  • mule-packager

  • mule-deployer

  • mule-maven-plugin

  • mule-artifact-it

mule-classloader-model

Contains the abstract model which describes the descriptor files used when generating a repository for heavy weight packages

mule-packager

Contains the Java API that allows you to create the different Mule artifacts:

  • mule-application

  • mule-policy

  • mule-domain

It also contains a set of validators to ensure that the artifact can be generated properly

mule-deployer

Debugging

In case you run into problems while using the plugin and wants to try find the cause by yourself, you can easily debug the plugin using mvnDebug. These are the steps:

  • Clone this project;

  • In the project base folder, checkout to the tag that corresponds to the version of the mule project that you are building/deploying;

  • Then, run

mvn clean install
  • In your IDE, create a new remote debug configuration and set the port to 8000;

  • Run the command that failed and that you want to debug, but replace mvn by mvnDebug (check the tips session below);

  • Place a breakpoint in one of the mojos of the mule-maven-plugin module (that should be a good starting point);

  • Start debugging.

Tips:

To find the right tag, run

git tag -l
  • And then run

git checkout <tag_name>

Also, if the build failed when invoking (as an example)

mvn clean deploy -DmuleDeploy

You should debug by running

mvnDebug clean deploy -DmuleDeploy
