Maven Wagon plugin: Can wagon:upload upload to multiple locations?

Question

I'm looking into the Maven Wagon Plugin to attempt uploading some artifacts to remote UNC Server shares (\\servername\share\directory\to\put\to), and I have gotten it configured to work like so in the POM:

<build>
  <extensions>
    <extension>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
      <artifactId>wagon-file</artifactId>
      <version>1.0-beta-7</version>
    </extension>
  </extensions>
<plugins>
  <plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>wagon-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-beta-3</version>
    <executions>
      <execution>
        <id>upload-jar-to-folder</id>
        <phase>deploy</phase>
        <goals>
          <goal>upload</goal>
        </goals>
      </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
      <fromDir>${project.build.directory}</fromDir>
      <includes>*</includes>
      <url>file://localhost///${servername}/${sharename}</url>
      <toDir>directory/to/put/artifact</toDir>
    </configuration>
  </plugin>
  ...
</build>

This works great for one server when I pass in -Dservername=x -Dsharename=y, but how can I scale it out so I can run a deploy for QA or Prod where I have multiple servers to deploy to?

I've considered (and written) a script to run mvn wagon:upload -Penvironment# multiple times--once for each server--but this seems flawed to me. If I'm shelling out to a script to handle this process, I could just as well script out the entire deploy, too. However, this takes away from the usefulness of Wagon (and Maven)...

Is there a way to run multiple <executions> for one goal? For instance, running multiple profile configured wagon:upload tasks when I just run mvn deploy -Pqa?

Answer 1

If you want to use multiple profiles you could just use: mvn deploy -Denv=qa and trigger some profiles on this property and define the configuration for your severs in the profiles. For this kind of profile activation look at

http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html

and search for

-Denvironment=test

Here's an example POM which does two executions of the maven-antrun-plugin in one build:
