You've reached the ( http://maven.alfresco.com/nexus/content/repositories/alfresco-docs/maven-alfresco-lifecycle/maven-alfresco-archetypes/maven-alfresco-share-archetype ) Maven Alfresco Extension archetype home page (version: 3.9.1)
For a quick start you can a maven alfresco extension project created by just running (maven 2.0.6+ required):
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=http://maven.alfresco.com/nexus/content/repositories/releases/archetype-catalog.xml
and then choose the option 'maven-alfresco-share-archetype' and fill your custom project information. You can also do this via Eclipse using the m2eclipse plugin.
The command below allows you to package your Share customization, run unit tests and eventually run jetty embedded with Alfresco
mvn install -Prun
You should be able to point your browser to http://localhost:8081/share and see your nice custom Alfresco Share running. You might need to raise the MAVEN_OPTS memory allocated to Maven.
Prerequisite:
The only prerequisite is to have a previously running Alfresco instance (by default at http://localhost:8080/alfresco/).
You can configure the Alfresco endpoint and runtime directly via the generated pom.xml using the following POM properties:
<env>local</env>
<share.servlet.port>8081</share.servlet.port>The <env>> property (default 'local') is used to switch between the different property files in src/main/properties allowing fully environment independent builds. You can tune your Share behavior using your custom env and configuring an additional application.properties file.
The <share.servlet.port> (default 8081) is the port bound by Jetty during run embedded.
