1. Create your project from the archetype

This project is based on maven archetype technology that has been included in the product since Abiquo-4.0.4, so you must use the latest version for the Abiquo installation.

To create your own backup plugin project using archetype, just run:

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.abiquo -DarchetypeArtifactId=backup-plugin-archetype \
-DarchetypeVersion=<abiquo-version> \
-DgroupId=<your-group-id> \
-DartifactId=<your-artifact-id> \
-DinteractiveMode=true -Dgoals=compile

Replacing:

abiquo-version : The version of the maven archetype, which is the same as that of the Abiquo installation. For example: 4.0.4
your-group-id : The group id of the maven project. Usually this is the enterprise that owns the project, for example we use com.abiquo.
your-artifact-id: The name of the project. For example myownplugin.

Example:

Example of command run and output

>> mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.abiquo -DarchetypeArtifactId=backup-plugin-archetype \                                                           
-DarchetypeVersion=4.0.4 \           
-DgroupId=org.example \    
-DartifactId=myownplugin \       
-DinteractiveMode=true -Dgoals=compile
