Using OpenDaylight starter archetype does not work

Question

Trying to follow the opendaylight developer tutorial to get an initial hello world application running on the controller, however running the command

mvn archet         


        

Answer 1

I have found a solution in the OpenDaylight forum.

Please remove -DarchtypeCatlog=http://nexus.opendaylight.org/content/repositories/opendaylight.release/archetype-catalog.xml

and execute following command.

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.opendaylight.controller -DarchetypeArtifactId=opendaylight-startup-archetype -DarchetypeRepository=http://nexus.opendaylight.org/content/repositories/opendaylight.release -DarchetypeVersion=1.4.0

Answer 2

From this link, you can use the following command :

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.opendaylight.controller -DarchetypeArtifactId=opendaylight-startup-archetype \
-DarchetypeRepository=http://nexus.opendaylight.org/content/repositories/<Snapshot-Type>/ \
-DarchetypeCatalog=remote -DarchetypeVersion=<Archetype-Version>

while replacing Snapshot-Type and Archetype-Version as follows:

Using this search on ODL's Nexus repository:

• For the Oxygen dev snapshot use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.snapshot and Archetype-Version=1.5.0-SNAPSHOT
• For the Nitrogen SR1 snapshot use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.snapshot and Archetype-Version=1.4.1-SNAPSHOT
• For the Nitrogen release use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.release and Archetype-Version=1.4.0
• For the Carbon use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.release and Archetype-Version=1.3.0-Carbon
• For Boron SR0 use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.release and Archetype-Version=1.2.0-Boron
• For Boron SR1 use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.release and Archetype-Version=1.2.1-Boron-SR1
• For Boron SR2 use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.release and Archetype-Version=1.2.2-Boron-SR2
• For the Boron snapshot use Snapshot-Type=opendaylight.snapshot and Archetype-Version=1.2.2-SNAPSHOT
