You've reached the Sourcesense ( http://www.sourcesense.com ) Maven Alfresco AMP archetype home page (version: 1.0.4)
This archetype aims to provide a standardized approach to development, release and deployment of Alfresco AMPs (as opposed to Alfresco extensions, released as a different artifact ). Using standard m2 lifecycle commands (mvn compile package deploy) and generally available plugins (cargo, release, assembly) we are able to cover a very high percentage of Alfresco lifecycle common use cases. You are able within minutes to have a compatible AMP module built and its lifecycle supported by Maven, in a fully transparent way also with open source available AMPs.
For a quick start you can a maven alfresco AMP project created by just running (maven 2.0.6+ required) :
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=http://repository.sourcesense.com/maven2/archetype-catalog.xml
