[jira] [Updated] (MNG-7074) Environment Variable defaulting

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7074?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Loïc Hermann updated MNG-7074:
------------------------------
    Description: 
It's often required to use specific environnement variables in CI environnent.

If the environment variable is not defined on the developper environment the build will fail.

{{For now defaulting those environment variable can only be done by defining profiles which is really verbose.}}

{{it would be easier if we can either}}

{{add a default value where the variable is used:}}

```

{{$\{env.VARIABLE_NAME:defaultValue}}}

```

or have a section to define default values in the pom:

```

<environment>

   <{{VARIABLE_NAME}}>defaultValue</{{VARIABLE_NAME}}>

<environment/>

```
