Plugin Documentation

Goals available for this plugin:

Goal Description
gplus:addSources This mojo adds Groovy sources to the project's sources.
gplus:addStubSources Adds Groovy stubs directory back to Maven's list of source directories. Normally, you won't need to use this mojo.
gplus:addTestSources This mojo adds Groovy test sources to the project's test sources.
gplus:addTestStubSources Adds Groovy test stubs directory back to Maven's list of test source directories. Normally, you won't need to use this mojo.
gplus:compile Compiles the main sources. Note that this mojo requires Groovy >= 1.5.0, and >= 2.0.0-beta-3 (the indy version) for compiling with invokedynamic option.
gplus:compileTests Compiles the test sources. Note that this mojo requires Groovy >= 1.5.0, and >= 2.0.0-beta-3 (the indy version) for compiling with invokedynamic option.
gplus:console Launches a Groovy console window bound to the current project. Note that this mojo requires Groovy >= 1.5.0. Note that it references the plugin classloader to pull in dependencies Groovy didn't include (for things like Ant for AntBuilder, Ivy for @grab, and Jansi for Groovysh). Note that using the ant property requires Java 8, as the included Ant version was compiled for Java 8.
gplus:execute Executes Groovy scripts (in the pom or external), bound to the current project. Note that this mojo requires Groovy >= 1.5.0. Note that it references the plugin classloader to pull in dependencies Groovy didn't include (for things like Ant for AntBuilder, Ivy for @grab, and Jansi for Groovysh).
gplus:generateStubs Generates stubs for the main Groovy sources and adds them to Maven's sources for the Maven compiler plugin to find. Note that this mojo requires Groovy >= 1.8.2.
gplus:generateTestStubs Generates stubs for the test Groovy sources and adds them to Maven's test sources for the Maven compiler plugin to find. Note that this mojo requires Groovy >= 1.8.2.
gplus:groovydoc Generates GroovyDoc for the main sources.
gplus:groovydoc-jar Create a GroovyDoc jar for the main sources. Note by default this will also invoke the groovydoc goal (unless invokeGroovyDoc is false).
gplus:groovydocTests Generates GroovyDoc for the test sources.
gplus:groovydocTests-jar Create a GroovyDoc jar for the test sources. Note by default this will also invoke the groovydocTests goal (unless invokeGroovyDoc is false).
gplus:help Display help information on gmavenplus-plugin.
Call mvn gplus:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal=<goal-name> to display parameter details.
gplus:removeStubs This mojo removes Groovy stubs from the project's sources.
gplus:removeTestStubs This mojo removes Groovy test stubs from the project's sources.
gplus:shell Launches a Groovy shell bound to the current project. Note that this mojo requires Groovy >= 1.5.0. Note that it references the plugin ClassLoader to pull in dependencies Groovy didn't include (for things like Ant for AntBuilder, Ivy for @grab, and Jansi for Groovysh).
