improve site inclusion handling in assemblies
---------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-310
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-310
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2
Environment: Maven 2.0.9, Win XP SP2
Reporter: Michael Osipov
The current state of including the site into an assembly is extremely bad.
There is <includeSiteDirectory> but this suits only for a single module project.
if you do have a multimodule project, try so assemble all subsites into the
parent sie module, you have to struggle with fileset or modulesets or both.
I was able to solve this for me with:
{code}
<moduleSet>
<sources>
<includeModuleDirectory>false</includeModuleDirectory>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<outputDirectory>site/${artifactId}</outputDirectory>
<directory>target/site</directory>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</sources>
</moduleSet>
{code}
This is a better way than using the regular fiesets but still an ugly solution
since I needed several hours to accomplish that the way I wanted.
I am asking for a more profound and easier solution for this. It could be
solved maybe with site:jar and usage of binaries and attachmentClassifer = site
but this still seems quite inferior.
I propose something like this:
{code}
<moduleSet>
<!-- your includes and excludes -->
<sites>true</sites>
</moduleSet>
{code}
The in- and excludes would make it quite flexible. An much more easier approach
without any flexibility would just be introduce a
<includeSubModulesSiteDirectory>.
