Hi, (...I apologize if this ends up being a duplicate post, but it seems like I screwed up the first one...)
I have a project that I will be distributing as a package of source/poms etc (the 'project' id in assembly). There doesn't seem to be a way to customize the 'project' assembly descriptor to exclude some files I need to from the client pom.xml, so I need to run a custom assembly descriptor but I've run into an issue. This descriptor will be used by many poms, and I do not want to include it in my distribution. I've been following the directions in pages 252-255 of the Sonatype/O'Reilly "Maven: The Definitive guide" first edition paper back (this is maven 2.2) and I now have a custom descriptor installed such that I can use it when it is configured as a maven-assembly-plugin dependency, the appropriate assemblyId is specified as a descriptorRef in that pom and the assembly:single goal is attached to the package phase. How can I call the mvn assembly:assembly goal on a project from the command line, specifying this custom descriptor, without including references to it in a project's pom so that these project's builds will not fail when run by the recipients of my distribution? Generally, how do you use a custom assembly descriptor from the command line without adding it as an assembly plugin dependency to the target project's pom? Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Using-custom-assembly-descriptor-from-the-command-line-tp28273687p28273687.html Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
