#Maven Dart Plugin
The Dart Maven Plugin provides integration for Google Dart into a maven build process. It looks for folders with dart package layout
#Setup
The plugin needs a dart-sdk installed on the system it should be executed. By default it will look for the environment variable DART_SDK. So please set this variable. It is possible to overwrite this in the plugin configuration section.
#Artifact coordinates
The plugin is released as com.github.dzwicker.dart:dart-maven-plugin
#Requirements
The Dart Maven Plugin needs maven 3.0+ and JDK 7.
#Goals Overview
The Dart Plugin has one goal (besides the help goal). It is already bound to his proper phase within the Maven Lifecycle (compile) and is therefore, automatically executed during his respective phase.
dart:dartGoal to invoke the dart scripts.dart:pubGoal to invoke pub the dart package manager.dart:dart2jsGoal to compile dart files to javascript.dart:dwcGoal to invoke the dart web compiler.dart:testGoal to invoke the dart scripts.dart:helpDisplay help information on dart-maven-plugin. Call mvn dart:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal= to display parameter details.
#Usage
The dart2js goal uses the dart2js compiler from the dart project to compile any dart file to javascript (js file) and a map.js file. It will download the latest dart SDK into the dartOutputDirectory [${project.build.directory}/dependency/dart] for the used OS and architecture. By default it will look for dart files in src/main/dart and will place the javascript files under ${project.build.directory}/dart.
More configuration details:
Please use mvn dart:help for more information.
#Example
An example can be found in the dart-maven-plugin-example folder inside the git repository.
#Maven repository

Daniel Zwicker founded the project on GitHub.
