Hello, I would like to install jars on the local file system to the local m2 repository, but I'd like to do so from within the pom.xml rather than through mvn install:install-file. I've tried the following:
<plugin> <artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <phase>generate-sources</phase> <configuration> <artifactId>upload</artifactId> <file>WEB-INF/lib/upload.jar</file> <groupId>upload</groupId> <version>1.0</version> </configuration> <goals> <goal>install-file</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin> However, I get an error about writing to the read-only property artifactId, which seems funny given you specify that property when invoking the plugin from the command line. I want to make the maven project as simple as possible for new users to use, and I'd like to avoid intermediate steps prior to mvn test. Is there a way to do this? Thanks, Drew
