How do I create an archetype that can run on an existing project?
Author: Deron Eriksson
Description: This maven tutorial describes how to create an archetype that can run on a project that already exists.
Tutorial created using:
Windows Vista || JDK 1.6.0_04 || Eclipse Web Tools Platform 2.0.1 (Eclipse 3.3.1)
(Continued from page 1) Now, I'll run the archetype on the "anotherproject" project, shown here:
To run the archetype, I'll use the following command: mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.maventest -DartifactId=anotherproject -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-bacon-and-eggs -DarchetypeGroupId=com.myarchetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.0-SNAPSHOT
The output of this command is shown here: Console output for 'mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.maventest -DartifactId=anotherproject -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-bacon-and-eggs -DarchetypeGroupId=com.myarchetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.0-SNAPSHOT'[INFO] Scanning for projects...
