mvn install -Ddestdir=...?

Hi,


tools from the non Java world like automake and cmake support a
variable DESTDIR:

make install DESTDIR=...

will not install into e.g. /usr/bin but into $DESTDIR/usr/bin. Is
something similar possible with mvn? I want the artifacts to be
installed into ${destdir}/${settings.localRepository} instead of
${settings.localRepository}.

And BTW, can the localRepository be set from the command line? Something like

mvn <phase> -Dsettings.localRepository=/my/local/repo

does not seem to work...


Cheers,
Torsten

Hi,
No, it's not. That's not how maven works. But you can deploy where you want
if you configure it in the settings.xml or directly in the pom.xml.
See http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-install-plugin/install-mojo.htmlfor
the options of the Install Mojo.

The localRepository has to be set in the global settings.xml or in the
~/.m2/settings.xml file.

Cheers.
