[jira] Created: (MNG-735) Assembly plugin to support 'directory' archive type
Assembly plugin to support 'directory' archive type
---------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-735
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-735
Project: Maven 2
Type: Improvement
Components: maven-plugins
Reporter: Daniel Krisher
Priority: Minor
Add the ability for the assembly plugin to create an assembly on the native file system (i.e. a directory) that is not an archive (zip/jar/tar/etc).
The assembly plugin supports configuration of a directory structure containing pom dependencies and other files based on the specified assembly xml definition. Presently this is used to create various types of archives.
Using the assembly plugin is the only way I have found to create the correct directory structure for an application I am developing however I would like to do this without actually archiving the components (i.e. create the file structure but don't tar/zip/etc it). Building (and compressing) the archive takes a significant amount of time, and more often than not, we don't ever use the archive (except to extract the contents to the filesystem, run the application for testing, and never use it again), at least during development.
I propose adding a 'directory' archive type that simply copies the xml specified files/dependencies to a specified path. This archive type might be specified in the assembly xml file, or alternatively, via a runtime parameter (profile/property) overriding the archive type(s) specified in the assembly xml, for use during development.
I am currently working on a solution as this will be useful for our application that is built with m2, I will submit a patch as soon as I have something workable.

Daniel Krisher commented on MNG-735:
------------------------------------
Actually, a better approach to (2.) would be to apply the artifact/notartifact 'flag' to the entire assembly:
2. Somehow specify that this archive is not an artifact (e.g. an xml declaration associated with assembly.formats), e.g.:
<assembly>
<id>dev</id>
<exportArtifact>false</exportArtifact>
<formats>
<format>directory</format>
</formats>
...
and the appropriate assembly xml could be selected using a profile...
This would have minimal impact on the AssemblyMojo from MNG-483

Attachment: MNG-735-maven-assembly-plugin.patch
Patch to add a 'DirectoryMojo' to the assembly plugin (goal directory).
This creates a directory containing exactly what the assembly archive would contain, only not archived, and not attached to the project as an artifact.
sorry for the delay, work keeping me busy...

[jira] Commented: (MNG-735) Assembly plugin to support 'directory' archive type
Posted by "Daniel Krisher (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-735?page=comments#action_44546 ]
Daniel Krisher commented on MNG-735:
------------------------------------
This patch is somewhat invalidated due to MNG-483 (sorry, I should have checked JIRA more carefully first...):
I wrote this with the intention of using it as a development-time tool (i.e. generate the assembly structure for immediate use, but not installation/deployment), so an assembly of this format would NOT be an artifact. I'm not sure of the best approach to implement this behavior, I can think of two that immediately come to mind:
1. Implement a seperate goal to generate the (un-archived) directory that does not export the assembly as an artifact. This might be good because you would probably not want to generate any other specified assembly archive formats when using the 'directory' type, however this would basically be a one-line change from the AssemblyMojo.java from MNG-483, duplicated code == bad.
2. Somehow specify that this archive is not an artifact (e.g. an xml declaration associated with assembly.formats), e.g.:
<assembly>
<id>bin</id>
<artifactFormats>
<format>tar</format>
</artifactFormats>
<developmentFormats>
<format>directory</format>
</developmentFormats>
...
I am not overly happy with either approach...
Also, MNG-723 was brought to my attention (the assembly:unpack goal), and I just wanted to mention that this is not the same thing as what this patch does. MNG-723 unpacks the pom dependencies to a work directory (jars/zips). This patch copies all of the dependancies (and other files specified in the assembly xml) to a specified directory. Those dependencies can be copied in their native formats, or unpacked, the idea is simply to provide a non-archived version of the assembly, using the same structure that would appear if it were archived. This format should be able to coexist with the unpack goal.
>From Maven-Users:
----------------------------------
Hi Daniel,
FYI, I have assembly patches sitting in Jira, and awaiting publication
to svn:
1) MNG-723: Adds an 'unpack' goal that unpacks all project dependencies
(jars and zips) into the working directory.
2) MNG-483: Attaches all assemblies as project artifacts, so that they
get installed automatically during 'install'. (Your subsequent patch
will have implications here)
-------------------------------------------
Hmm, I would definitely not want an un-archived assembly directory to be installed/deployed to a repository, this was really just intended as a development-time tool. I am still very new to Maven, so I'm not quite sure of the best approach here. I will take another look. Maybe my patch should be implemented as a seperate goal, I don't like 'special cases' where this would be the only assembly archive type that wasn't an artifact...

[jira] Updated: (MNG-735) Assembly plugin to support 'directory' archive type
Posted by "Daniel Krisher (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-735?page=all ]
Daniel Krisher updated MNG-735:
-------------------------------
Attachment: descriptor.mdo.diff
AssemblyMojo.java.diff
Attached new patch for AssemblyMojo.java and descriptor.mdo to deal with the fact that the assembly plugin now supports attaching the generated assembly as an artifact. I suppose that there are actually two changes here:
1. Support for the 'directory' archive type that simply copies all files indicated by the assembly xml to a directory
2. Added boolean flag to assembly xml to disable artifact attachment.
I am not sure that this is the best way to handle this, particularly since this will allow the directory archive type to be exported as an artifact if the flag is ommitted from the assembly xml descriptor which (IMO) is not a good thing...

[jira] Updated: (MNG-735) Assembly plugin to support 'directory' archive type
Posted by "Daniel Krisher (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-735?page=all ]
Daniel Krisher updated MNG-735:
-------------------------------
Attachment: AssemblyMojo.java.diff
DirectoryArchiver.java
I have attached a new implementation of org.codehaus.plexus.archiver.AbstractArchiver: DirectoryArchiver that simply stores the added files in a specified directory. While not really an archive, this was the least intrusive way to support all presently implemented behaviors of the assembly plugin.
Also includes a patch for AssemblyMojo.java to add support for a 'directory' archive type.
