environment variables inside project.properties

[Torsten Curdt <tc...@apache.org>]

I would like to use maven for deploying snapshots
via scp. So've inserted this snippet:

  maven.repo.remote=http://server:9999/repository
  maven.repo.list=my.snapshots
  maven.repo.managesoft.snapshots=scp://server
  maven.repo.managesoft.snapshots.directory=/var/lib/maven-repository/
  maven.repo.managesoft.snapshots.username=tcurdt
  maven.repo.managesoft.snapshots.privatekey=/home/tcurdt/.ssh/id_dsa

All working fine ...but as you can see my userid
and the home directory are hardcoded. Is there any
kind of environment variable substitution mechanism
available inside the project properties?

  maven.repo.managesoft.snapshots.username={user}
  maven.repo.managesoft.snapshots.privatekey={home}/.ssh/id_dsa

...I fear otherwise I would have to pass in the
settings via -D commandline switch.

cheers

Only system properties, but that covers what you need:

${user.home} = $HOME
${user.name} = $USER / $LOGNAME

HTH,
