Archy is a simple, command-line frontend to Maven 2's Archetypes. It walks you through the process of creating a new project using these project templates. This tool was inspired by megg.
The list of archetypes comes from two sources:
* An internal XML file that describes the archetype information
* An external Maven wiki page that lists available archetypes
Artifactory is a Maven2 proxy repository with advanced features. It is based on JCR (using JackRabbit as the implementation), with a web UI based on Wicket, and embeded Jetty for quick start. All artifacts are stored in an embedded Derby DB.
Better Builds with Maven is written by Vincent Massol, Jason van Zyl and other key contributors of the Maven community and combines detailed explanations and code examples to walk you through improving your software development process with Maven 2.0.
Apache Maven ist mehr als nur ein Build-Tool. Richtig eingesetzt kann es helfen, Projekte zu managen und die Entwicklung zu unterstützen. Dieser Artikel erklärt das optimale Vorgehen.
Buildr is a build system for Java applications in Ruby Maven compatible * A simple way to specify projects, and build large projects out of smaller sub-projects. * Pre-canned tasks that require the least amount of configuration, keeping the build script DRY and simple. * Compiling, copying and filtering resources, JUnit/TestNG test cases, APT source code generation, Javadoc etc * A dependency mechanism that only builds what has changed since the last release. * A drop-in replacement for Maven 2.0, Buildr uses the same file layout, artifact specifications, local and remote repositories. * All your Ant tasks belong to us! Anything you can do with Ant, you can do with Buildr. * No overhead for building “plugins” or configuration. Just write new tasks or functions. * Buildr is Ruby all the way down. No one-off task is too demanding when you write code using variables, functions and objects. * Simple to upgrade to new versions. * fast
