Adding Resource Transformers
The default POM file supplied with the demo publication includes an empty Shade plug-in configuration that looks like this:
<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.escenic.widget-framework</groupId> <artifactId>wf-build-tools</artifactId> <version>${wf.version}</version> </dependency> </dependencies> </plugin>
If you want to add a resource transformer, this is how you do it:
<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.escenic.widget-framework</groupId> <artifactId>wf-build-tools</artifactId> <version>${wf.version}</version> </dependency> </dependencies> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>shade</goal> </goals> <configuration> <transformers combine.children="append"> <transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.AppendingTransformer"> <resource>WEB-INF/classes/CustomResources.properties</resource> </transformer> <!-- more transformers can be added here if required --> </transformers> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin>
The transformers
element must have a
combine.children
attribute set to
append
as shown in the example. This ensures that
the additional transformers you have specified are correctly combined
with the default transformers configured in the parent POM file. The
transformers
element may contain more than one
transformer
if required.
For information about the purpose of the example shown above, see Adding Resource Files.
