How to use my custom archetype with Maven?
archetypes, maven, maven-archetype
Solution
I've found a solution : when I install my archetype I need to use the option archetype:update-locate-catalog like this :
mvn install archetype:update-local-catalog
Instead a simple "mvn install" command.
And now I find my new custom archetrype in the local catalog when I want generate a new custom project :
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=local
Problem
I just create my custom archetype project, and I run perfectly the "mvn install" command. In my local repository, my archetype project was added correctly via `m2/repository/com/mycomp/archetype-project-name`. (but it was not created in the archetype folder : `m2/repository/org/apache/maven/archetypes` : maybe it's normal) But now I can't use my new custom archetype with the "mvn archetype:generation" command : - with good parameters Maven tell me he doesn't find the archetype - without parameters, my archetype doesn't exist in the archetype list. Should I execute the `mvn deploy` command too ? I tried this, but I haven't configure another internal repository yet and it fails. Thank in advance for your help
