This repository collects odds and ends for Dropwizard services that have proven consistently useful.

Setting Up for the Build Number Command

The BuildNumber command requires the following additions to the Maven project that is used to build the Dropwizard service in question.

First, the <scm>...</scm> section of the POM should be filled in, e.g.:

<scm>
  <developerConnection>scm:git:git@github.com:Multifarious/dw-goodies.git</developerConnection>
</scm>

Second, the maven-scm-plugin (provides Git integration), buildnumber-maven-plugin (populates Git SHA into ${buildNumber}), and maven-jar-plugin (puts ${buildNumber} in the JAR manifest) need to all be set up to work together:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>1.8.1</version>
  <configuration>
    <connectionType>developerConnection</connectionType>
  </configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
  <configuration>
    <archive>
...
    <manifestEntries>
      <Implementation-Build>${buildNumber}</Implementation-Build>
    </manifestEntries>
    </archive>
  </configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
  <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
  <artifactId>buildnumber-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>1.2</version>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <phase>validate</phase>
      <goals>
        <goal>create</goal>
      </goals>
    </execution>
  </executions>
  <!-- alter these to inlfluence how build numbers are applied/enforced w.r.t. local changes and upstream -->
  <configuration>
    <doCheck>false</doCheck>
    <doUpdate>false</doUpdate>
  </configuration>
</plugin>
