versions:set

Full name:

org.codehaus.mojo:versions-maven-plugin:2.18.0:set

Description:

Sets the current project's version and based on that change propagates that change onto any child modules as necessary.

Attributes:

Requires a Maven project to be executed.
Executes as an aggregator goal.
The goal is thread-safe and supports parallel builds.
Since version: 1.0-beta-1.

Optional Parameters

Name	Type	Since	Description
`<allowSnapshots>`	`boolean`	`1.0-alpha-1`	Whether to allow snapshots when searching for the latest version of an artifact. Default: `false` User Property: `allowSnapshots`
`<artifactId>`	`String`	`1.2`	The non-interpolated artifactId of the dependency/module to be selected for update. If not set, will be equal to the non-interpolated artifactId of the project file. If you wish to update modules of a aggregator regardless of the artifactId, you should set `-DartifactId=''` to ignore the artifactId of the current project. Alternatively, you can use `-DprocessAllModules=true` The goal does not interpolate the properties used in artifactId used in the pom.xml file. The single quotes are only necessary on POSIX-compatible shells (Linux, MacOS, etc.).* User Property: `artifactId`
`<changeRecorderFormat>`	`String`	`2.11`	The format used to record changes. If "none" is specified, no changes are recorded. Default: `none` User Property: `changeRecorderFormat`

The single quotes are only necessary on POSIX-compatible shells (Linux, MacOS, etc.).* User Property: `groupId`
`<ignoredVersions>`	`Set<String>`	`2.13.0`	Allows specifying ignored versions directly as an alternative to providing the ruleSet parameter; mainly created for `-D` property usage. Example: `"1\.0\.1,.+-M.,.-SNAPSHOT"` Currently, this parameter will override the defined `ruleSet`* User Property: `maven.version.ignore`
`<newVersion>`	`String`	`1.0-beta-1`	The new version number to set. User Property: `newVersion`
`<nextSnapshot>`	`boolean`	`2.10`	Whether to add next version number and `-SNAPSHOT` to the existing version.

`<processFromLocalAggregationRoot>`	`boolean`	`2.9`	Whether to start processing at the local aggregation root (which might be a parent module of that module where Maven is executed in, and the version change may affect parent and sibling modules).
