Describe Goal

Assuming you have configured the Maven JMod Plugin accordingly to the usage page like the following:

  1. <project>
  2.   [...]
  3.   <build>
  4.     [...]
  5.     <plugins>
  6.       [...]
  7.       <plugin>
  8.         <artifactId>maven-jmod-plugin</artifactId>
  9.         <version>3.0.0-alpha-1</version>
  10.         <extensions>true</extensions>
  11.         <configuration>
  12.           <!-- configuration elements goes here -->
  13.         </configuration>
  14.         <executions>
  15.           <execution>
  16.             <id>describe</id>
  17.             <goals>
  18.               <goal>describe</goal>
  19.             </goals>
  20.             <phase>verify</phase>
  21.           </execution>
  22.         </executions>
  23.       </plugin>        
  24.       </plugin>
  25.    [...]
  26. </project>

You can run via:

  1. mvn clean verify

During the above call of Maven the jmod files will be generated and by the describe goal you will get an output like the following (using toolchains):

  1. [INFO] --- maven-jmod-plugin:3.0.0-alpha-1:describe (describe) @ first-jmod ---
  2. [INFO] Toolchain in maven-jmod-plugin: jmod [ /../jdk1.9.0_ea+181.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/jmod ]
  3. [INFO] The following information is contained in the module file /.../maven-single-jmod-example/target/jmods/first-jmod.jmod
  4. [INFO] com.corporate.project@1.0-SNAPSHOT
  5. [INFO] exports com.corporate.project
