pom-ordering

name: pom-ordering description: Enforce Maven POM dependency ordering rules. This skill should be used when editing pom.xml files.

Ordering Rules

First, group dependencies by scope (compile, runtime, test).

Within each scope, group by groupId in this order:

1. First-party (${project.groupId} or modules within the project)
2. cool.klass
3. io.liftwizard
4. org.eclipse.collections
5. io.dropwizard
6. Other third-party libraries
7. Jakarta

Region Comment Structure

Use region comments for each groupId+scope combination:

• <!--region Project compile dependencies -->
• <!--region Project runtime dependencies -->
• <!--region Klass compile dependencies -->
• <!--region Klass runtime dependencies -->
• <!--region Liftwizard compile dependencies -->
• <!--region Liftwizard runtime dependencies -->
• <!--region Compile dependencies --> (for other dependencies)
• <!--region Runtime dependencies -->
• <!--region Test dependencies -->

Close each region with <!--endregion [name] -->

Within some groups, use nested regions for further organization:

• For io.liftwizard runtime: <!--region Liftwizard bundles --> then <!--region Liftwizard config-->
• For io.dropwizard: core modules first, then specialized modules

Example Structure

Copy<dependencies>

    <!--region Project compile dependencies -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>${project.groupId}</groupId>
        <artifactId>example-services</artifactId>
        <version>${project.version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <!--endregion-->

    <!--region Project runtime dependencies -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>${project.groupId}</groupId>
        <artifactId>example-domain-model</artifactId>
        <version>${project.version}</version>
        <scope>runtime</scope>
    </dependency>
    <!--endregion-->

    <!--region Liftwizard runtime dependencies -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.liftwizard</groupId>
        <artifactId>liftwizard-graphql-reladomo-meta</artifactId>
        <scope>runtime</scope>
    </dependency>

    <!--region Liftwizard bundles -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.liftwizard</groupId>
        <artifactId>liftwizard-bundle-cors</artifactId>
        <scope>runtime</scope>
    </dependency>
    <!--endregion-->

    <!--region Liftwizard config-->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.liftwizard</groupId>
        <artifactId>liftwizard-config-logging-logstash-console</artifactId>
        <scope>runtime</scope>
    </dependency>
    <!--endregion-->

    <!--region Test dependencies -->
