[jira] [Closed] (MNG-6959) Add "maven.jar.skip" property

["Robert Scholte (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6959?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Robert Scholte closed MNG-6959.
-------------------------------
      Assignee: Robert Scholte
    Resolution: Won't Fix

The ultimate goal of every build is the creation of an artifact, so it doesn't make sense to skip the creating of a jar.
Any skip-argument is a workaround for a different problem, so you should create a ticket that would make the need of this skip obsolete.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6959
>             Project: Maven
>          Issue Type: Improvement

>            Priority: Minor
>
> The following properties are available from various plugins:
>  * maven.test.skip
>  * maven.install.skip
>  * maven.deploy.skip
> For consistency, please can we also have maven.jar.skip?
> There is a skipIfEmpty parameter but there is no way to set it via a property.
> This is helpful in keeping a standard CI build script across multiple projects e.g. running mvn install, and keeping build specific various in the pom.xml.
> Current workaround is to configure the jar plugin with a phase of none but this is less consistent with the method of skipping other default plugins.
