⚠️ **WARNING** ⚠️
================
This extension has several significant limitations:
- No location tracking support, making error messages less helpful
- Uses an unmaintained library as its core dependency

**Consider using [Mason](https://github.com/maveniverse/mason) instead, which provides a more robust and maintained alternative.**

This project provides a Hocon POM parser extension for Maven 4. It allows POMs to 
be written with the [Hocon](https://github.com/lightbend/config/blob/master/HOCON.md)
syntax, which is a superset of the [JSON](https://json.org/) syntax.

Usage
-----
To use this extension, the following declaration needs to be done in your `${rootDirectory}/.mvn/extensions.xml`:
```
<extensions xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/EXTENSIONS/1.2.0">
    <extension>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.extensions</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-hocon-extension</artifactId>
        <version>@project.version@</version>
    </extension>
</extensions>
```
This allows defining a POM using Hocon syntax:
```
modelVersion = 4.1.0
parent {
    groupId = org.apache.maven.hocon.its
    artifactId = parent
    version = 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT
}
artifactId = test

properties = {
  "my.property" = foo
  pluginVersion = 3.9
}

dependencies = [
    # just add one dummy dependency
    "com.typesafe:config:1.4.2"
]
```
