Welcome to Antmod
Antmod is a Java and Ant based tool for:
Build Management:
Antmod plugins help you speed-up java development
Share build files across projects in a consistent way
Release Management:
Release descriptors describe your projects
Versioning is standardized across projects
Modularize your software development process
Repository Management:
CVS or Subversion repositories are accessible easily and consistently
Antmod makes any (Java) development environment more consistent and manageable.

Welcome to Antmod
What is Antmod
Antmod is a tool for retrieving, versioning, building and deploying code from
and to Subversion or CVS. It is ideally suited for Java projects, but can handle
non-Java projects as well. Find out the latest news and the current status in
the News and Status section!
Antmod is based on the concept of modules, stored in a repository. It uses Ant
for retrieving and versioning code, and prefers Ant for building and deploying
the modules. In short, Antmod adds the following to Ant:
organize software in modules
advanced out-of-the-box buildfiles
an easy standardized tagging and branching policy for CVS and Subversion
share and reuse any module contents across projects
get a Java/J2EE project organized and built within minutes
How does it work
Antmod organizes software in the following way:
releases:
Nothing is released if it's not described as a release. The release descriptor
defines which modules and which module versions to use. It also defines which
java libraries it depends on.
modules:
Sources and other software artifacts are functionally grouped into modules,
stored in a repository, either CVS or Subversion.
When a release is checked out, Antmod places out-of-the-box nice advanced Ant
buildfiles in the release and each module, that help you get up and running
within minutes, thanks to the solid set of Antmod build plugins.
Antmod and other build systems
Antmod is different from other build systems out there. Compared to Ant, it is a
layer on top of it, adding reuse of buildfiles, modules and standardizing the
way the repository is used.
Compared to Maven, it has been implemented more lean and mean, removing the need
for the scripting language Jelly which is abusing XML for logic. With Antmod you
can share any module contents (such as documentation, JSPs, EJBs, etcetera)
across releases, while Maven is best suited for sharing JAR contents. What
Antmod addresses and Maven was never meant to address, is the retrieval from a
repository, along with standardized tagging and branching. Finally, Maven is
only suitable for Java projects, while Antmod's repository management can be
used just fine in non-Java projects as well (using the buildtype attribute of a
release).
Compared to a-a-p it doesn't start all over again, but instead reuses the power
of Ant. Basically, a-a-p focuses on the whole build spectrum, while Antmod
includes repository management and leans on Ant.
Antmod benefits
Antmod gives you the following:
Standardize buildfiles
For Java projects, Antmod places nice standardized buildfiles on module and
release level, in this way standardizing the way each module and release is
built.
Allow customized builds per module and release
Antmod allows modules and releases to override default behavior in the buildfile
by committing a "local.build.xml" in the root of the module with the overridden
build logic.
Enable reuse of components across projects
It is as simple as adding the module to the release descriptor of the project.
Modularized approach to software artefacts
Code, documentation, configuration, etcetera is grouped in modules that are
versioned in a consistent way per module.
Standardize repository usage
Everything is in a module, the module is the versioning unit, and tagging and
branching happens per module. Tag and branch names are standardized.
Centralized overview across releases and projects
Release descriptors describe what a release consists of, and are stored
centrally in the repository. This provides a centralized view across releases
and projects.
Separate developer and release manager roles
The release descriptors can be maintained by a release manager, and do not have
to be maintained by the developer.
