Its now much easier with m2, with m1 I wrote my own plugin to do it:
In my top level pom (parent pom for all projects) I have:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<filterPropertiesFile>
${resource.filter.file}
</filterPropertiesFile>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
In my settings.xml I have:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>live</id>
<properties>
<resource.filter.file>
${basedir}/conf/${project.artifactId}-live.properties
</resource.filter.file>
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>uat</id>
<properties>
<resource.filter.file>
${basedir}/conf/${project.artifactId}-uat.properties
</resource.filter.file>
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>dev</id>
<properties>
<resource.filter.file>
${basedir}/conf/${project.artifactId}-dev.properties
</resource.filter.file>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
Under the project directory there is a directory called conf, with on
one fileter file per target env e.g thisproject-dev.properties.
Run 2 with the target env profile e.g m2 -P live and all the resource
files will be filtered with the with the correct target values.
Not sure if it is the best way to do it in m2, but is nice and simple.
And easy for each project to use.
