[HBASE-17598] new archetypes apparently not deployed to Maven Central Repository

• Type: Bug
• Status: Open

• Resolution: Unresolved
• Affects Version/s: 1.3.0, 1.3.1

Description

On search.maven.org, one sees that most of the artifacts for the 1.3.0 release have been successfully deployed, but neither of the two new archetypes can apparently be found there:
hbase-client-project-archetype
hbase-shaded-client-project-archetype

We do see the projects used to build the archetypes (which actually probably don't need to be published via Maven), but we do not see the archetypes themselves.
For a specific example, the following artifacts (POM and JAR) need to have been deployed for the first archetype listed above:
hbase/hbase-archetypes/hbase-client-project/target/build-archetype/target/generated-sources/archetype/pom.xml

hbase/hbase-archetypes/hbase-client-project/target/build-archetype/target/generated-sources/archetype/target/hbase-client-project-archetype-1.3.0.jar
(The awkwardly deep directory structures are what the Maven archetype-generation tools generate during the build of hbase.)

BTW, the Maven documentation on the deployment of archetypes amounts to a single sentence:
"Once you are happy with the state of your archetype, you can deploy (or submit it to Maven Central) it as any other artifact and the archetype will then be available to any user of Maven."
That sentence is found on this page: https://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-creating-archetypes.html
