Adding SVN revision number in manifest not working (plugin not found?)

[Ruben Gomez]

Hi,

I am trying to use maven-svn-revision-number-plugin to add the revision number in the manifest of my project.

I have this on my project pom:

        <pluginManagement>

<plugins>

<plugin>

<groupId>com.google.code.maven-svn-revision-number-plugin</groupId>

<artifactId>svn-revision-number-maven-plugin</artifactId>

<version>1.13</version>

<executions>

<execution>

<goals>

<goal>revision</goal>

</goals>

</execution>

</executions>

<configuration>

<entries>

<entry>

<prefix>svn</prefix>

</entry>

</entries>

</configuration>

</plugin>

<plugin>

<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>

<configuration>

<archive>

<manifestEntries>

<revision>${svn.revision}</revision>

</manifestEntries>

</archive>

</configuration>

</plugin>

</plugins>

</pluginManagement>

Now I run "mvn clean package" but nothing appears on my manifest file on the revision line:

Manifest-Version: 1.0

Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver

Created-By: Apache Maven

Built-By: rgomez

Build-Jdk: 1.6.0_25

revision: 

The weird thing is that if I run the command with --debug I see no reference to the plugin at all. I attach log file.

Can anybody tell me what is going wrong???

Thanks

Ok, my mistake. I think I should run the plugin goal like this:

mvn svn-revision-number:revision

But then I get the error:

[INFO] Scanning for projects...

[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'svn-revision-number'.

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any help?

Hi,

 

build/pluginManagement section usually used in multi-module projects where it provides common configuration for required plugins, but it does not bind plugins to the build lifecycle. This is why you did not see any mention of s-r-n plugin when you ran the maven with –debug switch.

 

To actually add the plugin to the build lifecycle you need to use plain build/plugins section in your pom.xml file. Using your example, you can simply remove <pluginManagement> and </pluginManagement> tags and leave everything else as is.
