#Maven Dart Plugin

The Dart Maven Plugin provides integration of Dart into a maven build process.

##Goals Overview

The Dart Plugin has one goal (besides the help goal). It is already bound to his proper phase within the Maven Lifecycle (compile) and is therefore, automatically executed during his respective phase.

• dart:dart2js Goal which compile dart files to javascript.
• dart:help Display help information on maven-dart-plugin. Call mvn dart:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal= to display parameter details.

##Usage

The dart2js goal uses the dart2js compiler from the dart project to compile any dart file to javascript (js file) and a map.js file. It will download the latest dart SDK into the dartOutputDirectory [${project.build.directory}/dependency/dart] for the used OS and architecture. By default it will look for dart files in src/main/dart and will place the javascript files under ${project.build.directory}/dart.
