Hi David,
I'm building a JAR file that needs to be packaged with some shell
scripts and some configuration files. The shell scripts will be in a
"bin" directory, the configuration files will be in a "conf"
directory, and I'd like the jar in the "lib" directory with any of the
dependency jars mentioned in the POM.
I've read about Assemblies in Maven -- The Definitive Guide, but I am
a little confused about them. It looks like the Assembly is separate
from the POM. Is this true? If it is separate from the POM, where is
it suppose to live, and how does the POM refer to it?
It's correct that's outside the pom. It lives in src/main/assembly or
something like this...(see
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html)
I figure this is a pretty standard setup for a standalone JAR
application, but I haven't seen any examples of this particular setup.
e.g. the following is a bin.xml assembly discriptor:
May be you have to change the include and the exclude section a bit.
<assembly>
<id>bin</id>
<formats>
<format>tar.gz</format>
<format>zip</format>
</formats>
<baseDirectory>${artifactId}-${version}</baseDirectory>
<includeSiteDirectory>false</includeSiteDirectory>
<dependencySets>
<dependencySet>
<outputDirectory>lib</outputDirectory>
<unpack>false</unpack>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependencySet>
</dependencySets>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<filtered>true</filtered>
<includes>
<include>supose.cmd</include>
</includes>
</fileSet>
<fileSet>
<includes>
<include>search-examples.txt</include>
</includes>
<excludes>
<exclude>*.log</exclude>
<exclude>bin/**</exclude>
<exclude>build/**</exclude>
<exclude>dist/**</exclude>
<exclude>test-output/**</exclude>
<exclude>**/target/**</exclude>
</excludes>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</assembly>
Within the pom you have to put the following: There you can configure
where to put the assembly descriptors...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2-beta-3</version>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/bin.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
That will bin the creation of the packages to the package phase...
