Maven Archetypes Made Easier

Filed under: Maven

John has posted an article about how to use the archetype:generate plugin. The plugin will present the available archetypes and then lets you entered the required artifacts.

Much better than typing the rather lengthy command line params (if you remembered them anyway).

    Did you try m2eclipse plugin? It’ll give you a nice New Maven Project wizard, which includes an archetype browser.

    Mike, yes I have also wrote about it in 2006.

    However, I must admit that I haven’t been using m2eclipse for a while (i am a proud owner of a IntelliJ license :-) ).
