John Casey closed MASSEMBLY-136.
--------------------------------
Assignee: John Casey
Resolution: Won't Fix
Fix Version/s: 2.2-beta-2
This use case isn't really a part of the assembly plugin's goals. Maybe you'd
be better off with a custom plugin to copy files from dependencies, etc. into
your tests...
Actually, such a plugin might be really useful. I'm not sure whether the
maven-remote-resources-plugin could be made to accomplish this (dependencies
would be remote resources for your tests, after all), but something like that
would be a nice addition to the mojo.codehaus.org suite of plugins, I'd imagine.

> Can you please make the assembly parameter "outputDirectory" support absolute
> paths, just like "directory" in fileSets. Currently all paths are relative to
> the root directory of the assembly, whether or not you specify the path
> separator in the beginning or not. I see no reason why it should only
> support relative paths.
> I'm using assembly:directory to deploy some resources for my unit/integration
> tests that are normally available on a production environment. I realize I'm
> using the plugin "the wrong way", but the directory goal and format isn't
> suitable for deploying to the repository anyways.
> Also, either I don't know how to use appendAssemblyId correctly or it doesn't
> work for directory format.
