Adam Gabrys created MWRAPPER-57:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Make sure that Maven Wrapper created with distribution
type set to script won't fail on Unix machines
Key: MWRAPPER-57
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWRAPPER-57
Project: Maven Wrapper
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Maven Wrapper Plugin
Reporter: Adam Gabrys
When the Maven {{wrapper:wrapper}} goal is executed with the {{-Dtype=script}}
parameter the {{maven-wrapper.jar}} and {{MavenWrapperDownloader.java}} files
are not created. The problem is that the {{mvnw.cmd}} script guarantees that
the Maven distribution will be downloaded. However, the {{mvnw}} script fails
when the {{curl}} and {{wget}} binaries are not installed. It may cause
potential issues like "works on my PC, but fails on the {{CI}} system". The
documentation doesn't Inform the users about that fact.
I see a few possibilities to handle it:
# remove the {{script}} option, then the people use {{bin}} or {{source}}. The
{{source}} option generates the required {{MavenWrapperDownloader.java}} file
# extend the {{script}} documentation with a warning that it may fail
# generate different scripts depending on the chosen option - when {{script}}
is not
