maven-assembly-plugin and target directory tree...
I want to create a simple tar file which has two directories, each with
a couple of files.
When the tar file is extracted, the directories needs to be extracted to
the current working directory - not to a subdirectory in the
project-version directory.
I do not have the luxury of being ablt to extract them and the move the
contents.
To complicate things, I am creating two assemblies one I want to have
the default root directory and this other one not
Is this possible using some form of outputDirectory in the assembly.xml?
Thanks
My assembly.xml looks like this at the moment ggg is just a test (kkk
and YYY were other tests!) ;-)
<assembly>
<id>config-bin</id>
<!-- <includeBaseDirectory>true</includeBaseDirectory> -->
<!-- <archiveBaseDirectory>kkk</archiveBaseDirectory> -->
<!-- <workDirectory>YYY</workDirectory> -->
<formats>
<format>tar.gz</format>
</formats>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<directory>src/main/resources/config</directory>
<lineEnding>unix</lineEnding>
<outputDirectory>ggg</outputDirectory>
<includes>
<include>env/*.props</include>
<include>vault/*.props</include>
</includes>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</assembly>

RE: maven-assembly-plugin and target directory tree...
Posted by "Harris, Philip" <Ph...@dkib.com>.
In the end, I suggested that the outputDirectory for the only fileSet
was ".." When it came to untarring it on the destination host tar
ignored the bit of the directory tree which would have been empty
(hoorah!)
I think you can gauge a lot about my frustration from the pom level code
in the assembly :-)
<assembly>
<id>config-bin</id>
<formats>
<format>tar.gz</format>
</formats>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<directory>src/main/resources/config</directory>
<lineEnding>unix</lineEnding>
<outputDirectory>..</outputDirectory>
<includes>
<include>env/*.props</include>
<include>vault/*.props</include>
</includes>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</assembly>
Thanks!

Well, unfortunately I think you're going to wind up with one of two
possibilities:
1. you *might* be able to setup filtering for your assembly descriptor, then
flip true/false in the <includeBaseDirectory/> element...though this may
include your assembly descriptor in the resulting jar (not sure on that, I'd
have to play with it a little).
2. you may just want to create two assembly descriptors, with different
values for <includeBaseDirectory/>, then use a <component/> reference for
common elements. This might be simplest to understand 2 years from now when
you come back to it...
I'd recommend taking a close look at option #2, with the help of these
references:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly.html
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/component.html
(BTW, it looks like you've tried to put POM configuration of the assembly
plugin into your assembly descriptor, with the <archiveBaseDirectory/>
element...might take a closer look at the *Goals* link on the
maven-assembly-plugin webpages...)
