Plug-in Development

Developing plug-ins for Maven is very straightforward. This section explains how to develop an example HelloPlugin that will give you a taste of plug-in development.

As discussed earlier, a plug-in is simply a collection of goals. Thus, when we talk about plug-in development, we are essentially talking about developing goals. In Java, these goals are implemented using MOJOs, which stands for Maven Old Java Object and it is similar to Java’s Plain Old Java Object (POJO).

Let’s start this plug-in development by creating a Maven Java project, named gswm-plugin, as shown in Figure 5-2. We are creating this project under a starter gswm-plugin project available in the C:\apress\gswm-book\chapter5 folder.
