W want my maven project to produce three artifacts with different classifiers at once. I know that I can produce it with modules etc. This is actually a resources project that I want to produce configuration for DEV, STAGE and PROD environment.
What I want to have is to run mvn:install
once and have my.group:resources:1.0:dev
, my.group:resources:1.0:stage
and my.group:resources:1.0:prod
in my repo.
This can be done without profiles if you specify multiple plugin executions and resource filtering.
Create a properties file for each version in ${basedir}/src/main/filters
(e.g. prod.properties, dev.properties) holding appropriate values for each environment.
Turn on filtering for your resources:
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
<filtering>true</filtering>
</resource>
</resources>
Now add the resource plugin executions. Note the different filter file and output directory.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-resources</id>
<phase>process-resources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>resources</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.outputDirectory}/dev</outputDirectory>
<filters>
<filter>${basedir}/src/main/filters/dev.properties</filter>
</filters>
</configuration>
</execution>
<execution>
<id>prod</id>
<phase>process-resources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>resources</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.outputDirectory}/prod</outputDirectory>
<filters>
<filter>${basedir}/src/main/filters/prod.properties</filter>
</filters>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Finally, the jar plugin; note classifier and input directory:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-jar</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>jar</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<classifier>dev</classifier>
<classesDirectory>${project.build.outputDirectory}/dev</classesDirectory>
</configuration>
</execution>
<execution>
<id>jar-prod</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>jar</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<classifier>prod</classifier>
<classesDirectory>${project.build.outputDirectory}/prod</classesDirectory>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Running mvn clean install
should produce the properly filtered resources in artifacts with dev
and prod
classifiers like you want.
In the example, I used execution IDs of default-resources
and default-jar
for the dev versions. Without this you would also get an unclassified jar artifact when you build.
Just an FYI - put the version number in there to make sure you have the version supporting custom filters. In maven 3 I set mine up like this for example. Without version it didn't work.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
...
</plugin>
