Interface ArchetypeDataSource

All Known Implementing Classes:

CatalogArchetypeDataSource, InternalCatalogArchetypeDataSource, RemoteCatalogArchetypeDataSource

public interface ArchetypeDataSource

Sources we can get Archetypes from. This may be the local registry, a Wiki, or, a Maven Repository application. We might also want to get all the Archetypes based on some predetermined criteria and that could be anything given the source. A simple use-case might be to grab all Archetypes for a particular groupId, or Archetypes for webapps, or who knows what.
