How to bind maven plugin execution to project snapshots only?

What I want to do is when I run the command "mvn install" I need a plugin to execute. Specifically, I need a sonar plugin that will check if there are any critical issues in the project. If so, the build will fail.

However, I only want this plugin to run on the "development" branch. The development branch project version is as follows: 1.0.5-SNAPSHOT. Master branch version of the project: 1.0.5

So how do I run the plugin only on the development branch? I thought I could do it based on version (snapshot only) but I'm not sure if this is possible

What you are trying to do is not supported out of the box - the plugin cannot automatically launch based on your project <version/>

. (Well, that's not entirely true, but you must be the plugin author and write your own logic for this if you really wanted to, but this only applies to your plugin).

I would suggest creating a Maven profile and running it via a command line variable ( -DmyParam

) or specifying the profile name ( -PmyDevProfile

).



Take a look at the following links to better understand Maven profiles:

I think you can achieve this behavior in the following way. First add the build-helper-maven-plugin plugin to your build (at the beginning).

<build>
  <plugins>
   <plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
      <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>1.10</version>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <id>bsh-property</id>
          <goals>
            <goal>bsh-property</goal>
          </goals>
          <configuration>
            <properties>
              <property>skip.sonar</property>
            </properties>
            <source>skip.sonar = project.getVersion().endsWith("-SNAPSHOT") ? false : true;</source>
          </configuration>
       </execution>
    </executions>
  </plugin>
</plugins>



The bsh-property target executes a beanshell script that defines the skip.sonar property to be true or false, depending on whether your version has a snapshot at the end or not.

Then you can use skip property for sonar maven module.

<build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
        <artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.7.1</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
          ...
          <configuration>
            <skip>${skip.sonar}</skip>
          </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
