| Re: [m2e-users] Advice: Where to hook running my mojo into m2eclipse |
It does need more publicity. I’ve been walking through some features that have been produced over the years that are highly useful and not very well known. I actually chatted with Igor about one yesterday.
Barrie, I don’t think you’ve wasted your time as trying to get things working on the command line and in M2Eclipse is always a challenge. But are you primarily wanting to have this be an IDE feature? There’s a bunch of code in M2Eclipse and I have a small plugin that takes a list of projects and materializes them in the workspace. It’s my own hack that I have used for years to setup my workspaces easily. Think of it as a very unsophisticated version of Oomph. I borrowed bits and pieces from the Sonatype onboarding code from many years ago. I’m happy to give you access if you want to take a look, but it is a massive hack which is why it’s not public. I think Igor has some code lying around too that does almost exactly what you want :-)
I really encourage you to jump in IRC as I much prefer chatting there then over mailing lists. And I will honestly forget this conversation in 48 hours if you don’t remind me :-)
