Re: [m2] profiles / text substitution

[franz see <fr...@gmail.com>]

Good day to you, los,

Do something like this

<project>
  ...

  <build>
    <resources>
      <resource>
        <directory>src/main/config</directory>
        <includes>
          <include>hibernate.cfg.xml</include>
        </includes>
        <filtering>true</filtering>
      </resource>
    </resources>
  </build>

  <profiles>
    <profile>
      <id>dev</id>
      <activation>
        <property>
          <name>env</name>
          <value>dev</value>
        </property>
      </activation>
      <build>
        <filters>
          <filter>src/main/filters/connection-dev.properties</filter>
        </filters>
      </build>
    </profile>
    <profile>
      <id>prod</id>
      <activation>
        <property>
          <name>env</name>
          <value>prod</value>
        </property>
      </activation>
      <build>
        <filters>
          <filter>src/main/filters/connection-prod.properties</filter>
        </filters>
      </build>
    </profile>
  </profiles>

</project>

The filtering is done using filter files ( see [1] ), while the filter file
to be used depends on which profile is activated. You can user property
activation to specify which profile to use ( see [2] ).

This is assuming that your directory structure is something like this...

.
 `-- src
      `-- main
           |-- filters
           |    |-- connection-dev.properties
           |    `-- connection-prod.properties
           `-- config
                `-- hibernate.cfg.xml

Cheers,
Franz
