need filesystem-level operations in assembly plugin
Hi all - I'm using maven-assembly-plugin to create zip distributions of
our web application. It takes in the Apache Tomcat zip artifact, and the
war artifact for the app, and creates an assembly.
There are a couple of file operations I haven't figured out how to do yet.
For example, Tomcat unzips to a folder called "apache-tomcat-7.0.42",
which I want to rename to just "tomcat". I figured id use the exec plugin
to fork a "rm" command, which I guess will work in theory but seems
shoddy.
Does anyone support having some "swiss army knife" file manipulation
capabilities (at least rename & move) in the assembly plugin?
Best regards,
Richard

If you intend to rebundle Tomcat, use the dependency plugin which will
unpack [1] the zip in target and then you can readd it to your assembly.

First the question is more dedicated to the users list and not the dev
list...
Apart from that i would suggest to take a look at the truezip maven
plugin...
http://mojo.codehaus.org/truezip/truezip-maven-plugin/
I'm not sure if it will fullfil you needs.
Kind regards
