Copy an artifact with its transitive dependencies to a specified
location
I want to copy an artifact with its transitive dependencies to a
specified location. The artifact is not a dependency of the project
the given build step would be part of.
I've tried the "copy" goal of the maven-dependency-plugin [1], but
it doesn't have a "transitive" option. I've also tried the "get"
goal, but its "destination" parameter is deprecated and after all it
doesn't copy the transitive dependencies to that destination.
I've also tried using the "copy-dependencies" goal by first
declaring the needed artifact as runtime dependency to the project,
which I don't really want to, and then specifying "includeGroupIds"
and "includeArtifactIds" parameters, but this is mostly the same as
"copy" specifying all artifacts explicitly, which I don't want to
manually resolve and hard-code.
Is there an easy way to achieve what I'm after?

Seems like, but the transitive dependencies get only downloaded to
the local repository and not copied to the specified `destination`,
as far as I understand and as far as I've observed.

I have a POM where I would like to include the given dependency goal
at certain phase (like `package`), but the dependency I would like
to set up (copying it to a specified location, including its
transitive dependencies) is not a declared dependency in/of the POM.

I'll post back a reference.

Dependency:copy-dependencies inadequately forces you to have a pom which I
understand you don't have.
There's a feature hole here that might be filled. Could you please file a
jira abt this so that it can be fixed?
I suppose we need to figure out where this feature would be located: either
by undeprecating destination param some way , either removing the
requirement for a maven pom for copy-deps or by creating a brand new goal.
Thanks a lot.
