Re: [jbosstools-dev] Project Examples
SwitchYard assembles all its quickstarts into a single zip, which is
published to a Maven repository. I was thinking about adding a Maven importer that would
use the artifact key to locate the archive and install a specific quickstart. This is
what I have envisioned:
* specify artifact key, i.e. group, artifact, version, packaging, e.g.
org.switchyard.quickstarts:switchyard-quickstarts-distro:0.3.0.Final:zip.
* specify root folder, e.g. /bean-service or /demos/orders
* import all projects under the specified folder
import all sounds like a horrible thing to me as a user. But better than nothing I guess.
if you already have a zip file at a stable URL then you can already use project examples
infrastructure for this today I would say (assuming the projects are eclipse projects)
If maven projects then it is more tricky and I would say you should split out these
examples into smaller ones or even better adapt them to archetypes so they work easily via
JBoss Central ?
