No way to set the directory mode for the base directory nor any implicitly
created directory for zip assemblies
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-494
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-494
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-5
Environment: Debian GNU/Linux
Reporter: Arnaud de Bossoreille
Attachments: assembly-test.zip
A sample maven project is attached to reproduce everything. I am trying to
generate a zip file with correct permissions (i.e. directories not writable by
everyone which I would say should not be too difficult).
If you run `mvn assembly:assembly` as is, you will have:
drwxrwxrwx ... assembly-test-1.0.0/
drwxrwxrwx ... assembly-test-1.0.0/bin/
-rw-r--r-- ... assembly-test-1.0.0/bin/assembly-test-1.0.0.jar
-rw-r--r-- ... assembly-test-1.0.0/bin/commons-lang-2.4.jar
drwxr-xr-x ... assembly-test-1.0.0/copyofsubdir/
-rw-r--r-- ... assembly-test-1.0.0/copyofsubdir/file
I found no way to set the first two directories permissions. If you add the two
directoryMode tags, you will have:
drwxrwxrwx ... assembly-test-1.0.0/
drwxrwxrwx ... assembly-test-1.0.0/bin/
-rw-r--r-- ... assembly-test-1.0.0/bin/assembly-test-1.0.0.jar
-rw-r--r-- ... assembly-test-1.0.0/bin/commons-lang-2.4.jar
drwxr-xr-x ... assembly-test-1.0.0/copyofsubdir/
-rwxrwxrwx ... assembly-test-1.0.0/copyofsubdir/file*
... which is pretty much what I did NOT expect (a cut'n paste issue in the
code?). If you add both directoryMode and fileMode, you will have the same
results as the first iteration (see above).
Unfortunately I still cannot change the permissions of:
- the base directory (assembly-test-1.0.0)
- any directory that is not present on the file system (bin)
I looked a bit at the code and, as far as I can see, it may be linked to the
plexus zip archiver (although it may not be responsible for the bug) which
automatically adds parent directories but most probably with incorrect
permissions due to bad configuration.
I did not test with other assembly formats.
PS: yes I can do a simple tarball, and I will probably do that while waiting
for a patch. But I think it is important that you are aware of something which
may annoy more than one single user in the world.
Regards.
