Hi.
I am using the assembly plugin to create several distributables. One of them
is a tar file that includes some output created during the site phase. I
attached the assembly plugin to the site phase and it seemed to work just fine
- in particular it would upload the output assembled file into the repo. This
behavior suddenly seemed to stop working today. I am running the same set of
commands (mvn clean deploy site-deploy) and the site deploy works fine, but my
the assembled target is not getting uploaded (it does exist in the target
directory).
Did something change in the last week? Does anyone have a better
recommendation?
Here is how my pom looked:
.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
<executions>
.
<execution>
<id>tutorial</id>
<phase>site</phase>
<goals>
<goal>assembly</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/assembly/tutorial.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
.
What this used to do is execute the tutorial assembly plugin during the site
phase. Since the assembly would add the assembled file as an artifact, it
would get uploaded into the repo during the site-deploy phase (exactly what I
wanted).
Today I tried this strategy and it does not work.
I temporarily fixed it by changing the phase setting to be package. But this
doesn't really work, in the past I could run:
> mvn clean deploy site-deploy
or:
> mvn clean site-deploy deploy
Or even just:
> mvn clean site-deploy
Now that won't work. To deploy properly, I *must* run site first because the
tutorial build depends on the site having been built into the target.
So now it is imperative to run:
> mvn clean site-deploy deploy
What happened? Anyone have any clues?
Thanks!
