Want to add a classifier/suffix to a war artifact from the POM using a profile

[Blake Martin <bl...@gmail.com>]

The command I'm using to deploy my plugins is: mvn clean deploy

I'm currently generating two war files from the same plugin, but when
they're installed or deployed, they're always named
${artifact}-${version}.war

I'd like to either specify something in a build profile in my POM
(preferred) or something in on the command line (also acceptable) that will
cause my artifacts to be named

${artifact}-${version}-${suffix1}.war
${artifact}-${version}-${suffix2}.war

These wars have to be built one-at-a-time from the command line, I'm limited
to 1 POM file (I just finished merging 5 of them) and I can't modify the POM
between builds.

Is this possible with the deploy phase, or do i have to use the
deploy:deploy-file goal to accomplish this task?

Wendy, thank you very much! Actually, with my current version of the war
plugin and your suggestion, the install and deploy phases perform exactly
what I want them to... I don't need a workaround anymore.

I looked at the results of the install and deploy phases and the artifact is
named with the correct classifier in both cases (after
installation/deployment). Perhaps the maintainers fixed the deploy plugin.

Just for reference, I'm using the latest snapshot of maven-war-plugin.

You can configure the war plugin to add a classifier, with profiles
for the different ones you need, but you will then run into MDEPLOY-45
[1].

  <plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.2</version>
    <configuration>
      <classifier>thesuffix</classifier>
    </configuration>
  </plugin>

You could go ahead and add it to the pom, then continue using your
deploy:deploy-file workaround until the next version of the deploy
plugin is released.  Or you might want to try an internal release of
the deploy plugin with the fix applied.
