First, you’ll need to make sure the following jars exist in %MAVEN_HOME%/lib (i include the versions i currently have):
- wagon-ftp (1.0-beta-2)
- commons-net (1.4.1)
- oro (2.0.8)
Then define a server (& its credentials) for the remote repo in your ~/.m2/settings.xml and finally issue something like:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dfile=mysql-source.jar -Dclassifier=sources
-DpomFile=mysql-connector-java.pom -Durl=ftp://my.server.com/path/to/repository -DrepositoryId=my.server.id |
Yea, of course it’s open-source (though the license is missing from the repo it’s Apache2). So, the idea is that i could have jawr produce the artifacts at build time – hence the maven plugin.
I followed a weird approach when authoring this – I used EasyMock to mock and program all those ‘annoyances’! So, I didn’t really have any troubles – of course, a proper API would make things easier,… i’ll try to contact you soon.
Does not work on the mac (yet) … see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3870
This is unrelated to your post, but…
Just stumbled upon this. Really cool!.
I am planning to implement build time operation for Jawr soon, which hopefully should help you with the new Mojo. Right now I think you might find some dependencies on a servletcontext instance and other annoyances that might keep Jawr from working during startup, and actually some feedback from you would probably help me. Drop me a line anytime you need help…
By the way, are you planning on open-sourcing it?
