-------------------------------
Summary: Consider minimization on shaded jars
Key: BEAM-1720
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-1720
Project: Beam
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build-system
Reporter: Aviem Zur
Assignee: Aviem Zur
Some of our modules shade and relocate Guava as part of their build, this adds
a considerable amount to their file size, even though they do not use every
single class in Guava's jar.
maven shade-plugin solves this by minimization which only shades classes which
are in use in the module into the jar.
There are a few issues with configuring minimzation for our shaded modules
currently:
1. There is a bug in shade-plugin where if minimization is declared on a
project with pom packaging it fails. I have created a
[ticket|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHADE-253] and
[PR|https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/pull/107] with a fix for this but
could take a while before it is available to us.
2. Minimization on all of our modules adds a significant amount of build time,
which we wish to avoid. (Up from 02:30 mins for a build of the entire project
(skipping tests) on a Macbook pro laptop to over 5 mins)
