Plugin Documentation

Goals available for this plugin:

Goal Description
tycho-source:feature-source Generates a source feature for projects of packaging type eclipse-feature. By default, the generated source feature
  • Declares feature id <originalFeatureId>.source
  • Declares feature label "<originalFeatureLabel> Developer Resources"
  • If present, reuses feature provider, description, copyright and license as well as respective URLs from <originalFeature>
  • Includes all plugins included by <originalFeature>, but each with .source appended to each plugin id
  • Includes all features included by <originalFeature>, but each with .source appended to each feature id
  • Includes the original feature. This ensures that binaries and corresponding sources match.
Source feature generation can be customized by adding files under path sourceTemplateFeature/. Files added here will be added to the root of the source feature jar. Especially, if file sourceTemplateFeature/feature.properties is found, values in this file override values of respective keys in <originalFeature>/feature.properties.
tycho-source:generate-pde-source-header This mojo adds the required headers to a source artifact for it to be used in PDE as a source bundle
tycho-source:plugin-source Goal to create a JAR-package containing all the source files of a osgi project.
