4.3 Apache Maven Usage

The Maven plugin allows Bundlor to be run from inside any Maven project.

4.3.1 Maven Setup

The following procedure shows how to set up Bundlor inside of an existing Maven POM file.

  1. Add the SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository to the pom.xml file.

    <pluginRepositories>
  <pluginRepository>
    <id>com.springsource.repository.bundles.release</id>
    <name>SpringSource Enterprise Bundle Repository</name>
    <url>http://repository.springsource.com/maven/bundles/release</url>
  </pluginRepository>
  ...
</pluginRepositories>

  2. Use the bundlor plugin, as shown in the following example. See Section 4.3.2, “Maven Plugin Reference” for details about the parameters of the plugin. 

    <build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>com.springsource.bundlor</groupId>
      <artifactId>com.springsource.bundlor.maven</artifactId>
