Interface LifecycleProvider

All Superinterfaces:
ExtensibleEnumProvider<Lifecycle>, SpiService
All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultLifecycleRegistry.LifecycleWrapperProvider
@Experimental @Consumer @Named public interface LifecycleProvider extends ExtensibleEnumProvider<Lifecycle>
Service provider interface for registering custom Lifecycle implementations.

This interface allows plugins and extensions to define and register additional build lifecycles beyond the standard ones provided by Maven (like clean, default, site). Lifecycles define a sequence of phases that can be executed during a build.

Implementations of this interface will be discovered through the Java ServiceLoader mechanism and their provided lifecycles will be available throughout the Maven build process.

Example usage: 

 public class CustomLifecycleProvider implements LifecycleProvider {
     public Collection<Lifecycle> provides() {
         return Collections.singleton(
             lifecycle("deploy-docker", Arrays.asList(
                 "build-image",
                 "tag-image",
                 "push-image"
             ))
         );
     }
 }
