Maven WAR Plugin - Modify/Rename files before WAR
I'm looking to rename a couple of files before the actual WAR package
is created. For example, if I have a Javascript file named "my.js", I
want to rename it to "my-20100106.js" then do a search and replace on
all references to "my.js" and have them reference the new file.
I would love to use the maven-antrun-plugin, but it doesn't look like
there is a stage where the war plugin would cede control, or allow
something to pre-process the files that have been copied to the target
directory.
I have also tried copying all source to a target/mybuild directory,
processed them as needed, then use the warSourceDirectory parameter to
reference target/mybuild. However, it appears as if
warSourceDirectory is just the directory that the war plugin copies
src/main/webapp into.
Any ideas or input appreciated.

Hello,
war:war is called during package phase, so at prepare-package phase you have
nothing available. I think the war-plugin should be updated to take that
into account.
A possible workaround is to bind an execution of war:exploded during the
prepare-phase, then you do your stuff with antrun, and finally it is
packaged using war:war.

The prepare-package phase doesn't get you there? This was introduced
around 2.1 or so..

Hi,
You can have a look at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-238.

So you can test it too :-)
