i used selenium-mave-plugin for integration test, which require the war file named: project.artifactId-version(say: myproj-0.1-SNAPSHOT.war) while the default war created by maven-war-plugin is project.artifactId.war(say myproj-SNAPSHOT.war).
in order to let selenium plugin, i override the maven-war-plugin in that selenium profile as:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1-beta-1</version>
<configuration>
<warName>${project.artifactId}-${project.version}</warName>
</configuration>
</plugin>
now when i build the project, it failed at rpm:rpm, complaining:
source location ..../myProj.war does not exist
my question is if it's possible to create 2 war files: myProj.war and myProj-0.1-SNAPSHOT.war so both rpm and selenium plugins are happy? Thanks
For rpm plugin, please make sure you use the location directive. If you need further help, please post your full pom.xml.
As for selenium, it doesn't really need to know where your .war file resides. Only the web application server needs to know. Sadly, you didn't provide information in which phase of maven the "does not exist" error occured. So I can only guess it's while starting jetty, tomcat or another web application server.
You should run your full build (including tests) with: mvn clean verify integration-test rpm:prm.

I did download the project from github without any problem, i provided th maven commands mvn clean install and the project build successfully but when it comes to run the tests i get the following error. Any hints? I'am providing my pom.xml file, i tried all the suggestions but nothing.
Does your pom.xml contains the plugin surefire tag ? If thats missing then maven wont download this plugin at runtime and hence the error. Also if its there but maven cant download then may be you have to allow internet connectivity or copy the jars manually inside the .m2 directory on the Jenkins/Node server machine.
<plugin>

I use tomcat7 with the tomcat-maven plugin. I am able to make it hotswap my jsp but it only work if I modify it directly in the target. How can I make tomcat also look for changes in my sources directory?
pom.xml
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<configuration>
<serverXml>${project.build.directory}/config/tomcat-config/${usingDb}/server.xml</serverXml>
<tomcatUsers>${project.build.directory}/config/tomcat-config/tomcat-users.xml</tomcatUsers>
<configurationDir>${project.build.directory}/config/tomcat-config</configurationDir>
<additionalClassesDirs>
<classesDir>${project.basedir}/src/main/webapp</classesDir>
</additionalClassesDirs>
<contextReloadable>true</contextReloadable>
<port>${tomcat.http.local.port}</port>
<path>/${url.contextPath}</path>
</configuration>
</plugin>
This depends on how you use/start the maven plugin.
Starting it with
mvn tomcat7:run
should do the trick (in comparison to run-war or any other goal). See details at http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2.2/tomcat7-maven-plugin/plugin-info.html
This will actually reload the context in your tomcat. I'm not sure actual "Hot replacement" without reloading the context is possible without third party libraries/plugins like jrebel or similar.
You should be able to run the war:exploded maven goal to get your changes copied from your sources directory to the target directory.
Change your workspace in Eclipse to \tomcat\webapps Since it is just for your work, this should work fine. Whatever changes you make in Eclipse is in the same directory tomcat looks for applications to deploy
Iam searching for a maven based solution to deploy apache sling bundle and content (including jsp/html, etc files) on my sling standalone server.
I stated this private project to learn about sightly and sling models without using AEM. It is my first only sling project.
Ive created a sling bundle and a sling content project from the specific archetypes. Ive stated working with the Eclipse Sling IDE tools, but iam used to IntelliJ and there is no plugin to deploy the contetent the same way. I think its possible to build and deploy a package with both (bundle and content) by using maven.
Hopefully someone of you have some instructions or ideas to solve this problem and make it more comfortable developing web projects with apache sling.
Cheers ;)
The maven-sling-plugin can install bundles in a Sling instance, and bundles can include initial content which is installed when they become active.
The slingbucks sample demonstrates this, if you build it as shown below it will be installed in the Sling instance running on port 8080 and its initial content (defined under src/main/resources/SLING-CONTENT as specified in that module's pom.xml) will be installed:
mvn clean install org.apache.sling:maven-sling-plugin:install -Dsling.url=http://localhost:8080/system/console
If you use the Sling parent pom you can also use the autoInstallBundle profile to do the same thing using the default URL that that pom defines:
mvn clean install -P autoInstallBundle

All in all the files inside the directories defined in <Sling-Initial-Content> space of the maven-bundle-plugin will be deployed with the bundle, correct?
I have simple java web application. web application has some js, css, html files. when I change js files, i am not able to view new changes in browser. For new changes i have to perform "mvn clean install" command then only i am able to see new changes. So Is there any way to see changes without performing this command ?
thanks.
it's not recommended to perform "mvn clean install" unless you want to use your code into another project.
That's what I do when I want to publish code change into a webserver for debug purposes
1/ I configure tomcat7-maven-plugin into the parent pom project:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
2/ then
mvn tomcat7:run
will launch an embded tomcat7 server with your resources deployed.
to publish your code to a remote tomcat, you can use
tomcat7:deploy
after having configured tomcat7 plugin correctly
alternatively, import your maven project as an eclipse project (plugin name: m2e) then right click on the projet, debug on server will launch the eclipse configured tomcat.
whenever you save a resource, it will be automagically deployed on the eclipse-managed tomcat.
I'm trying to convert a project from ant to maven.
The unit tests depend on a third party binary jar, which is not available in any public maven repositories.
How do I make maven handle this situation? I have found two solutions, neither of which are acceptable. First is to use a system dependency; this doesn't work because a) the dependency should only be for the tests, and b) the dependency is not found by eclipse after generating an eclipse project.
Second is to manually install the dependency in a local repository. This seems to be the recommended way. I don't want to do this because I want users to be able to build and test with a simple 'mvn test'. If users have to read a document and copy/paste some shell commands to be able to build and test, then something's wrong.
I suppose it would be OK if maven itself installed the dependency in the local repository as part of the build - is this possible, and if so, how?
Aled.
You may want to look at install:install-file. You can make it execute in the early phase of your project (validate or initialize) via standard means.
On the second thought, if it fails because of missing dependency in the same project, there are couple more options. One is to call ant script via antrun plugin to install artifact.
Or create additional module not dependent on your artifact to be executed prior to main module and have that module install artifact as described earlier.
First of all my way would be using a repository manager such as nexus and installing this dependency to there.
However there is another solution. You can include this 3rd party jar to your project and with test plugin you can configure to include it in classpath such this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.10</version>
<configuration>
<additionalClasspathElements>
<additionalClasspathElement>path/to/additional/resources</additionalClasspathElement>
<additionalClasspathElement>path/to/additional/jar</additionalClasspathElement>
</additionalClasspathElements>
</configuration>
</plugin>
By the way, I hope that you are aware of that maven is executing surefire plugin in order to run tests by default lifecycle.
