For property values -- I setup a .properties file for each of our
environments with the default being 'dev'. So for a default build, the dev
properties are used. but when its time to build for QA or Production, you
add a cmd line argument accordingly: mvn install -DenvType=QA
So I something like this in my top level pom:
<properties>
<envType>dev</envType> <!-- Default Environment value -->
<PomRoot> path to root pom </PomRoot>
....
and then use:
<build>
<filters>
<filter>${PomRoot}/${envType}Config.properties</filter>
</filters>
Then create:
devConfig.properties
qaConfig.properties
... or whatever environment names you need
This lets me use environment specific properties anywhere in the build. It
works quite well.
