maven-pom-mode

An EMACS major mode for editting maven pom files

I am creating this mode to pull together a lot of the ideas on pom editting from around the inter-tubes as well as to integreate with https://github.com/m0smith/malabar-mode via issue m0smith/malabar-mode#92.

What it is good for

• Integrates with nxml-mode for error highlighting and code completion.
• C-M-i give valid suggestions.
• C-c / will close a tag.
• C-c i will complete an inline tag.
• C-c b will complete an block tag.
• C-c d will Search for artifacts in maven central and insert dependency tag via maven-pom-add-dependency. Use a prefix (C-u) to prompt for a scope.

Installation

From the shell:

git clone https://github.com/m0smith/maven-pom-mode.git

In Emacs:

(add-to-list 'load-path "path to maven-pom-mode")
(load "maven-pom-mode")

Acknowledgements

I am indeed standing on the shoulders of giants including:

• torstein.k.johansen for nXML integration ideas and files
• Dave Paroulek for the work on searching for artifacts in maven central (or other nexus repo)
