             Summary: CLONE - Allow including dependencies of scope:provided
                 Key: MSHADE-181
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHADE-181
             Project: Maven Shade Plugin
          Issue Type: Wish
    Affects Versions: 1.4
            Reporter: Matthias Stevens
            Assignee: Benson Margulies


I have a project for which I'd like to create a shaded jar.
It has a bunch of dependencies in scope:provided, because they really are, in 
the normal use-case of this artifact; it's meant to be deployed as a plugin in 
another app, so, for example, {{myapp-api}} really is "provided".
The project's assembly depends on these deps to be scope:provided (so they're 
not included in the assembly)
If a webapp project is made and depends on this project, the scope:provided 
also helps avoiding duplicated dependencies in some cases.

.. but yes, this project now also needs a standalone/executable jar; some of 
the "provided" dependencies are needed at runtime for this. As far as I can 
tell, the shade plugin currently does not propose any solution for this.

Is there any way this could be considered for the plugin ? Or am I looking at 
it the wrong way ? I suppose I could split my project and have 2 modules, one 
simply being the standalone/shaded version of the other, but it seems overkill, 
since they're really the same source.
