Hi,
Is it possible to specify a type pattern that retrieves all artifacts
**except** for a particular kind?
I simply want to apply different patterns to my configuration files
(to drop [-revisions]) versus every other types of artifacts. For
now, I can retrieve jars, sources, and other types that I know of in
advance, but this won't scale as I'll have to list all possible types
and have to know the universe of types beforehand.
For project-wide configuration files:
<ivy:retrieve
pattern="${lib.dir}/[organization]/[module]-[revision]/[type]s/[artifact](-[classifier]).[ext]"
type="config,configDeploy,configTest" />
For everything else:
<ivy:retrieve
pattern="${lib.dir}/[organisation]/[module]/[module]-[revision]/[type]s/[artifact]-[revision](-[classifier]).[ext]"
type="-config,-configDeploy,-configTest" />
if "-config,-configDeploy,-configTest" would simply mean, grab
everything EXCEPT config,configDeploy, and configTest, it would be
perfect.
I did some searching and found previous discussions regarding
extending the filtering capabilities which resulted in the following
tickets:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-439 -> "Add more filters to
the Ant tasks"
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-324 -> "Conditional patterns"
but I'm not sure if these features made it to the new version of Ivy
or if they were covered by newer features.
thanks,
Sam
