Arquillian Maven Plugin
A Maven plugin with support for start/deploy/undeploy/stop and run operations using the Arquillian Containers.
Operations
-
run
Similar to the famous jetty:run maven plugin. This goal will Setup and Start the Container, Deploy the given Archive, then wait for a JVM shutdown (ctrl+c), for so to UnDeploy and Stop the Container.
This should work with all types of containers: Embedded, Managed and Remote.
(note: Remote containers are not actually started, but Archive will be undeployed on shutdown)
-
start
This goal will Setup and Start the Container. The Container is added to the Maven execution context for reuse by other command.
-
deploy
This goal will deploy the given Archive defined by "filename". An Exception is thrown if start has not been called.
-
undeploy
This goal will undeploy the given Archive defined by "filename". An Exception is thrown if start has not been called.
-
stop
This goal stops the Container and cleans up the Maven context.
-
deployRemote
This goal will Setup and Start the Container and Deploy the Archive, for so to Stop the Container.
(note: This goal only makes sense used with Remote containers)
-
undeployRemote
This goal will Setup and Start the Container and Deploy the Archive, for so to Stop the Container.
(note: This goal only makes sense used with Remote containers)
Configuration
-
target
Parent directory to where the Archive can be found. Default value is: ${project.build.directory}/
-
filename
The Archive name as found in 'targetDir'. Default value is: ${project.build.finalName}.${project.packaging}
-
classloading
Where the plugin should find the Container libraries.
-
-
TEST (default)
Loads the projects Test Scoped ClassPath.
-
-
-
COMPILE
Loads the projects Compile Scoped ClassPath.
-
-
-
PLUGIN
Only search the ClassPath defined in the plugins dependencies section.

Call the plugin using the following command line:

The dependencies needed are the same as described in the Reference Guide -> Complete Container Reference.
See the test/ sub module for a complete setup using both Arquillian for testing the module and the Maven module for manual verification.
