[M2] Invoke install:install-file from the pom.xml

[Drew Hite <hi...@gmail.com>]

Hello,
I would like to install jars on the local file system to the local m2
repository, but I'd like to do so from within the pom.xml rather than
through mvn install:install-file. I've tried the following:

<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<configuration>
<artifactId>upload</artifactId>
<file>WEB-INF/lib/upload.jar</file>
<groupId>upload</groupId>
<version>1.0</version>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>install-file</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>

However, I get an error about writing to the read-only property artifactId,
which seems funny given you specify that property when invoking the plugin
from the command line. I want to make the maven project as simple as
possible for new users to use, and I'd like to avoid intermediate steps
prior to mvn test. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,
Drew

This seems like a bug in the metadata - please file this one in JIRA.
