MAVEN(1)							   User Commands							  MAVEN(1)

NAME

       Maven - Creates a link in /usr/share/maven-repo for an existing jar.

SYNOPSIS

       mh_linkjar [option]... [pom] [dest_jar] [link]...

DESCRIPTION

       Create  symlinks for a jar installed by other means. The symlinks created include links to the jar in /usr/share/maven-repo, at the correct
       location for Maven.  It can also create additional links to the jar, usually located in /usr/share/java.

       Where

	      [pom] is the location of the POM associated with the jar to install.

	      GroupId, artifactId and version will be extracted from this file.

	      [dest_jar] is the path of the installed jar, usually located in the

	      usr/share/java folder.

	      [link] is an additional link to the jar to install, usually there should

	      be a link to usr/share/java/$jar.jar and usr/share/java/$jar-$version.jar to comply with the Java packaging  guidelines.	Note  that
	      there is no need to specify those particular links if the --java-lib option is used.

OPTIONS

       -h --help: show this text

       -V --version: show the version

       -p<package> --package=<package>: name of the Debian package which

	      will contain this jar file

       -e<version>, --set-version=<version>: set the version for the jar,

	      do not use the version declared in the POM file.

       -r<rules> --rules=<rules>: path to the file containing the

	      rules to apply when cleaning the POM.  Optional, the default location is debian/maven.rules Maven rules are used here to extract the
	      groupId, artifactId and version from the POM file.

       -l --java-lib: Optional, if given it will install the jar into

	      /usr/share/java to comply with the Debian Java specification.  The jar will be installed as /usr/share/java/$name-$version.jar and a
	      versionless link /usr/share/java/$name.jar will point to it, as well as the links installed in /usr/share/maven-repo

       -n<name> --usj-name=<name>: Optional, the name to use when installing the

	      library in /usr/share/java when --java-lib is used.  Defaults to the artifact id found in the POM.

       -j<version> --usj-version=<version>: Optional, the version to use when

	      installing the library in /usr/share/java when --java-lib is used.  Defaults to the version found in the POM.

       -s --no-usj-versionless: Optional, don't install the versionless link

	      in /usr/share/java.  This flag is used only when the -l or --java-lib option is given.

       -c<classifier> --classifier=<classifier>: Optional, the classifier for

	      the jar. Empty by default.

       -v --verbose: show more information while running

       -n --no-act: don't actually do anything, just print the results

       --skip-clean-pom: don't clean the pom, assume that a previous action ran

	      mh_cleanpom with the correct options. mh_cleanpom is run only to extract the groupId, artifactId and version of the jar

NAME

       jh_manifest - Adds or/and modifies manifests for jars

SYNOPSIS

       jh_manifest  [debhelperoptions]	[options]  jar1 ... jarN

       jh_manifest  [debhelperoptions]	[options]

DESCRIPTION

       Javahelper tool to add or update manifests in a jar file. It can be used in two modes. If passed jar files, it will only process these jar
       files. Otherwise it will update all jar files in the packages it acts on.

       When processing a package, the debhelper(7) exclude option will make jh_manifest ignore matching jar files.

FILES

       debian/package.manifest (or debian/manifest)
	   This file consist of a list of jar files and values to add to their manifests. Values in this file will take precedence over values in
	   the original manifest (and command line arguments over values in this file).

	   It is allowed to list a link in this file instead of an actual jar file, provided that the link can be resolved when jh_manifest
	   processes it.

	   If a jar file is listed here cannot be found, jh_manifest will print a warning, unless the jar file has been excluded.

	   As of javahelper >= 0.32, you may add comments in this file. If the line starts with a "#" it is completely ignored.

	   This file is ignored if jh_manifest is passed jar files via command line.

OPTIONS

       -c classpath, --classpath=classpath
	   Sets the Class-Path attribute of all processed jar files to classpath.

	   If not passed, then the CLASSPATH environment variable will be used in the given jar file do not have a Class-Path attribute.

       -m class, --main=class
	   Sets the Main-Class attribute to class in all processed jar files.

       -o options, --javaopts=options
	   Sets the Debian-Java-Parameters to options in all processed jar files. This attribute is used by jarwrapper to start java with extra
	   options (e.g. to make more memory available).

       -j /path/to/java/home, --java-home=/path/to/java/home
	   Sets the Debian-Java-Home attribute to /path/to/java/home in all processed jars. This attribute is used by jarwrapper to determine
	   which JVM to use.

EXAMPLES

       An example debian/manifest file:

	# use the symlink so we do not have to update with the next upstream release.
	usr/share/java/my.jar:
	 Class-Path: dep1.jar dep2.jar
	 Main-Class: some.awesome.Class
	usr/share/java/dep2.jar:
	 Class-Path: dep1.jar
