Get the SVN revision number into the sitemap on 2.2

[Kjetil Kjernsmo-4]

All,

We're in a system test phase, and it would be useful for the testers to know
which Subversion revision they are testing. Thus, I'd like to get this into
the XSLT as a variable, which is easy if the sitemap can get hold of it
somehow.

So, I figured maven could get the revision number somehow at build time, but I
couldn't find any concrete way of doing it. Is there a way?


Kind regards

The maven buildnumber plugin does this, see

Ah, great, cool! But how do I communicate the ${buildNumber} to the sitemap,
then?

Kind regards

I haven't used that with Cocoon, but what I did is writing it to the
manifest of a jar as explained in the above page. To access that from
a sitemap I guess you'd need to write an input module.

I'm not sure if it's not that Cocoon already provides means for reading the contents of manifest file.

Anyway, you can easily create a simple XML file in your resources directory containing
${buildNumber}. Then you need to enable filtering for that resource as shown here:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-resources-plugin/examples/filter.html

Ah, OK. That sounds feasible indeed.
