[MWRAPPER-70] Don't require a pom.xml #251

Should be ok.
Amit Misra commented
Please correct me if I am wrong the requirement of a pom.xml being present in the current working directory comes from the underlying
mvncommand.Having said that, I think this could be done in two steps -
-
Find the
pom.xmlfile to be used first. Search for parent folders formvnwexecutable something similar to whatgngandgwdoes - https://github.com/gdubw/gng) and then go ahead and execute the command with-foption, assuming thepom.xmlis not named differently. In the latter case, the user anyways has to tellmvnwthe file to use so we should be good. -
Use a temporary
pom.xmlfile. In case the last step is not able to find a validpom.xmlfile, create a temporarypom.xmlfile in the current directory, execute the command and then clean up the temporary file.
Open to other suggestions if this approach seems too naive or overly complicated.

What is the use case? What would this temporary pom enable doing?
Amit Misra commented
Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen from what I understood from the original issue, mvnw command fails if you run inside a directory that does not have a pom.xml file with the following error message - {}Goal requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory{}.
Having a temporary pom.xml (generated on the fly) could help in running the mvnw command

Occasionally, it would come in handy if you could run the wrapper goal without a pom.xml to prepare a folder from scratch.
3.1.1 fails with: "Goal requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory"
Affects: 3.1.1
