Download files from HTTP or FTP ------------------------------- Key: MASSEMBLY-186 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-186 Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin Issue Type: New Feature Environment: All Reporter: Marcel Schoen Priority: Minor
It would be nice if the assembly plugin could also gather files to be packed from external sources over HTTP or FTP. The configuration could look like this: <urlSet> <url>http://files.acme.com/data</url> <excludes> <exclude>**/*.jar</exclude> </excludes> <outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory> </urlSet> <urlSet> <url>ftp://files.acme.com/data</url> <excludes> <exclude>**/*.jar</exclude> </excludes> <outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory> </urlSet> It could support basically every available URL protocoll suitable for file retrieval, like "scp:", "smb:" etc. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
