Robert Scholte commented on MINSTALL-94:
----------------------------------------
What I don't like about the {{failIf}} option, is that when an artifact should
have been available the build should break, but by defining this option these
build-failures are ignored. So the best way would be to define it per module,
making it equivalent to the skip-parameter.
AFAIK you need to run {{package}} in order to run {{install}} or {{deploy}},
because that's when the jar/war/ear is bound to the {{MavenProject}}, so the
next goals know what to install or deploy.
If you want to confirm that the whole multimodule can be compiled, {{mvn
compile}} is enough with Maven3. For inner-multimodule dependencies the
classes-directory will be used instead of the jar.
Have you thought about the evil options {{maven.test.skip}} and {{skipTests}}?
> Optional: limit install to packaging x and or make install plugin not fail if
> no artifacts were created for some modules.

> Background: I am working in a huge project with a lot of modules having a lot
> of javascript-optimization and stuff happening in lifecycle-steps after
> compile. This results in bad performance on jenkins. I would like to run
> mvn compile install:install as I only need the jars/libs to be installed and
> not the wars (and more important I do not need them to be built).
> Please introduce Parameters like
> <doNotInstall>war</doNotInstall>

> <failIfNoArtifact>false<...
