Is m2e plugin api published anywhere for extension?

259 Views Asked by At

Does the m2e plugin expose its API for other eclipse plugins to extend? I'm writing an eclipse plugin which I want to be able to talk to the m2e to trigger adhoc maven builds, create and save maven jobs thru the existing wizards and so on.

The reason m2e plugin isn't by itself enough for me is that, I want the aforementioned actions to be performed on files of my choice that m2e does not associate itself with, like, XML files, on "running" of which (my plugin will have menus for such needs), I want maven builds to be triggered with options of my choice.

I did see the source code here, but if there's an API that it exposes, it would be easy for me to extend and get things done rather than having to look at the entire m2e code to do even the most basic of things. I didn't see anything of that sort, though, so wanted to be sure if there's even one.
