Summary: Have Maven projects automatically apply project defined code style, formatting and templates
Key: JBIDE-15132
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-15132
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: maven
Environment: Eclipse
Reporter: Sanne Grinovero
Very often we need to re-import Maven projects, and m2 reconfigures it *almost* all correctly. Latest Eclipse even auto-shares the git repository, which solved one very annoying and repetitive step, but there is one left:
most of our projects use a custom formatting rule, code cleanup rules, and templates to generate some common elements like the project specific copyright headers.
For example Hibernate recommends to download three files from:
https://community.jboss.org/wiki/ContributingToHibernateUsingEclipse
these need to be imported in eclipse, and applied to each project.
Nowadays I need to re-apply these each and every time M2 needs to reconfigure the project; it would be absolutely amazing if I could commit these three files in the project and refer to them from my pom.xml?
We already have something like that working for checkstyle: m2 detects the need to download a plugin, and applies the custom rules. But that's not enough.
Benefit:
not just our own time, but also make life of each and every occasional contributor much easier to get started.
