xwiki-commons-modules
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?
I'm still unsure about the name "modules". Components might be better:
xwiki-common-components.
It's just a little bit confusing with xwiki-common-components/xwiki-common-component/
Maybe xwiki-common-libraries but libraries is not a term very used in the java world.

I'm hesitating between solutions 2 and 3.
Solution 2 is the simplest of all. It just means all common is released together.
WDYT?
If you don't have any idea I'll just pick the one I think is best. We need to
progress since the release is for Monday.
Thanks
