NAME

Maven - Creates a link in /usr/share/maven-repo for an existing jar.

SYNOPSIS

mh_linkjar [ option ]... [ pom ] [ dest_jar ] [ link ]...

DESCRIPTION

Create symlinks for a jar installed by other means. The symlinks created include links to the jar in /usr/share/maven-repo , at the correct location for Maven. It can also create additional links to the jar, usually located in /usr/share/java .

Where

[pom] is the location of the POM associated with the jar to install.

GroupId, artifactId and version will be extracted from this file.

[dest_jar] is the path of the installed jar, usually located in the

usr/share/java folder.

[link] is an additional link to the jar to install, usually there should

be a link to usr/share/java/$jar.jar and usr/share/java/$jar-$version.jar to comply with the Java packaging guidelines. Note that there is no need to specify those particular links if the --java-lib option is used.

OPTIONS

	-h --help : show this text
	-V --version : show the version
	-p <package> --package= <package>: name of the Debian package which

will contain this jar file

-e <version>, --set-version= <version>: set the version for the jar,

do not use the version declared in the POM file.

-r <rules> --rules= <rules>: path to the file containing the

rules to apply when cleaning the POM. Optional, the default location is debian/maven.rules Maven rules are used here to extract the groupId, artifactId and version from the POM file.

-l --java-lib : Optional, if given it will install the jar into

/usr/share/java to comply with the Debian Java specification. The jar will be installed as /usr/share/java/$name-$version.jar and a versionless link /usr/share/java/$name.jar will point to it, as well as the links installed in /usr/share/maven-repo

-n <name> --usj-name= <name>: Optional, the name to use when installing the

library in /usr/share/java when --java-lib is used. Defaults to the artifact id found in the POM.

-j <version> --usj-version= <version>: Optional, the version to use when

installing the library in /usr/share/java when --java-lib is used. Defaults to the version found in the POM.

-s --no-usj-versionless : Optional, don’t install the versionless link

in /usr/share/java . This flag is used only when the -l or --java-lib option is given.

-c <classifier> --classifier= <classifier>: Optional, the classifier for

the jar. Empty by default.

	-v --verbose : show more information while running
	-n --no-act : don’t actually do anything, just print the results
	--skip-clean-pom : don’t clean the pom, assume that a previous action ran

mh_cleanpom with the correct options. mh_cleanpom is run only to extract the groupId, artifactId and version of the jar
