POM_REMOVE_PARENT(7)

πŸ’– POM_REMOVE_PARENT(7) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to pom_remove_parent, one of the iconic little macros from Java Packages Tools (that's the manual section 7, iykyk). she's here to yeet a parent POM reference clean out of your POM file and honestly? she ate. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

pom_remove_parent β€” remove parent POM reference from POM file


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

%pom_remove_parent [POM-location]...

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So this macro patches the POM file(s) you point her at and removes the reference to the parent POM. that's it. that's the whole job. and she does it flawlessly every time πŸ’…

Now let's talk about POM location, because she's flexible like that:

  • you can hand her a full path to the POM file itself, or
  • you can hand her a path to the directory that contains pom.xml β€” she'll find it, no worries 🫢

And if you don't give her any POM location at all? she just uses pom.xml from the current working directory. lowkey convenient.

Oh and btw, you can specify more than one file location and she'll process all of them. multi-tasking queen πŸ‘‘


πŸ”₯ EXAMPLES πŸ”₯

%pom_remove_parent target/location

this call removes the parent POM reference from target/location/pom.xml. slay. that's literally it, she understood the assignment πŸ’…
