Duplicate Metadata

[simasch]

The metadata for Quarkus is duplicated, and this causes to display the Vaadin extension in the Dev UI twice.

Both JARs contain the metadata:

com.vaadin:vaadin-quarkus-extension::jar:24.3.12
com.vaadin:vaadin-quarkus::jar:2.0.1

See quarkusio/quarkus#40701

Hi, thanks for reporting!

Actually, vaadin-quarkus-extension is a repackage of vaadin-quarkus with the addition of common Vaadin dependencies (e.g. vaadin-core) .

I am not sure if we will be able to "hide" one of the extension, but at list the name and description of vaadin-quarkus-extension could be changed to make it more evident that it is targeting Vaadin platform and not only Flow.

I don't understand why those are two extensions. There is only one, according to the directory.

[mcollovati]

In the directory, only vaadin-quarkus-extension is registered.
The artifact depends on vaadin-quarkus and adds some additional dependencies and Quarkus code starts, but it has basically no Java stuff inside.
So a project including vaadin-quarkus-extension is actually using both extensions.

Maybe adding the "unlisted" metadata to one of the quarkus-extension.yml helps. Couldn't find this documented, but quarkus is using it when reusing shared extensions.
An example: https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus/blob/main/extensions/elytron-security-common/runtime/src/main/resources/META-INF/quarkus-extension.yaml
