Method Detail

getArtifactId

public String getArtifactId()

Get the artifact id of the parent project to inherit from.

Returns:

String

getGroupId

public String getGroupId()

Get the group id of the parent project to inherit from.

Returns:

String

getRelativePath

public String getRelativePath()

Get the relative path of the parent pom.xml file within the check out. The default value is ../pom.xml. Maven looks for the parent pom first in the reactor of currently building projects, then in this location on the filesystem, then the local repository, and lastly in the remote repo. relativePath allows you to select a different location, for example when your structure is flat, or deeper without an intermediate parent pom. However, the group ID, artifact ID and version are still required, and must match the file in the location given or it will revert to the repository for the POM. This feature is only for enhancing the development in a local checkout of that project.

Returns:

String
