Overview

A set of bash scripts that know how to interact with Maven and the Maven configuration. They provide extended operational capabilities for Nova Ordis projects: runtime wrappers, building artifacts to be distributed, local and remote installation, etc. A customized copy of these scripts is installed under the ./bin directory for each project.

In the future, the utilities will gain the capability of driving Go projects as well, offering a unified command line interface for Java and Go projects.

    <command> [global-options] <command-arguments> | operations [global-options] <command> <command-arguments>

    install [-f|--force]

    release <snapshot|minor|major|patch|"version-string">

        Makes a release by incrementing the release information appropriately, running all tests, building the final
        artifact and installing the artifact in the appropriate repository. If a version string is used, the string
        is checked for consistency. The release process will fail if the version string is invalid or represents an
        older version than the current version.

     test - internal release tools testing shortcut. Advanced users only.

Installation:

    ./src/main/bash/operations install-release-tools <project-home-directory>

        The installation functionality can currently only be accessed from the original repository.
        'install-release-tools' installs the release tools into the 'bin' subdirectory of the specified project home
        directory. A target directory qualifies as "project home directory" if it has a Maven pom.xml in it. If an
        older version of the release tools is already installed, 'install-release-tools' will upgrade in place.

Per-Project Configuration:

    Create an operations.conf in the directory the release tools were installed into and configure local project
    properties.
