Hello again (I'm active there today ;) ), this time I'd like to tell you about a feature I would like, and maybe some of you will have something to advise me. I have to generate a report listing all my dependencies (and I have tooooooo many !) and for each one I have to provide a little text telling why I chose this library. The best way I could imagine would be to have an optional < rationale /> tag in the < dependency /> block in order to document this directly in the pom. But to my knowledge this is not possible (maybe for the next version of the pom format ?!). Then a simple plugin could generate directly a report.
For the moment, I have used the license-maven-plugin which lists all the dependencies in an html file that I have manually edited to add the info. But it is not future proof and I will have to do it again next time ! Is there any plugin that would take as input both your dependencies and a file containing the choice rationale (for each dependency GAV) and would generate an html listing dependencies and their rationale ? Have a good day !
