1 ebook reader, with:
 git clone https://github.com/sonatype/maven-example-en.git
 cd maven-example-en
 git checkout production
 mvn install

The mvn install command failed for me, while creating the PDF file (a
403 when trying to load the Docbook DTD, with HTTP, I think).  But ePub
succeeded, and the result was in
 maven-example-en/mvnex-epub/target/epub/public-book.epub

I ran the ePub file through an epub-epub conversion in calibre to get a
more pleasing result in the Sony: I first added some missing metadata
(authors, and some tags), then did the conversion, picking the cover
from the existing epub files (otherwise the cover showed up as a blank
in the Sony reader), and told it not to split on page breaks.

You sound like you can get the stuff done, so I beg you to spend a

Instead of this stuff bugging you, you will understand how to quickly

Otherwise next time you run into these problems you will have that

It is only that way because you need to know the basics.

You wont regret it.

Thank you.  I can do it, for sure.  I tend to read the docs and ask
questions at the same time, until I get my problem solved.  

The issue is  that these problems are peripheral to the problems I want to
solve, which is a secure promise-based distributed object messaging system.
Much more interesting and difficult in its own right.  This stuff, while
very powerful when done right, and necessary, is like keeping my apartment
clean or cooking dinner!  It is a chore.  ;-)

That said, I do like maven a lot.

FWIW, in my experience embracing maven patterns allows you to reduce

Re: noob confusion about dependencies and repositories

2012-10-06 Thread Steinar Bang
 Rob Withers reefed...@gmail.com:

 Here are my questions, I suppose:
   1.. How can I install murmur-events, even though pmd/findbugs is issuing 
 warnings?  The mvn install is failing.

What's the directory layout of your projects?  Where do you issue the
command?  What are the error messages you're getting.

   2.. Where is the local repository where these get installed?

On a linux/unix'ish machine, it is in $HOME/.m2/repository unless you've
configured it otherwise.

On a Windows XP machine it would typically be
 C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\.m2\repository

On a Vista/Windows 7/Windows 2008 Server and newer, it would typically
be in
 C:\users\yourusername\.m2\repository

   3.. Do I need to have a parent pom with two modules, one for each
   project? 

That would be the maven way, yes, structured so:

 murmur-top/
   pom.xml
   murmur-events/
 pom.xml
   murmur/
 pom.xml

If you structure your project this with POMs like this, you will have
the minimum configuration needed:
 murmur-top/pom.xml:
  project
modelVersion4.0.0/modelVersion
groupIdorg.murmur/groupId
artifactIdmurmur-top/artifactId
version1.0-SNAPSHOT/version
packagingpom/packaging

namemurmur-top/name
modules
  modulemurmur-events/module
  modulemurmur/module
/modules
  /project

 murmur-top/murmur-events/pom.xml:
  project
modelVersion4.0.0/modelVersion
parent
  groupIdorg.murmur/groupId
  artifactIdmurmur-top/artifactId
  version1.0-SNAPSHOT/version
/parent
artifactIdmurmur-events/artifactId
namemurmur-events/name
  /project

 murmur-top/murmur/pom.xml:
  project
modelVersion4.0.0/modelVersion
parent
  groupIdorg.murmur/groupId
  artifactIdmurmur-top/artifactId
  version1.0-SNAPSHOT/version
/parent
artifactIdmurmur/artifactId
namemurmur/name
dependencies
  dependency
groupIdorg.murmur/groupId
artifactIdmurmur-events/artifactId
version1.0-SNAPSHOT/version
  /dependency
/dependencies
  /project

(I've left out external dependencies such as eg. JUnit for brevity).

To build everything you would do mvn install or mvn clean install
from the murmur-top directory.

If you go to murmur-top/murmur/ and do mvn install from that directory
it will try to resolve the murmur-events dependency from the local
repository ($HOME/.m2/repository) and if the jar isn't there, it will
fail.

