10 == Getting Started ==
11
12 * Install [[Maven2>>http://maven.apache.org]] on a local machine.
13 * Add ObjectStyle Maven2 repository to the project POM //(we may distribute the plugins via Ibiblio at some point too)//. E.g.:
14
15 {{code title="pom.xml"}}

37 * Plugins are bound to the build lifecycle via "project/build/plugins" section of the POM. Here is a general example, for more details see documentation of individual plugins:
38
39 {{code title="pom.xml"}}
40
41 <build>
42 <plugins>
43 <plugin>
44 <groupId>org.objectstyle.woproject.maven2</groupId>
45
46 plugin specific information goes here...
47
48 </plugin>
49 </plugins>
50 </build>
51
52 {{/code}}
53
54 {{info title="Useful Information"}}

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*.
