56 +By default, Maven will search the groupId org.apache.maven.plugins for prefix-to-artifactId mappings for the plug-ins it needs to perform a given build. However, WOProject maven plug-ins belong to a different group: *org.objectstyle.woproject.maven2*. Since the Maven project is assumed to have control over the default plug-in groupId, we can configure Maven to search other groupId locations for plugin-prefix mappings.
57 +
58 +In the Maven settings file (per-user: ~/.m2/settings.xml; global: $M2_HOME/conf/settings.xml), you can provide a custom pluginGroups section, listing the plugin groupIds you want to search (each groupId goes in its own pluginGroup sub-element). For example, if your projects use a WOProject maven plug-in, you might have the following in your settings:
59 +
60 +{code:xml|title=settings.xml}
61 +<settings>
62 +...
63 + <pluginGroups>
64 + <pluginGroup>org.objectstyle.woproject.maven2</pluginGroup>
65 + </pluginGroups>
66 +...
67 +</settings>
68 +{code}
69 +
70 +Now you can directly execute plug-ins, i.e. *mvn woproject:goal* instead of *mvn org.objectstyle.woproject.maven2:maven-woproject-plugin:goal*.
