A common maven parent for usage in kotlin library or application projects.
Maven poms are quite bloated, Most of the settings (how to compile, how to deploy) are repeated over and over.
This maven-parent aims to reduce the xml in your pom.xml to the things you really want to express in your library or application project.
By nature of this module, it is a highly opinionated approach. It might fit your needs, but it is explicitly designed to support open source library
projects we are currently building and maintaining under toolisticon, holunda-io and holixon.
Since this parent wraps countless versions of other libs and plugins, it cannot have any meaningful version itself.
The semantic versioning conventions is YEAR.MONTH.COUNT, so the first build in September would be version=2023.9.0 ... and counting.
This is a maven parent. So just include it on the top of your root pom.xml:
<parent>
<groupId>io.toolisticon.maven.parent</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-parent-kotlin-base</artifactId>
<version>LATEST_VERSION</version>
<relativePath/>
</parent>Carefully analyse your pom (and the effective pom) and remove duplications, unintended overwrites and possible conflicts ... and you are done.
