-------------------------------------------------------------

i am presently experiencing some issues with a version of the fat client jar (uber-jar) as published in maven because of the fact that it bundles in dependencies instead of calling them out via standard maven practices.

this can lead to complicated issues such as conflicts between versions of classes in the uber-jar and versions required by peer libraries

for instance, i just ran into an issue around gson and groovy classes bundled in the uber-jar which clash with versions required by some spring framework packages.

uber-jars, while potentially useful for users who don't use package-management tools like maven, gradle, sbt, are troublesome for users who do use these tools because they thwart the tool's capabilities to manage things like version reconciliation. 

i would also suggest that most modern users do use package-management such that uber-jars aren't addressing the needs of the broadest base.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1567
>             Project: Phoenix
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 4.2.0
>            Reporter: Jeffrey Zhong
>            Priority: Major
>
> Phoenix doesn't publish Phoenix Client & Server jars into Maven repository. This make things quite hard for down steam projects/applications to use maven to resolve dependencies.
> I tried to modify the pom.xml under phoenix-assembly while it shows the following. 
> {noformat}
> [INFO] Installing /Users/jzhong/work/phoenix_apache/checkins/phoenix/phoenix-assembly/target/phoenix-4.3.0-SNAPSHOT-client.jar 
> to /Users/jzhong/.m2/repository/org/apache/phoenix/phoenix-assembly/4.3.0-SNAPSHOT/phoenix-assembly-4.3.0-SNAPSHOT-client.jar
> {noformat}
> Basically the jar published to maven repo will become  phoenix-assembly-4.3.0-SNAPSHOT-client.jar or phoenix-assembly-4.3.0-SNAPSHOT-server.jar
> The artifact id "phoenix-assembly" has to be the prefix of the names of jars.
> Therefore, the possible solutions are:
> 1) rename current client & server jar to phoenix-assembly-clinet/server.jar to match the jars published to maven repo.
> 2) rename phoenix-assembly to something more meaningful and rename our client & server jars accordingly
> 3) split phoenix-assembly and move the corresponding artifacts into phoenix-client & phoenix-server folders. Phoenix-assembly will only create tar ball files.
> [~giacomotaylor], [~apurtell] or other maven experts: Any suggestion on this? Thanks.
