Getting Started

1. Create Poml File

Create a pom.poml and save the following text. (ex. in the demo directory.)

pkg=com.example:demo:0.0.1:jar
depend=
  org.slf4j:slf4j-api:1.7.25,
  junit:junit:4.12:test
properties=&encoding>UTF-8, &compiler>1.8

2. Execute Poml Command

Execute poml. ( After Installing Poml. )

demo$ poml
[INFO] Converting pom.poml
[INFO] Created pom.xml @30ms

3. Check Pom XML

Following pom.xml is created.

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

  <groupId>com.example</groupId>
  <artifactId>demo</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.1</version>
  <packaging>jar</packaging>

  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
      <artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
      <version>1.7.25</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>junit</groupId>
      <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
      <version>4.12</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>

  <properties>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
    <project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding>
    <maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
    <maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>
  </properties>
</project>

Above pom.poml and pom.xml are in example/demo.

Example

In the following directories, pom.poml and converted pom.xml exist.

• example/all: Using all configs of Poml
• example/all-layout: Using all configs and "Layout Section"
• example/demo-layout: Using "Layout Section"

Showcase

• poml: eats own poml.
• kaze: java framework, deployed to the maven central repository.
• kaze-sample-rdb: kaze web app, packaged as fatjar.

Versioning

Number is MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, based on Semantic Versioning 2.0.0.

Increment the:

1. MAJOR for incompatible changes on poml syntax or command,
2. MINOR for backwards-compatible changes on those, and
3. PATCH for backwards-compatible bug fixes.
