plamentotev commented on issue #5: MASSEMBLY-617 : add ability to set fileMappers in FileSet in maven as… URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-assembly-plugin/pull/5#issuecomment-473656272 Hi @tcollignon, The problem is not that much with the verbosity of the code, but that is the list of file mappers is practically hard coded. If you want to add another one you'll need to change the `AddDirectoryTask` as well. You can get a `FileMapper` instance from Plexus using its role so you can avoid hard coding the instances. The bigger problem is how to configure them. Unfortunately the interface does not contain means to configure them so the only option is through reflection. You can take a look how `Archiver` is configured - org.apache.maven.plugins.assembly.archive.DefaultAssemblyArchiver#configureArchiver. You need something similar for MDO, but I'm not too familiar with it myself. I guess you can add field of type `DOM` that can contain arbitrary XML so you can use it to configure the `FileMapper` instances.
