Because I have already the compiled source and I do not need to recompile them (or to modify anything) I decided to package them using the pom assembly.
I made a separate project (under the same parent's than my plugins developement projects) called like openemm-src:
Parent project (openemm-plugin-dev)
|- plugin-1
|- plugin-2
|- openemm-src
|- pom.xml
The pom.xml for the openemm-src
project looks like:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<parent>
<groupId>openemm.plugin.dev</groupId>
<artifactId>plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>
<artifactId>openemm-src</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<name>OpenEMM Source Code Library</name>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/assembly/src-plugin.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>make-assembly</id> <!-- this is used for inheritance merges -->
<phase>package</phase> <!-- bind to the packaging phase -->
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<xecution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</project>
and the file src/assembly/src-plugin.xml
:
<assembly>
<formats>
<format>jar</format>
</formats>
<includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<directory>build/classes</directory>
<outputDirectory></outputDirectory>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</assembly>
After this, I refers the jar from the siblings projects like this:
<dependency>
<groupId>openemm.plugin.dev</groupId>
<artifactId>openemm-src</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
This solution is looking more like a workaround, but this is because the OpenEMM project does not have any "Plugin Template Project" to be managed with Maven.
Note this is just a partial configuration and I had also to refers to the Agnitas libraries which did not contains all the source code (both were necessary to compile my code).
