Goals

Goals available for this plugin:

Goal	Description
mn:aot-analysis	Invokes the Micronaut AOT optimizer, generating sources/classes and the effective AOT configuration properties file. Refer to the Micronaut AOT documentation for more information. WARNING: this goal is not intended to be executed directly. Instead, enable AOT with the `micronaut.aot.enabled` property, eg: mvn -Dmicronaut.aot.enabled=true package mvn -Dmicronaut.aot.enabled=true mn:run
mn:aot-sample-config	Generates a sample `aot.properties` showcasing all the possible values along with a description.
mn:docker	Allows using a provided Dockerfile. WARNING: this goal is not intended to be executed directly. Instead, specify the packaging type using the `packaging` property, eg: mvn package -Dpackaging=docker
mn:docker-crac	Implementation of the `docker-crac` packaging. WARNING: this goal is not intended to be executed directly. Instead, specify the packaging type using the `packaging` property, eg: mvn package -Dpackaging=docker-crac This is a two stage process. First a docker image is built that runs the application under a CRaC enabled JDK. Then the application is warmed up via a shell script. And then a checkpoint is taken via a signal using jcmd. The second stage takes this checkpoint, and creates the final image containing it plus a run script which passes the correct flags to the CRaC enabled JDK.
mn:docker-native	Implementation of the `docker-native` packaging. WARNING: this goal is not intended to be executed directly. Instead, specify the packaging type using the `packaging` property, eg: mvn package -Dpackaging=docker-native
mn:docker-push	Implementation of the `deploy` lifecycle for pushing Docker images WARNING: this goal is not intended to be executed directly. Instead, Execute the `deploy` phase specifying the packaging type, eg: mvn deploy -Dpackaging=docker-native
mn:dockerfile	Generates a `Dockerfile` depending on the `packaging` and `micronaut.runtime` properties. mvn mn:dockerfile -Dpackaging=docker-native -Dmicronaut.runtime=lambda
mn:generate-import-factory	Import beans from project dependencies by generating factories annotated with `@Import` containing the list of packages.
mn:generate-openapi-client	Generates an OpenAPI client. The sources are generated in the target directory.
mn:generate-openapi-generic	A generic OpenAPI mojo that will be used for configuring custom Micronaut OpenAPI generator extensions.
mn:generate-openapi-server	Generates an OpenAPI server. The sources are generated in the target directory.
mn:graalvm-resources	Deprecated. Please use native:generateResourceConfig and/or native:generateTestResourceConfig instead. Generate GraalVM `resources-config.json` with all the resources included in the application WARNING: this goal is not intended to be executed directly.
mn:help	Display help information on micronaut-maven-plugin. Call `mvn mn:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal=<goal-name>` to display parameter details.
mn:run	Executes a Micronaut application in development mode. It watches for changes in the project tree. If there are changes in the `pom.xml` file, dependencies will be reloaded. If the changes are anywhere underneath `src/main`, it will recompile the project and restart the application. The plugin can handle changes in all the languages supported by Micronaut: Java, Kotlin and Groovy.
mn:start-testresources-service	Starts the Micronaut test resources server.
mn:stop-testresources-service	Stops the Micronaut test resources server.
