Build Status Maven Central

This maven plugin generates services files for the ServiceLoader introduced in Java 6 : https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html

Use

for example:

<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>eu.somatik.serviceloader-maven-plugin</groupId>
      <artifactId>serviceloader-maven-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>1.1.0</version>
      <configuration>
        <services>
          <param>com.foo.Dictionary</param>
          <param>com.foo.Operation</param>
        </services>
      </configuration>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <goals>
            <goal>generate</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

this will generate these files:

  • META-INF/services/com.foo.Dictionary
  • META-INF/services/com.foo.Operation

by scanning the generated classes and finding all non-abstract/non-interface implementations of the service interfaces. The plugin itself has no Java 6 dependency

Excludes / includes

Additionally it is possible to filter implementation classes via includes and excludes section in the configuration. The class name notation is the same as for the services section.

for example:

<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>eu.somatik.serviceloader-maven-plugin</groupId>
      <artifactId>serviceloader-maven-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>1.1.0</version>
      <configuration>
        <services>
          <param>com.foo.Dictionary</param>
          <param>com.foo.Operation</param>
        </services>
        <includes>
          <include>*.RightClass*</include>
        </includes>
      </configuration>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <goals>
            <goal>generate</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

This should add only implementation classes that begin with RightClass*.

Missing Service Classes

The default action when a service class is missing is to fail the build. If you want to ignore this service, you can use the failOnMissingServiceClass option (true by default).

for example:

<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>eu.somatik.serviceloader-maven-plugin</groupId>
      <artifactId>serviceloader-maven-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>1.1.0</version>
      <configuration>
      	<failOnMissingServiceClass>false</failOnMissingServiceClass>
        <services>
          <param>com.foo.MissingService</param>
        </services>
      </configuration>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <goals>
            <goal>generate</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

Example

A example project is provided and can be run like this:

$ mvn clean install
...
[INFO] Generating service file .../example/target/classes/META-INF/services/eu.somatik.serviceloader.Operation
[INFO]   + eu.somatik.serviceloader.SimpleOperation
...

$ java -jar target/example-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Found service implementation: eu.somatik.serviceloader.SimpleOperation@579a19fd
Hello world
