mvn2

A Ruby script that runs a maven build, including (or not including) tests, and only outputs the lines that come after a compile failure, build success, test result, or reactor summary start line

Installation

Install it yourself as:

$ gem install mvn2

Usage

Version 2.0.0 introduces a plugin system. Other gems can add plugins to mvn2. The files have to match the pattern mvn2/plugin/*.plugin.rb in your gem's lib/ folder. If you do that, when the gem is installed, mvn2 will automatically pick up on it and load it.

Please see the plugin folder in this gem for examples of how to use the plugin system. My colorconfig and mvn2-say gems also have plugins for mvn2

optional parameters:

  • -t or --timer to display a timer while the build is in progress (default is display nothing)
  • -s or --skip-tests to skip tests (default is running tests)
  • -n or --no-sticky to make the growl notification non-sticky (default is sticky)
  • -a or --display-all to display all output (default is to only display the output after a compile failure, build success, test result, or reactor summary start line)
  • -k or --track-average to update the average (stored in avg.txt) and also display a progress bar while the build is in progress (default is not to do track average or display progress bar)
  • -u or --track-full-average to update the average list (stored in avg-skip.txt or avg-test.txt) and also display a progress bar while the build is in progress (default is to not do track average or display progress bar) (including this option will cause the progress bar to use the average calculated from the average list if available, but if -k or --track-average is specified, avg.txt will still be updated)
  • -c or --colored to display some colors in the timer/progress message
  • --write-log to write all of the output to a log file (default is to not write to a log file)
  • --log-file NAME to set the log file name to NAME (default is build.log)
  • -d or --advanced-average to use k-means (with minimum optimal k) to find a list of averages and use the closest one for the progress bar and displayed average (default is to use overall average)
  • --command-override CMD to override the maven command (disables average tracking options and skip test option) (default is clean install (with optional -D skipTests) and not disabling any options)
  • -p or --package to run mvn clean package (with optional -D skipTests) (default is mvn clean install (with optional -D skipTests) (supports average tracking)
  • -h or --hide-between to hide the output between the end of test results (the line starting with "Tests run:") and the next trigger line
  • -w or --show-average to show the average(s) before and after the build (average tracking must be enabled) (default is to not show averages)
  • -b or --block-update to block the average feature from updating the file(s)
  • -v or --override-colors to override the colors with the ones configured by the colorconfig script
  • -j or --show-projects to show the Building <project> lines when outputting
  • --run-before CMD to run CMD before calling the maven build
  • --run-after CMD to run CMD after finishing the maven build
  • --run-success CMD to run CMD after finishing a successful maven build
  • --run-failure CMD to run CMD after finishing an unsuccessful maven build
  • -e or --exception to add the -e -X options to the mvn call
  • -0 or --live-print to print filtered lines as they are outputted by maven
  • -1 or --set-defaults to set the defaults so you can just run mvn2 without any parameters

displays:

a Growl notification indicating success or failure

Plugin System

The following is my initial documentation of the plugin system. It may be improved as I have time.

Version 2.0.0 introduces a plugin system. Other gems can add plugins to mvn2. The files have to match the pattern mvn2/plugin/*.plugin.rb in your gem's lib/ folder. If you do that, when the gem is installed, mvn2 will automatically pick up on it and load it.

Two examples of this are my gems colorconfig (https://rubygems.org/gems/colorconfig) and mvn2-say (https://rubygems.org/gems/mvn2-say).

Please see my everyday-plugins (https://github.com/henderea/everyday-plugins) gem for more info on plugins.

If you come up with a plugin, feel free to publish it on your own (that's what the plugin system is designed to support). If you think it should be part of the built-in plugin set, you can always file a pull request.
