nativelibs4java / maven-velocity-plugin

A Velocity plugin for Maven

maven-velocity-plugin is a Velocity template plugin for Maven.

It interprets any template file in src/main/velocity (resp. src/test/velocity) and outputs the result to the appropriate locations: *.java files end up in target/generated-sources/{main,test} so that they can be compiled, while other files end up in target/generated-resources/{main,test}.

It is licensed under a BSD license.

Usage

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>com.nativelibs4java</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-velocity-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>0.9</version>
        <configuration>
          <properties>
            <foo>bar</foo>
          </properties>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
      ...
    </plugins>
  </build>

For a complete example of use of this plugin in production, have a look at BridJ's source templates and test templates.

Predefined properties

Every project property defined in the POM are reflected as Velocity variables, and the POM itself is accessible through the pom property.

There are also a couple of predefined BridJ-specific properties that are available (TODO: remove them?).
