local repository purge plugin

[Benoit Decherf-2]

Hi,

I wrote a plugin to clean the local repository. I think that this plugin
could be useful for a lot of people.
How can I submit it ?

Thanks,
Benoit

How does this plugin relate to the existing goals
  dependency:purge-local-repository
and
  buildhelper:remove-project-artifact
?

Checkout the article "Submitting a Plugin" [2] on the Mojo website.

These 2 plugins works on a specific project (to remove the artifacts,
and to remove all snapshots dependencies).
I need a plugin that remove all old snapshots from the local repository
(like archiva do).

Before creating the issue, I should ask for it in this mailing list. So,
are you agree to create this plugin ?

Can you tell us more about your plugin? How does it decide which
snapshots to remove?

cool plugin, i can get my developer to run this mojo once a while to
clean all the old snapshot.

This mojo may be a candidate for maven-repository-plugin's new feature
at apache.  http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-repository-plugin/

Like for Archiva : There are 2 parameters daysOld and retentionCount.

It search for all ".pom" in the local repository (The path of the repository is configurable).
If the pom is older than daysOld (in the artifact name), the pom and all file with the same name (minus the suffix) are deleted to let only the last <retentionCount> versions.

-SNAPSHOT.pom are ignored (maybe this should be optional).

At this time I develop it entirely, but I will extract classes from archiva (archiva-core-consumers) to also be able to delete released snapshots.

This plugin is very useful for all developers and for continuous integration server to not let the repository grows.

ping. :)  Benoit, this sounds very useful!  Submitting it here would
be a good start, and then as Dan mentioned it might make more sense in
the Repository plugin.

Local repo size is also a problem on CI servers-- we're tracking a
related issue in Continuum:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-1693

Where should I submit the code ? directly to the mailing list ?

I don't use the code of archiva for the moment.
