Build single bundle checkout - WSO2

Sometime you need to checkout single bundle from WSO2 source repository and build. Lets say you need to check out this bundle and build.

svn co https://svn.wso2.org/repos/wso2/carbon/platform/branches/turing/components/identity/org.wso2.carbon.identity.application.authenticator.facebook/4.2.0

If you try to build using maven (version >= 3.0.5), it will end with following error.

How to fix.

1. You need to remove the <parent> element.

<!--parent>
        <groupId>org.wso2.carbon</groupId>
        <artifactId>identity</artifactId>
        <version>4.2.0</version>
        <relativePath>../../pom.xml</relativePath>
</parent-->

2. Add groupId element.

<groupId>org.wso2.carbon</groupId>

3. Define the version for all the dependencies that not available. Eg:

<dependency>
         <groupId>org.wso2.carbon</groupId>
         <artifactId>org.wso2.carbon.logging</artifactId>
         <version>4.2.0</version>
</dependency>

      <dependency>
         <groupId>org.wso2.carbon</groupId>
         <artifactId>org.wso2.carbon.ui</artifactId>
         <version>4.2.0</version>
</dependency>

4. Define the maven repositories to get the artifacts.

<repositories>
      <!-- WSO2 released artifact repository -->
      <repository>
         <id>wso2.releases</id>
         <name>WSO2 Releases Repository</name>
         <url>http://maven.wso2.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/</url>
         <releases>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <updatePolicy>daily</updatePolicy>
            <checksumPolicy>ignore</checksumPolicy>
         </releases>
      </repository>
      <repository>
         <id>wso2-nexus</id>
         <name>WSO2 internal Repository</name>
         <url>http://maven.wso2.org/nexus/content/groups/wso2-public/</url>
         <releases>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <updatePolicy>daily</updatePolicy>
            <checksumPolicy>ignore</checksumPolicy>
         </releases>
      </repository>
</repositories>
