Roy Teeuwen created MNG-5929:
--------------------------------
Summary: Allow mirrors to be set through settings.xml profiles
Key: MNG-5929
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5929
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Settings
Reporter: Roy Teeuwen
Currently I am working for 3 customers with all three their own internal
repository. This means that they use the following mirror settings:
<mirror>
<id>mirror</id>
<url>mirrorUrl</url>
<mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
</mirror>
I have now made three profiles for each company, allowing me to use one
settings file.
I made a bash script where I can set MAVEN_OPTS=-DsettingsProfile=customerName
and then use this variable for the activation of the profiles.
The only pitfall is that I can't do the same for the mirror, seeing as this is
not an allowed element inside the profiles. So it would be very nice if this
could be improved to allow the mirror element in the profiles section.
(Another solution would be to return the -Dapache.user_settings=settingsfile,
but this is sadly dropped from maven 3. Using the -s is not an option seeing as
this won't be used in spawned maven processes from the main maven proces.)
