filtering on io.jenkins does not find any archetype causing inability to create a new plugin

[Bassam Khouri]

Hi, 

I'm a complete newbie to Jenkins plugin development, and I'm attempting to create a new plugin.  I'm following the instructions here:

https://jenkins.io/doc/developer/tutorial/prepare/

I have the following java and maven versions installed

$ java -version

java version "1.8.0_144"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_144-b01)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.144-b01, mixed mode)

$ mvn -version

Apache Maven 3.6.0 (97c98ec64a1fdfee7767ce5ffb20918da4f719f3; 2018-10-24T14:41:47-04:00)

Maven home: /usr/local/Cellar/maven/3.6.0/libexec

Java version: 1.8.0_144, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_144.jdk/Contents/Home/jre

Default locale: en_CA, platform encoding: UTF-8

OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.13.6", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"

The next step, Creating a Plugin, indicated to run mvn -U archetype:generate -Dfilter=io.jenkins.archetypes: and indicates I will be presented with an option of which type of plugin I want to create.  However, I encounter the following:

$ mvn -U archetype:generate -Dfilter=io.jenkins.archetypes:

...

[INFO] --- maven-archetype-plugin:3.0.1:generate (default-cli) @ standalone-pom ---

[INFO] Generating project in Interactive mode

[INFO] Your filter doesn't match any archetype, so try again with another value.

[INFO] Finished at: 2018-12-21T16:05:37-05:00

I have been searching the web for a solution, but nothing I try is successful. 

What am I doing wrong?

Weird, works for me, even on a new user account without ~/.m2 directory.

Did you previously configure Maven's settings.xml, and that might interfere here? If you're unsure, rename the file ~.m2/settings.xml to anything else (IOW, remove it but keep a backup), and try again.
