org.openrewrite.maven.UpgradePluginVersion

Upgrade the version of a plugin using Node Semver advanced range selectors, allowing more precise control over version updates to patch or minor releases.

Recipe source

GitHub, Issue Tracker, Maven Central

groupId: org.openrewrite
artifactId: rewrite-maven
version: 8.40.2

Options

Type	Name	Description	Example
`String`	groupId	The first part of a dependency coordinate 'org.openrewrite.maven:rewrite-maven-plugin:VERSION'. Supports globs.	`org.openrewrite.maven`
`String`	artifactId	The second part of a dependency coordinate 'org.openrewrite.maven:rewrite-maven-plugin:VERSION'. Supports globs.	`rewrite-maven-plugin`
`String`	newVersion	An exact version number or node-style semver selector used to select the version number. You can also use `latest.release` for the latest available version and `latest.patch` if the current version is a valid semantic version. For more details, you can look at the documentation page of version selectors	`29.X`
`String`	versionPattern	Optional. Allows version selection to be extended beyond the original Node Semver semantics. So for example,Setting 'version' to "25-29" can be paired with a metadata pattern of "-jre" to select Guava 29.0-jre	`-jre`
`Boolean`	trustParent	Optional. Even if the parent suggests a version that is older than what we are trying to upgrade to, trust it anyway. Useful when you want to wait for the parent to catch up before upgrading. The parent is not trusted by default.
`Boolean`	addVersionIfMissing	Optional. If the plugin is missing a version, add the latest release. Defaults to false.

Usage

This recipe has required configuration parameters. Recipes with required configuration parameters cannot be activated directly. To activate this recipe you must create a new recipe which fills in the required parameters. In your rewrite.yml create a new recipe with a unique name. For example: com.yourorg.UpgradePluginVersionExample. Here's how you can define and customize such a recipe within your rewrite.yml:

rewrite.yml
---
type: specs.openrewrite.org/v1beta/recipe
name: com.yourorg.UpgradePluginVersionExample
displayName: Upgrade Maven plugin version example
recipeList:
  - org.openrewrite.maven.UpgradePluginVersion:
      groupId: org.openrewrite.maven
      artifactId: rewrite-maven-plugin
      newVersion: 29.X
      versionPattern: '-jre'

Now that com.yourorg.UpgradePluginVersionExample has been defined, activate it in your build file:

Maven
Moderne CLI

Add the following to your pom.xml file:

pom.xml
<project>
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.openrewrite.maven</groupId>
        <artifactId>rewrite-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>5.45.0</version>
        <configuration>
          <exportDatatables>true</exportDatatables>
          <activeRecipes>
            <recipe>com.yourorg.UpgradePluginVersionExample</recipe>
          </activeRecipes>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>

Run mvn rewrite:run to run the recipe.

You will need to have configured the Moderne CLI on your machine before you can run the following command.

shell
mod run . --recipe UpgradePluginVersionExample
