54 <h1>Hibernate 4 Maven Plugin - Skipping Execution</h1>
55 <p>In most use-cases, the hibernate4-maven-plugin is used to create a test-database automatically. In this use-cases, it is very likely, that it will result in mistakes/errors, if the goal is executed, when the tests are skipped. For example, one might manually overwrite the database-url with the url of the production-database, in order to run other tests, like starting a local webserver with the <a class="externalLink" href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Feature/Jetty_Maven_Plugin">jetty-maven-plugin</a>. If the export-goal would be executed in such a scenario, it might erase the hole production-database, which is not very desireable.</p>
56 <p>Because of this, the configuration-parameter <tt>skip</tt> defaults to the value of the proptery <tt>maven.test.skip</tt>. This way, the execution of the hibernate4-maven-plugin is skipped automatically, when the tests are skipped. Think of it as a build-in security-belt.</p>
57 <p>If you do not like that, because you need the plugin to always execute the export-goal, even if the tests are skipped you can configure that explicitly, by setting the configuration-parameter <tt>skip</tt> to false:</p>
60 <groupId>de.juplo</groupId>
61 <artifactId>hibernate4-maven-plugin</artifactId>
64 <skip>false</skip>
65 </configuration>
66 </plugin></pre></div>
67 <p>Or, if you want the export-goal to be executed by default and to be skipped if you say so, you can bind the value of the configuration-parameter <tt>skip</tt> to a custom property. For example:</p>
70 <groupId>de.juplo</groupId>
71 <artifactId>hibernate4-maven-plugin</artifactId>
74 <skip>${foo.bar}</skip>
75 </configuration>
76 </plugin></pre></div>
77 <p>This way, the export-goal would be skipped, if you set the property <tt>foo.bar</tt> to <tt>true</tt>. For example, if you specify <tt>-Dfoo.bar=true</tt> on the command-line.</p>
