This goal should be used as a Maven report.

Full name:

org.codehaus.mojo:versions-maven-plugin:2.17.1:plugin-updates-aggregate-report

Description:

Generates an aggregated report of available updates for the plugins of a project.

Attributes:

  • Requires a Maven project to be executed.
  • Executes as an aggregator goal.
  • Requires dependency resolution of artifacts in scope: runtime.
  • The goal is thread-safe and supports parallel builds.
  • Since version: 2.14.0.

Optional Parameters

Name Type Since Description
<allowSnapshots> boolean 1.0-alpha-3 Whether to allow snapshots when searching for the latest version of an artifact.
Default: false
User Property: allowSnapshots
<comparisonMethod> String 1.0-alpha-1 The versioning rule to use when comparing versions. Valid values are maven, numeric which will handle long version numbers provided all components are numeric, or mercury which will use the mercury version number comparison rules.
User Property: comparisonMethod
<formats> String[] - Report formats (html and/or xml). HTML by default.
Default: html
User Property: pluginUpdatesReportFormats
<ignoredVersions> Set<String> 2.13.0

Allows specifying ignored versions directly as an alternative to providing the ruleSet parameter; mainly created for -D property usage.

Example: "1\.0\.1,.+-M.,.*-SNAPSHOT"

Currently, this parameter will override the defined ruleSet


User Property: maven.version.ignore
<onlyProjectPlugins> boolean 2.12 If true, only shows the subsection of the pluginManagement artifacts that are actually used in the project's plugin graph. false by default.
Default: false
User Property: onlyProjectPlugins
<onlyUpgradable> boolean 2.12 If true, only shows upgradable plugins in the report. false by default.
Default: false
User Property: onlyUpgradable
<ruleSet> RuleSet 2.13.0

Allows specifying the org.codehaus.mojo.versions.model.RuleSet object describing rules on artifact versions to ignore when considering updates.

<rulesUri> String 1.0-alpha-3 URI of a ruleSet file containing the rules that control how to compare version numbers. The URI could be either a Wagon URI or a classpath URI (e.g. classpath:///package/sub/package/rules.xml).
User Property: maven.version.rules
<serverId> String 1.0-alpha-3 settings.xml's server id for the URL. This is used when wagon needs extra authentication information.
Default: serverId
User Property: maven.version.rules.serverId
<skip> boolean 1.0-alpha-3 Skip entire check.
User Property: versions.skip
