[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-735?page=all ]
Daniel Krisher updated MNG-735:
-------------------------------
Attachment: descriptor.mdo.diff
AssemblyMojo.java.diff
Attached new patch for AssemblyMojo.java and descriptor.mdo to deal with the
fact that the assembly plugin now supports attaching the generated assembly as
an artifact. I suppose that there are actually two changes here:
1. Support for the 'directory' archive type that simply copies all files
indicated by the assembly xml to a directory
2. Added boolean flag to assembly xml to disable artifact attachment.
I am not sure that this is the best way to handle this, particularly since this
will allow the directory archive type to be exported as an artifact if the flag
is ommitted from the assembly xml descriptor which (IMO) is not a good thing...

> Key: MNG-735

> Add the ability for the assembly plugin to create an assembly on the native
> file system (i.e. a directory) that is not an archive (zip/jar/tar/etc).
> The assembly plugin supports configuration of a directory structure
> containing pom dependencies and other files based on the specified assembly
> xml definition. Presently this is used to create various types of archives.
>
> Using the assembly plugin is the only way I have found to create the correct
> directory structure for an application I am developing however I would like
> to do this without actually archiving the components (i.e. create the file
> structure but don't tar/zip/etc it). Building (and compressing) the archive
> takes a significant amount of time, and more often than not, we don't ever
> use the archive (except to extract the contents to the filesystem, run the
> application for testing, and never use it again), at least during
> development.
> I propose adding a 'directory' archive type that simply copies the xml
> specified files/dependencies to a specified path. This archive type might be
> specified in the assembly xml file, or alternatively, via a runtime
> parameter (profile/property) overriding the archive type(s) specified in the
> assembly xml, for use during development.
> I am currently working on a solution as this will be useful for our
> application that is built with m2, I will submit a patch as soon as I have
> something workable.