If you want to be sure that you are depending on the newest
murmur-events in murmur, you will need to do mvn install from the
murmur-top directory.

Note: you don't _have_ to structure your projects like above, but it is
easier that way.

 Does this impact where my local repository is?

Nope.

   4.. Should I specify the murmur-events-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar, as a dependency 
 in the murmur project, by system file path?

No.  That is: you probably could, but you definitely should not.

   5.. If the jar is named ‘murmur-events-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar’, will the above 
 dependency of the following find it?

Um... not sure I understood that...?

   6.. What about setting up an internal repository?  Would that be a better 
 solution?

What do you mean by an internal repository?  A repository for internal
to your project?  Or a repository local to your site?

   7.. If I have the dependency in maven, will eclipse pick it up?

Not eclipse by itself.  But you can either use the eclipse m2e plugin
that will make maven projects appear as eclipse projects, or you can use
the maven-eclipse-plugin to let maven generate the eclipse project
settings.  You can also use maven as an external build tool in eclipse.

and just copy it over to new projects I want to create and update the 
artifactId in the pom.  This way I can have all my default dependencies setup.

Ok.  What you did with that, was to add the top POM to your local
repository, and then the modules will find it there, rather than in
their parent directory.

Shouldn't be necessary... could it be the groupId mismatch...?

 I am now getting an error with murmur-events that is preventing
 installation and preventing murmur from building.  Here is the error
 with PMD:
[...]
 Why are PMD warnings failing the murmur-events install?

Without knowing the first thing about maven-pmd-plugin, my guess is that
it is because the reporting section of the murmur-events/pom.xml file
references the maven-pmd-plugin.

And: the source files contain 17 PMD violations.

  murmur-events/
  pom.xml
 
  I issue the command in the murmur-events dir and I have no parent
  pom.xml and the error is:
 
  [ERROR] Failed to execute goal
  org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-pmd-plugin:2.7.1:check (default) on
  project murmur-events: You have 17 PMD violations. For more de tails
  see:C:\rob\comp\workspace\murmur-events\target\pmd.xml - [Help 1]
 
 Right... one fix would be to fix those 17 PMD violations...;-)
 
 Alternatively you can remove maven-pmd-plugin from the plugins section
 of the murmur-events/pom.xml.  Or you can use that same entry to
 configure the maven-pmd-plugin to be less strict (not sure if that's
 possible...?).

Exactly, I reduced the strictness.  The violations were not preventing 
compilation.  I want to be able to install if it runs, then browse the 
violations and fix those that make sense.  I have one method that increments a 
parameter and I don't want to fix that for clarity, for example.


 5.. If the jar is named ‘murmur-events-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar’, will
   the above dependency of the following find it?
 
  Um... not sure I understood that...?
 
  This dependency section in the murmur pom:
 
  dependency
groupIdorg.reefedjib/groupId
artifactIdmurmur-events/artifactId
version1.0.1-SNAPSHOT/version
  /dependency
 
 If that is the groupId+artifactId+version your actual murmur-events pom.xml
 has, and if murmur-events have been built and installed in your local
 repository, then yes, that shoud be enough.

Yep, it all works now.

 
 6.. What about setting up an internal repository?  Would that be
   a better solution?
 
  What do you mean by an internal repository?  A repository for
  internal to your project?  Or a repository local to your site?
 
  Instead of a local repository, have a public repository at
  http://callistosheart.org/maven or something.
 
 If that is an option for you, then I'm sure it will be a good thing.
 I have only ever been allowed to set up an intranet repository...:-)
 
 You can add that repository in your top pom.

So, how does this work?  What does the site file structure look like?


 
 7.. If I have the dependency in maven, will eclipse pick it up?
 
  Not eclipse by itself.  But you can either use the eclipse m2e plugin
  that will make maven projects appear as eclipse projects, or you can
  use the maven- eclipse-plugin to let maven generate the eclipse
  project settings.  You can also use maven as an external build tool in
 eclipse.
 
