Packing extra files along with depedency jars in hpi

[Rajeev Ranjan]

Hi team,

There's a issue which is bugging me a lot from a while. Don't know if it has been asked before.

I am working on one plugin where I need some powershell files to execute some commands, and is shared across some different projects. These files are placed in public respository in a remote location. Is it possible to get these files at build time and package these extra files in the hpi, along with dependency jars which is created? If yes, how?

Note: files are not in java project, so can't add as project depenenct itself.

Thanks in advance

Can you put the files inside the resources directory and access them using getResources()?

If so, then a build step could be added to maven to get the files you want - ex https://github.com/maven-download-plugin/maven-download-plugin

Definitely sounds like a maven-remote-resources-plugin use case.

Used this in the past to share versioned pmd rulesets IIRC, worked like a charm.

Thanks Gavin for replying, worked like a charm. Didn't know about the plugin.
