Hi devs,
I've started creating the top level commons project and I started moving the top
level pom module in there.
However that modules requires 2 build tools: license (adds copyright license info to
jars) and verifications (checkstyle).
We need to decide where we put these 2 build tools.
I can think of 3 solutions:
Solution 1
========
* Create a top level tools project in which each tool is released separately (and thus
have a separate jira project)
Solution 2
========
* Put them in commons/trunk/xwiki-common-tools/
* Use the same JIRA project for everything in commons/ (ie same release cycles)
* Note: we'll have a JIRA component for each module in commons/
Solution 3
========
* Have commons/xwiki-common-tools/trunk(branches/tags) and
commons/xwiki-common-modules/trunk(branches/tags)
* Use 1 JIRA for commons/xwiki-common-modules/ and one JIRA per tool in
commons/xwiki-common-tools/
* Don't provide a commons/pom.xml file (since otherwise it would be unversionned)
* Note: for artifactIds I'd suggest to not show the "modules" part in the
name, i.e. xwiki-commons--component-api, and not xwiki-commons-module-component-api
hmmm we have the same need for the top level pom actually if we want to version it.
So the best seems to be solution 3 with:
commons/
|_ xwiki-commons-pom
|_ tags
|_ branches
|_ trunk
|_ xwiki-commons-tools
|_ tags
|_ branches
|_ trunk
|_ xwiki-common-modules
|_ tags
|_ branches
|_ trunk
with 4 JIRA projects:
- 1 for xwiki-common-modules XCMODULES
- 1 for xwiki-common-pom XCPOM
- 1 for xwiki-common-tools/xwiki-common-tool-license XCLICENSE
- 1 for xwiki-common-tools/xwiki-common-tool-verifications XCVERIFICATIONS
WDYT?
+0 for this solution.
I don't understand why tools get indivudual JIRA modules while modules
don't, though. IMHO it should be one project XCTOOLS with 2
components, to be consistent with modules.
It has nothing to do with consistency: it's about release cycle and whether it makes
sense to release stuff together or not.
But yes we could decide to release all tools together all the time if we want (that's
not what we've been doing so far but we could do it).
