Built by Maven

tycho-p2-repository:assemble-maven-repository

Full name:

org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-p2-repository-plugin:5.0.0-SNAPSHOT:assemble-maven-repository

Description:

This goals produces a "p2-maven-site" from the projects declared <dependencies> (and <dependencyManagement> if desired). A p2-maven-site is completely manageable by standard maven tools and has the following properties:

  • The artifacts are not stored in the site itself but referenced as maven-coordinates, that means you don't have to upload your artifacts to a dedicated place, everything is fetched from the maven repository
  • The metadata of the page is attached to the current project with type=zip and classifier=p2site and could be deployed using standard maven techniques
Please note: Only valid OSGi bundles are included, there is no way to automatically wrap plain jars and they are silently ignored. This is intentional, as the goal of a p2-maven-site is to use exactly the same artifact that is deployed in the maven repository.

The produced p2-maven-site can then be consumed by Tycho or PDE targets (m2eclipse is required for this), in the following way: A tycho-repository section:

<repository>
<id>my-p2-maven-site
<url>mvn:[groupId]:[artifactId]:[version]:zip:p2site
<layout>p2
</repository>
A target location of type software-site: 
 <location includeAllPlatforms="false" includeConfigurePhase="true" includeMode="planner" includeSource="true" type="InstallableUnit">
<repository location="mvn:[groupId]:[artifactId]:[version]:zip:p2site"/>
-- list desired units here --
</location>

Attributes:

  • Requires a Maven project to be executed.
  • Requires dependency resolution of artifacts in scope: compile.
  • The goal is not marked as thread-safe and thus does not support parallel builds.

Required Parameters

Name Type Since Description
<buildDirectory> File - The output directory of the jar file By default this is the Maven "target/" directory.
User Property: project.build.directory

Optional Parameters

Name Type Since Description
<categoryFile> File - Location of the category definition. If the file does not exist, a generic category definition is generated including all bundles under one category
Default: ${project.basedir}/category.xml
<categoryName> String - Name for the automatically generated category
Default: Bundles
<destination> File - No description.
Default: ${project.build.directory}/repository
<includeDependencies> boolean - Flag whether declared <dependencies> of the projects should be included.
Default: true
<includeManaged> boolean - Flag that controls if <dependencyManagement> managed dependencies should be included, this is useful if your are using a BOM and like to include all materials in the update-site regardless of if they are explicitly included in the <dependencies> section
Default: false
<includePGPSignature> boolean - If enabled, PGP signatures of the artifacts are embedded in the P2 site to allow for additional verifications / trust decisions
Default: false
<includeReactor> boolean - Flag that controls if reactor projects should be considered, this is useful if your are simply like to make an update side of all your current reactor projects
Default: false
<includeTransitiveDependencies> boolean - Flag whether dependencies of the projects declared <dependencies> (and <dependencyManagement> if desired) should be included. If enabled this creates the maven equivalent of a self-contained P2 site
Default: false
<keyServerRetry> int - Key servers are sometimes busy, this configures the maximum amount of retries to fetch the public key before failing the build
Default: 10
<keyServerUrls> List<String> - Configures the key servers that are used to fetch the public keys, if not specified, "https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search={0}" and "http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search={0}" are used in this order.
<timeoutInSeconds> int - No description.
Default: 300
