Adding a module descriptor to the project JAR

To add a module descriptor to the JAR produced by the current Maven project, configure the add-module-info goal as follows:

...
<plugin>
    <groupId>org.moditect</groupId>
    <artifactId>moditect-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0.Alpha2</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <id>add-module-infos</id>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>add-module-info</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
                <module>
                    <moduleInfo>
                        <name>com.example</name>
                        <exports>
                            !com.example.internal.*;
                            *;
                        </exports>
                    </moduleInfo>
                </module>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>
...

The following configuration options exist for the <module> configuration element:

• moduleInfoSource: Inline representation of a module-info.java descriptor (optional; either this or moduleInfoFile or moduleInfo must be given)
• moduleInfoFile: Path to a module-info.java descriptor (optional; either this or moduleInfoSource or moduleInfo must be given)
• moduleInfo: A moduleInfo configuration as used with the generate-module-info goal (optional; either this or moduleInfoSource or moduleInfoFile must be given)
• mainClass: The fully-qualified name of the main class to be added to the module descriptor (optional)

Note that moduleInfoSource and moduleInfoFile can be used on Java 8, allowing to add a Java 9 module descriptor to your JAR also if you did not move to Java 9 for your own build yet. moduleInfo can only be used on Java 9 or later.
