I want to add some thoughts to Daniel's idea of writing some
Ant script for the build: trunk has been mavenized and split
up into  many modules. The missing  thing is some  tool that
will create a web application  out of a number of blocks. In
a "world of real blocks" that's the job of the deployer that
I wrote.

I will extend the deployer over the weekend. It probably won't
do all the things that we need, but as the interest in getting
it done is high ATM, I hope that sombody else picks up my work
and continues next week.

I worked on  the deployer for monolithic  Cocoon apps. I haven't
finished it yet  but most of the work has  already been done. If
somebody has some  time over the next few  days, don't hesistate
to jump in. Here some pointers to get started:


Do you  mean deploying  Cocoon built with  Maven without  the real
blocks?

No

If this  is the case, how  to test it, is  there an « mvn
something » in some directory?

Or are you talking  about cocoon-deployer-webapp-sample?  This one
seems to be dealing with real blocks.

Thanks in advance for your answer,

The idea is that at packaging time, a M2 plugin scans an artifact (jar) whether it is a Cocoon blocks if it is, some files (xconf, xlog, etc.) are extracted into the right directory. e.g. all .xconf files go to WEB-INF/xconf.

The unit-tests are already working but I need some more time to provide a sample based on cocoon-webapp. This will make it hopefully clearer.
