I have a project structure like below.In aggregator POM project1 and project 2 are defined as modules.Now if i want to add a maven property that can be accessed in all the projects how can i do it?. What is the best project structure in this case.?
If i define property like <temp.dir>data</temp.dir>
in the aggregator POM then it is not available in project1 pom.xml and project2 POM.xml.I have to duplicate the same property in both the POM's.
project
- project1
- - pom.xml ---- has parent POM as project A
- project2
- - pom.xml --- has parent POM as project B
- pom.xml (Aggregator POM)
UPDATE:To clarify more project1 pom and project 2 has different parent POM's.So aggregator POM cannot be set as parent.
You need to set the aggregator pom as the parent of project1
and project2
. eg. in project1
and project2
poms add:
<parent>
<groupId>com.agr</groupId>
<artifactId>project-aggregator</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
</parent>
EDIT:
I understand that project1 and project2 have different parent poms.
The only solution i know about to achieve what You want is to store the properties in parent pom.
I can think only of one solution, to make an inheritance chain:
Project2Parent:
<parent>
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>Project1Parent</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</parent>
<artifactId>Project2Parent</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
Aggregator:
<parent>
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>Project2Parent</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</parent>
<artifactId>Aggregator</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
Project1
<parent>
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>Aggregator</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</parent>
<artifactId>project1</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
Project2
<parent>
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>Aggregator</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</parent>
<artifactId>project2</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
Here is aggregator's pom:
<groupId>y</groupId>
<artifactId>y</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<modules>
<module>y1</module>
<module>y2</module>
</modules>
<properties>
<x>1</x>
</properties>
This is y1
effective pom (generated by Eclipse):
<parent>
<groupId>y</groupId>
<artifactId>y</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</parent>
<groupId>y1</groupId>
<artifactId>y1</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1</version>
<properties>
<x>1</x>
</properties>
As you can see property x
declared in parent is inherited by child.
