Introduction

Oozie maven plugin was created to simplify the creation of packages (tar.gz files) containing workflow definition oozie as well as all other files needed to run a workflow (configuration files, libraries, etc.). In addition, this plugin enables workflow's reusability -- generated packages can be uploaded to a Meven's repository, added as a dependency to other workflows and reused as subworkflows.

The plugin defines a new type of maven's artifact called oozie, but it uses standard build lifecycles.
