------------------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
A colleague kindly pointed out to me the assembly plugin, it caters for my
requiremerts.
Apologies if any time was wasted,
> Creation of a maven-zip-plugin
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-2243
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2243
> Project: Maven 2
> Type: New Feature
> Components: Plugin Requests
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Christopher Marsh-Bourdon
> Priority: Minor
>
>
> Before I plough head long into this, I'm not asking for someone else to
> develop a solution to this problem; I am more than happy to spend my time
> producing a solution. I just wanted a feel as to what others think (maybe
> there is already a solution that I have missed).
> Having read Olivier Lamy's issue (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1683),
> I have downloaded and used his submitted plugin. It works great, but it does
> not achieve everything that I need to. The additional functionality I need
> is the ability to include all the dependencies (jars etc) in the zip so that
> the package can act as a semi-automatic installation; unzip and with a single
> command start a JVM running.
> Now the way I see things is that I could take the maven-war-plugin and amend
> it to perform the above. So my questions are these:
> - Is that an agreeable thing to the developers of the maven-war-plugin?
> - Is it a bit of overkill?
> All very newbie questions, but I thought it was best to ask them anyway.
> Does anyone else have any interest in a plugin that can achieve the above,
> and is there any other requirements that you can think of?
