protoc-jar-maven-plugin

Simple maven plugin to compile .proto files into protobuf code using protoc-jar embedded protoc compiler (multi-platform executable protoc JAR).

Provides some portability across the major platforms (Linux, Mac/OSX, and Windows).

Supports embedded protoc versions 2.4.1, 2.5.0, 2.6.1, 3.11.4, 3.25.1, and any binaries (protoc and protoc plugins) available for download from maven central. Also supports pre-installed protoc binary.

Installation

• Requires Maven 3.8.x to build.

Usage

Sample usage - compile in main cycle into target/generated-sources, add generated sources to project, use default protoc version and default src/main/protobuf source folder:

<plugin>
	<groupId>io.github.blackrock</groupId>
	<artifactId>protoc-maven-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.0.0</version>
	<executions>
		<execution>
			<phase>generate-sources</phase>
			<goals>
				<goal>run</goal>
			</goals>
		</execution>
	</executions>
</plugin>

Sample usage - compile in main cycle into target/generated-sources, add generated sources to project, add all .proto sources to generated jar, include .proto files from direct maven dependencies, include additional imports:

<plugin>
	<groupId>io.github.blackrock</groupId>
	<artifactId>protoc-maven-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.0.0</version>
	<executions>
		<execution>
			<phase>generate-sources</phase>
			<goals>
				<goal>run</goal>
			</goals>
			<configuration>
				<addProtoSources>all</addProtoSources>
				<includeMavenTypes>direct</includeMavenTypes>
				<includeDirectories>
					<include>src/main/more_proto_imports</include>
				</includeDirectories>
				<inputDirectories>
					<include>src/main/protobuf</include>
				</inputDirectories>
			</configuration>
		</execution>
	</executions>
</plugin>

Sample usage - download protoc and plugin binaries from maven repo, multiple output targets (example: gRPC):

<plugin>
	<groupId>io.github.blackrock</groupId>
	<artifactId>protoc-maven-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.0.0</version>
	<executions>
		<execution>
			<phase>generate-sources</phase>
			<goals>
				<goal>run</goal>
			</goals>
			<configuration>
				<protocArtifact>com.google.protobuf:protoc:3.0.0</protocArtifact>
				<inputDirectories>
					<include>src/main/resources</include>
				</inputDirectories>
				<outputTargets>
					<outputTarget>
						<type>java</type>
					</outputTarget>
					<outputTarget>
						<type>grpc-java</type>
						<pluginArtifact>io.grpc:protoc-gen-grpc-java:1.0.1</pluginArtifact>
					</outputTarget>
				</outputTargets>
			</configuration>
		</execution>
	</executions>
</plugin>

Sample usage - javalite, multiple output targets:

<plugin>
	<groupId>io.github.blackrock</groupId>
	<artifactId>protoc-maven-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.0.0</version>
	<executions>
		<execution>
			<phase>generate-sources</phase>
			<goals>
				<goal>run</goal>
			</goals>
			<configuration>
				<inputDirectories>
					<include>src/main/resources</include>
				</inputDirectories>
				<outputTargets>
					<outputTarget>
						<type>java</type>
						<outputOptions>lite</outputOptions>
					</outputTarget>
					<outputTarget>
						<type>python</type>
						<outputOptions>lite</outputOptions>
					</outputTarget>
				</outputTargets>
			</configuration>
		</execution>
	</executions>
</plugin>

Sample usage - compile in test cycle, multiple output targets, don't alter project (<addSources>: none):

<plugin>
	<groupId>io.github.blackrock</groupId>
	<artifactId>protoc-maven-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>2.0.0</version>
	<executions>
		<execution>
			<phase>generate-test-sources</phase>
			<goals>
				<goal>run</goal>
			</goals>
			<configuration>
				<protocVersion>2.4.1</protocVersion>
				<inputDirectories>
					<include>src/test/resources</include>
				</inputDirectories>
				<outputTargets>
					<outputTarget>
						<type>java</type>
						<addSources>none</addSources>
						<outputDirectory>src/test/java</outputDirectory>
					</outputTarget>
					<outputTarget>
						<type>descriptor</type>
						<addSources>none</addSources>
						<outputDirectory>src/test/resources</outputDirectory>
					</outputTarget>
				</outputTargets>
			</configuration>
		</execution>
	</executions>
</plugin>
