----------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow specifying descriptors via a property
                 Key: MASSEMBLY-896
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-896
             Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: component descriptor
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
            Reporter: Mark Raynsford


It's currently not possible to specify a descriptor via a property. This means 
that it's necessary to configure the assembly plugin within the project's POM. 
This would not normally be a problem, but I'm trying to use the assembly plugin 
to package up an arbitrary project's artifacts (including all of the run-time 
dependencies) without editing the project's POM files.

It would be great if I could do:

{noformat}
$ mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:3.1.1-SNAPSHOT:single 
-Dassembly.descriptors=/tmp/magic-copying-descriptor.xml
{noformat}

Stay tuned for a patch!
