Open Rewrite :Refactoring with declarative YAML recipes

Question

I have been following the instructions Refactoring with declarative YAML recipes. In my case project "A" is a multi-module maven build. I added a module "functional" that has an Example.yml under src/main/resources/META-INF/rewrite. I see Example.yml in the jar file.

My project "B" is a normal maven build (not multi module). It has the rewrite plugin in the pom and with an active recipe which is defined in "A"s Example.yml.

When I run it get the error:

    at org.openrewrite.config.Environment.activateRecipes (Environment.java:123)
    at org.openrewrite.maven.AbstractRewriteMojo.listResults (AbstractRewriteMojo.java:240)
    at org.openrewrite.maven.AbstractRewriteRunMojo.execute (AbstractRewriteRunMojo.java:54)
    at org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultBuildPluginManager.executeMojo (DefaultBuildPluginManager.java:137)

When I run: rewrite:discover it does not list my recipe.

In a multiple module maven build where should the yml be located? Any suggestions for debugging this? If I run rewrite:discover

Here is the rewrite plugin I am using in project B

   <plugin>
       <groupId>org.openrewrite.maven</groupId>
       <artifactId>rewrite-maven-plugin</artifactId>
       <version>4.44.0</version>
       <configuration>
           <activeRecipes>
               <recipe>xxxxx.functional.Example</recipe>
           </activeRecipes>
       </configuration>
   </plugin>

As pointed out by Tim it looks like the problem is that your plugin configuration doesn't declare a dependency on the functional artifact containing your recipes. Your plugin should look something like this:

   <plugin>
       <groupId>org.openrewrite.maven</groupId>
       <artifactId>rewrite-maven-plugin</artifactId>
       <version>4.44.0</version>
       <configuration>
           <activeRecipes>
               <recipe>xxxxx.functional.Example</recipe>
           </activeRecipes>
       </configuration>
       <dependencies>
           <dependency>
               <groupId>com.yourorg.recipes</groupId>
               <artifactId>functional</artifactId>
               <version>1.1.0</version>
           </dependency>
       </dependencies>
   </plugin>
