Hi all,
As part of the "new organization" plan, it's a good time to update
stacks format since it will be hosted on the new github
organization.
I've analyzed the changes need and attached a Stacks 1.1 proposal to
see if everyone agrees on that or if should we keep using 1.0 format
Changes from 1.0 to 1.1
- Rename Licenses to Metadata
Justification: I've been using Licenses today as an
metadata section to avoid repeating metadatas like version,
repositories, licenses, etc:
https://github.com/jboss-jdf/jdf-stack/blob/1.0.0.Final/stacks.yaml#L21-L34
Workaround: Leave it as it is
- add repositoryURL and extraRepositories to BomVersion.
Justification: I've been using labels to to tag what
repositories are Required:
https://github.com/jboss-jdf/jdf-stack/blob/1.0.0.Final/stacks.yaml#L441
- Some BOMs needs more than one repo as JPP (
JPP is built on top of EAP 6.0.1, but it is using RichFaces from
WFK 2.1.0 that is built on top of EAP 6.0.0)
Workaround: Create an standard tag called *repositories* and add
every non maven central repository required.
So I'd like to here your thoughts about it and analyze possible
impacts on this format change.
OBS.: Remember that stacks 1.0 repo is planned to be moved to
jboss-developer github organization. So it's a good change to update
it. The 1.0 and 1.1 should coexist for a while and maybe
stacks-client should have a "migration" feature to permit a smooth
transition.
Thank you