  Does Eclipse Juno include these plugins?
 
 m2e?  By default?  No idea.
 
  It does have some level of support, but I am finding I need to go to
  the command line to generate new projects.
 
 That isn't m2e or eclipse.  That's the maven-eclipse-plugin.  If you do mvn
 eclipse:eclipse on the workspace level this maven plugin will generate the
 eclipse project files/directories in murmur-events and murmur.
 
 The dependency from murmur to murmur-events will be a project
 dependency.
 
 Note that you also need to mvn eclipse:configure-workspace on the
 workspace level before starting eclipse.  This will set the M2_REPO eclipse
 variable, pointing to your local repository.

Very cool.

 
  Thinking about this, I think I will establish a sample project with
  everything and just copy it over to new projects I want to create and
  update the artifactId in the pom.  This way I can have all my default
  dependencies setup.
 
 Hm... OK.  Maybe my test project can help you a little bit.  You can just 
 start
 out with the project and verify that it builds, then add stuff and test builds
 and if it breaks figure out what makes it break
 
 Attached is the output from me doing mvn install on the test project.

I included several dependencies in the top and then overrode some of the 
analysis dependencies in the one sub to be even less strict than the top.  
Works like grace.

Thanks for your help,
Rob

Most people here run an MRM like Nexus, Artifactory, or Archiva. You
can find lots of information about these systems at their respective
sites.

Do not add a repository section to you pom.
That will cause everyone else who uses your artifacts pain.

As Wayne says you want to set up a MRM and then in your
~/.m2/settings.xml you activate a profile that points to your MRM.

Again, if you read the books at http://maven.apache.org/articles.html,
specifically :
* Maven: The Definitive Guide
* Better Builds with Maven

You will gain the understanding you need to answer your own questions
that you have posed on the list.

RE: noob confusion about dependencies and repositories

2012-10-06 Thread Rob Withers
I am guilty for being lazy.  I really hate all this build config stuff and
with maven, git and Jenkins, plus FindBugs and PMD in all three
environments, it gets to me.  I am totally up and running, minus some issues
as I split my project apart that I am working on.  If I do go for the public
maven repos, I will be sure to read the books.  You have given me a crash
course on it and I can us it effectively now.

Now, back to coding, which is what I really like to do (minus a trip back
into JBoss land). 

Cheers,
Rob

noob confusion about dependencies and repositories

2012-10-05 Thread Rob Withers
Hey y’all,

I am trying to link one project’s jar to another project.  I am totally 
confused and hope someone can take some time to explain.  I have been 
reading the following pages on the site:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html
http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/index.html#How_do_I_create_a_JAR_and_install_it_in_my_local_repository
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html


I have the following tools:
  a.. eclipse
  b.. maven
  c.. git
  d.. jenkins
  e.. findbugs
  f.. pmd
my two projects are murmur-events and the other is murmur.  Murmur has a 
dependency to murmur-events.

My murmur-events pom has pmd and findbugs and failures in the mojo s 
preventing installation of the jar.

Here is the dependency in the murmur pom:

dependency
  groupIdmurmur-events/groupId
  artifactIdmurmur-events/artifactId
  scoperuntime/scope
  version1.0.1-SNAPSHOT/version
/dependency



Here are my questions, I suppose:
  1.. How can I install murmur-events, even though pmd/findbugs is issuing 
warnings?  The mvn install is failing.
  2.. Where is the local repository where these get installed?
  3.. Do I need to have a parent pom with two modules, one for each project? 
Does this impact where my local repository is?
  4.. Should I specify the murmur-events-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar, as a dependency 
in the murmur project, by system file path?
  5.. If the jar is named ‘murmur-events-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar’, will the above 
dependency of the following find it?
  6.. What about setting up an internal repository?  Would that be a better 
solution?
  7.. If I have the dependency in maven, will eclipse pick it up?
Many thanks,
Rob
