Overlay build process

[Bryan Wooten]

Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)

Hopefully this is quick and easy question.

 

I can successfully build a cas.war using the overlay method describe on the wiki page.

 

I now need to add library jar file and a configuration file for my customizations.  I am not sure what I need to do.

 

I assuming I need to add a dependency to my pom.xml file, so this probably a more of maven question?

 

Thanks,

 

Bryan

You need to package your library jar in way that you could include it  
as a Maven dependency.  Although it's easiest to have a Mavenized  
build process, you don't have to.  For any jar, you can do the  
following:

mvn install:install-file \
   -Dfile=path/to/your.jar \
   -DgroupId=your.groupId \
   -DartifactId=your-artifactId \
   -Dversion=version \
   -Dpackaging=jar \
   -DgeneratePom=true

This will install the jar into the local repository in a location for  
which you can add a dependency in your maven war overlay:

     <dependency>
       <groupId>your.groupId</groupId>
       <artifactId>your-artifactId</artifactId>
       <version>version</version>
     </dependency>

Hope that helps,
M

Thanks Marvin, I was wading through the maven docs when your email arrived.

Worked like a charm.

If you guys adopt Maven2 for more than just CAS (which I'm assuming wasn't your choice, its just the fact that CAS uses it), you should consider using a Maven2 Repository Manager such as Nexus [http://nexus.sonatype.org/] which would make these artifacts available to all the developers.

Again, if its just you building CAS, its probably not worth it.  But if you're integrating Maven2 into more of your build/development process, its something to consider.

Cheers,
Scott

Thanks for the tip.

 

We have been using ant (default with Netbeans), but we are also deploying other open source projects and they too are using Maven and Elcipse.  So now I have official approval to install and use it. (Although I had already secretly installed eclipse, hehe).

 

Maintaining the growing list of 3^rd party and open source jar files has been problematic.  So far I really like the Maven Repository and how it handles dependencies.

 

Now if I can just convince the powers that be to dump CVS…

Second the recommendation on installing a local Maven repo – we’ve also used Nexus, though haven’t looked at the others (artifactory, etc.). The repo saved us massive amounts of environment setup headaches when onboarding new devs, or refreshing envs, etc.
