Configuration Settings to Skip "DB Upgrade"

[Arvind Kumar]

Hi Rene,

I'm back again with new requirement. I think Solidbase should also
support a configuration param <skip> to skip the execution of the
plugin.

This is helpful in case the user doesn't want it to be executed.
Similar to what maven-surefire-plugin provides.

Arvind,

I'll create an issue for that.

In the meantime you could use a Maven profile for this:

http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html 

For example you have a 'database' profile which you enable by default.

You can disable this profile on the command line, like this:

mvn install -P !database

Profiles give you greater flexibility then a single skip property.

Hi Rene,

Yes, we are using maven profile for now but it will be good if <skip> feature can be provided.

Thanks,
Arvind

Arvind,

I've implemented the change already, I will release it tonight or tomorrow night.

You can now add the following to the plugin configuration:

<skip>${skipDatabase}</skip>

And on the command line you would then type:

mvn -DskipDatabase=true install

I hope this is enough?

Thanks Rene,

Which version of Solidbase has got this feature?

Arvind,

I released beta3 to the Maven repo. You can also download it from:

https://solidbase.googlecode.com/svn/repository/solidbase/solidbase/2.0.0-beta3/solidbase-2.0.0-beta3.jar
