Sebastian Geiger updated MASSEMBLY-824:
---------------------------------------
Description:
I recently had a usecase where I wanted to rename an artifact locally in the
target/ folder. I configured the maven-assembly-plugin with the following
options:
{code}
<appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
<finalName>helper-${project.version}</finalName>
{code}
As expected the resulting name was `helper-5.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar`.
Next when I built the project I noticed warnings about a conflict with the
default artifact for the project.
{quote}
[WARNING] Configuration options: 'appendAssemblyId' is set to false, and
'classifier' is missing. Instead of attaching the assembly file:
[...]/target/helper-5.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar, it will become the file for main
project artifact.
NOTE: If multiple descriptors or descriptor-formats are provided for this
project, the value of this file will be non-deterministic!
[WARNING] Replacing pre-existing project main-artifact file:
[...]/target/my.module-5.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar with assembly file:
[...]/target/helper-5.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
{quote}
Irritated by these warnings I asked about this on
[StackOverflow|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38482839/maven-assembly-plugin-how-to-use-appendassemblyid/38484021#38484021]
and received the following explanation:
Essentially during installation the standard maven coordinates (G-A-V-C) are
still used independent of the {{finalName}} used to for the artifact, since
this only affects the local name inside the {{target}} folder. Now, when the
{{appendAssemblyId}} is set to {{false}} the classifier will be dropped not
only from the local name, but also from the artifact's name used during
installation and there will be a clash with the default artifact name if the
project's packaging is set to jar.
Currently there seem to be only two solutions:
# Do not set the {{appendAssemblyId}} option to {{false}}, which means that the
local name used inside the target folder will still get the assemblyId appended
(e.g. <finalName>-jar-with-dependencies.jar).
# Alternatively, set the option {{attach}} to {{false}}, this will avoid the
above mentioned warning but also means that the artifact will no longer be
installed.
Of course I could just ignore he warning, but the after all the warning has a
reason and I would much fix that then ignore the warning.
h1. Suggested solutions:
IMHO there are several solutions to resolve this:
# Omit the assemblyId on the local name by default if {{finalName}} is used.
Additionally change the semantics of the {{appendAssemblyId}} option to only
affect the installed artifact's name.
# Add an additional option to control if the assemblyId is appended to the
local file name.
In any case, also if none of the suggested options are feasible I suggest to
document this better.
* Make it clear in the {{appendAssemblyId}} option, that this affects both the
local and the installed artifact's file name. Also clarify the warning that
appears when this option is set to false. Also, maybe suggest to set {{attach}}
to {{false}} if a conflict is detected?
* Make it clear in the {{finalName}} option, that this only affects the local
file name and NOT the installed artifact's file name.
Thank your time and attention.
