[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-86?page=all ]
Simone Gianni updated MWAR-86:
------------------------------
Attachment: maven-war-plugin1.diff
I parametrized the WarMojo with two booleans, one to create the folder
structure, the other one to create the war file.
Then I created a new mojo, WarOnlyMojo, goal war-package, that subclasses
WarMojo setting only the boolean needed to produce the war file.
This way, it's possible to act this way in a project pom.xml :
<!-- Default execution of war plugin, without war file generation -->
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version>
<configuration>
<doCreateWarFile>false</doCreateWarFile>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<!-- Execute any other plugin, binding it to the package phase -->
<plugin>
<groupId>xpatch</groupId>
<artifactId>xpatch-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>xpatch</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<!-- Execute the war-package goal and create the war file -->
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>war-package</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Unfortunately I found no way to "merge" the two war plugin declarations in a
single one, since :
- Declaring two executions makes the plugin execute 3 time, once with the
default way, and the other two with the customized configuration.
- Declaring the configuration together with the executions, makes the plugin
ignore the default configuration and execute once as normal, and then with the
war-package goal.
Anyway with this it's already possible to change the cocoon-deployer-plugin so
that it does not extend the war mojo, does not suffer from the NPE caused more
or less from what's described here
http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@maven.apache.org/msg60770.html, and makes it
possible to stack multiple plugins to work on a war before it's compressed to a
single file.

> It would be nice to have a separate goal that zips the WAR file. This way it
> will be possible to write (and use) plugins that manipulates the WAR folder
> before the WAR file is built (like applying patches, reorganizing site
> structure and similar stuff).
> Also, there are some plugins (like the cocoon deploy plugin) that actually
> extend the war plugin to operate "in the middle". This could be avoided
> (IIUC) adding these separate goal in the WAR plugin.
> It should be quite trivial to do, I volunteer for trying.
