I wanted to start one add-on hobby project this weekend. Unfortunately vaadin-archetype-widget has not been ported for Vaadin 7 and I ended up porting and renewing the archetype instead of starting my add-on project.
The new archetype is not published to any repository yet - I would like to hear your commends about it first.
Awesome. I appreciate you doing this. It worked great for me. I had a Vaadin 7 addon project up and running with this in no time.
I wasn’t sure on how to use this as I am fairly new to maven, so these are the steps I took on using this archetype.
Install the archetype in my local repo.
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=c:\vaadin-archetype-widget-7.0-SNAPSHOT.jar -DgroupId=com.vaadin -DartifactId=vaadin-archetype-widget -Dversion=7.0-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar
Use it to generate the widget add-on project.
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.vaadin -DarchetypeArtifactId=vaadin-archetype-widget -DarchetypeVersion=7.0-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=war
