This won't work, Maven has a lifecycle that consists of phases when
you execute "mvn init", Maven is going to complain because there is no
"init" phase. What you need to do is configure a goal execution to
execute during one of the phases in the Maven build lifecycle:

You are looking to use the Maven Install plugin, but take a step back
before you decide to do this with Maven. The goal you want to run is
here: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-install-plugin/install-file-mojo.html
- but Maven isn't going to be able to traverse the lib directory and
deploy every single file recursively. It wasn't designed to do
this, and my advice is not to attempt to try to get Maven to do this.
One Maven project, produces one artifact.
Do this using the Maven Ant Tasks, better yet... do this with a Groovy
script that calls out to the Maven Ant Tasks.

Re: How to install jars into local maven repo (with $mvn )
- want to configure init profile in pom.xml
Posted by jvsrvcs <jv...@gmail.com>.
I guess I meant to say I want to run:
$mvn -P init
to run an init profile (I understand about build life cycles and do not want
to write a new one)
but rather want to type $mvn -P init
and have specific already built .jar files in /lib/*.jar to be installed
into my local repo. These jars are not available in any public maven
repository.
thanks

Re: How to install jars into local maven repo (with $mvn )
- want to configure init profile in pom.xml
Posted by jvsrvcs <jv...@gmail.com>.
I'm not sure that the mvn install is what I need. It looks like you have to
run mvn install <options> such that all of the options are on the command
line.
I do not want to write a script, but rather a maven profile that will
execute to install all the jars into the local repository.
I have seen this done before. In other words, I want all the <options>
inside the xml file and not in a bash script, which is what initially the
install plugin only has to offer.
any help or ideas would be appreciated.
thanks
