Hi folks. Could anyone tell me if a Maven plugin is available now for Liquibase 2? &nbsp;My project is currently working with 1.9.5, and we’d like to go to 2.5.

If so, how could I get my hands on it?

Thanks!

Note that 1.9.5 has used a liqubase-plugin artifact.

Thanks, Oleg. I should have said I’m a Liquibase/Maven newbie. Could you tell me where I could get the 2.0-rc6-SNAPSHOT? I have the 2.0-rc5 jar (core), but I still do not have the associated plugin itself.

this is a current trunk version, have a look at [http://liquibase.org/forum/index.php?topic=672.0](http://liquibase.org/forum/index.php?topic=672.0) how build it from sources  
If you do not want build it so, change in properties

 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;2.0-rc5

I have forgot to say one note.  
The liquibases files should be placed in the output target directory, usually target. This is required, because of Maven classloader features.  
To this i’m using a maven facility of resources.  
This is a full source of my mssql-updater pom

How it does work? Maven have predefined stages - phases in maven terminology.  
We are interested in resources-process, compile and package.

I’m saving all liquibase-related files to the src/main/liquibase directory, that in phase resources-process are copied into ${project.build.outputDirectory}. Note resources could be filtered or not.

At the compile phase we manage call the liquibase in the updateSQL mode. Output file with sql you could found in the target/liquibase/migrate.sql

mvn compile
Finally at the package phase liquibase update the database.
mvn package

Let me know if something is not clear.

I was able to work through the instructions from your previous post (with some help from my lead). We have both core and plugin built here now, and we’re up and running. Thank you so much for your help.
