[FIXED] Determine in a Maven Plugin whether Batch mode is active

Issue

When I write a Mojo, how can I determine whether I am currently in Batch Mode (i.e. the -B parameter was given on command line)?

Solution

The simplest way would be to put this:

  @Parameter(defaultValue = "${session}", required = true, readonly = true)
  private MavenSession session;

If you have defined that in your mojo definition you can within your execute method going like this:

  if (session.getRequest().isInteractiveMode()) {
    //..
  } else {
    //..
  }

This will give you the information about using --batch-mode.
