I've tried the assembly task.
It will create the files under target/<finalName>-<id> from the assembly
configuration in pom.xml
Which means I have to manually move the files out of this directory into
target/site
I have tried fiddling with the values in finalName and id to get it into
target/site but nothing has worked.
I also see what you mean here: I tried myself, and you don't seem to be
able to control the output directory; unless you try something which I
would not use in production, and specify the outputDirectory in the
custom assembly descriptor as something like ../../ .
Sounds like a "copy" plugin is in order?
I do think this is needed...
Unless there is some way to assign an "id" to a resource and then refer
to that from a configuration or execution and instigate a filtered copy
of the identified resources, but directed into either a specified output
directory or to the output directory of the running plugin...
I have written a copy files Mojo, [...]
Thanks for the info. Once I get a chance to extricate it from my
existing plugin and meet the Mojo project guidelines, I will submit
the JIRA issue. Hopefully, will get it done by this weekend.
I would be interested in hearing about it if it gets deployed: I guess
I will know by checking the repositories.
