I am working on a plugin to create a life cycle plugin to build RPMs. As things stand right now, I have a plugin which defines the RPM life cycle and contains mojos which just generate a warning so I know they were called. I have a project which uses packaging of rpm; running "m2 package" on that project runs the rpm mojos correctly. (YEA!!)
Now comes the hard part: making things work. I would appreciate any pointers, hints, suggestions, examples, etc., on how to do the following: -- I need a complex configuration in the POM to define the files which need to be placed in the RPM; I have a pointer which was posted to the developer's list on Monday on this so I think I have a reasonable start on this -- I would like to be able to have include and exclude lists in the configuration, but I don't want to have to write the code to filter the directory tree; any ideas? -- I need to copy the files into a single directory tree for the rpmbuild command to use to build the RPM file; is it possible to use the plexus archiver to assemble the files into a directory and not build a jar? -- I was thinking of using the ant rpm task to do the actual work of building the RPM file; any examples of having one mojo calling another (assuming that I can access the rpm task from the antrun mojo)? Thanks for the assistance and keep up the good work! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
