Maven 4: Still XML. Still boring. Still Winning.

What's so ugly about Maven?
Oh, right, XML. The ancient language feared by the hipster cult of Gradle.

But let's be honest:
You don't write build files every day. You come back after months, forget everything, and now… you're debugging a Groovy poem.
Maven? You squint at the XML, and boom. Autocomplete, structure, sanity.

Maven 4? Still XML. Still boring. Still… Winning at automations.
Yes there are more features, and yes you can use other DSL's than XML with polyglot or any other extension like also before.
Something new and interesting could be the BOM packaging and requirement of java 17. You can always build lower stuff also with 17. It's simply Java.

My killer feature of Maven:
👉 Stable, sandboxed plugins, run directly from the command line. No need to create bloated build files.
No copy-pasting the same config into 12 submodules and repositories.
All automated. All under my control.
No need to depend on the next third party cloud elf named like dependabot.
Or an SDK Man for switching java versions.
All I need is simply a JAR file and a build tool which does not disrupt me.

✨ Favourite Maven Spells - aka plugins running on my CI without defining them:
mvn wrapper:wrapper - Because of consistency, no jar binary inside my repo.
mvn dependency:tree - See who brought the uninvited guests.
mvn versions:update-properties - Auto-update without the bots.
mvn license:add-third-party - keep track of used licenses
mvn org.owasp:dependency-check-maven:check - Security without sacrifice.
[...]

Stop waiting for the next shiny thing, you can always contribute to any tool.
Start building. Or better automate it.

Is there any way to actively test if a maven dependency scope is set to “test” but would be required to be “compile”/“runtime”? I broke a build that way but can’t think of any way to catch that.

I'm working on enabling the #DigiPres parts of our org by making some of the #COPTR Tool Grid apps available securely in a managed #Windows environment - first cab off the rank is a #Java app with bundled #JRE, which won't play well with our env 😕

does anyone have experience using #maven & #jpackage as part of a build pipeline to create OS-native installers? my short-term target is a Windows MSI, but once that's in place the same pipeline should be able to spit out native installers for macOS (which we also use) & Linux (which we don't - yet 😈)

I'm at the point where I'm about to clone the repo & start tinkering 😫 but would much rather re-use something already built than figure it out from docs & example code...

I'm trying to publish my first #Java library on maven central. I am able to find it at central.sonatype.com and maven can resolve it from there.

But I can't find it neither on search.maven.org nor on mvnrepository.com. It is a release version (not a snapshot), it is GPG signed and there are source and javadoc jars too.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

OK, at Thursday 06/13/2024 04:51:32 PDT I'm going to update this once and let it ride, re:

As of eight hours ago, @jsecretan has effectively run up the white flag

At Github:

github.com/jsecretan/maven-pub

"This data has all been removed."

Note that all the relevant Issues on Github have been Closed, so they're hard to find unless you know what to look for; they are here:

"It’s worth mentioning that Maven received 2 million dollars in funding from former Twitter CEO Ev Williams and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman"

Realize that 2 million dollars is chump change to these tech bros

A rounding error

But even so these "investors" certainly expect an ROI - a return on their investment

What part of 's haul is to be monetized to generate shareholder value - to ensure these parasites receive an adequate ROI - and how?
