Robert Scholte reopened MDEP-390: --------------------------------- I'll reopen this issue and adjust the title. Looks like a new feature, see [Issues for unpack|https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP/component/12672#selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project%3Acomponent-issues-panel] The {{remoteRepositories}}-option is a follow-up of MDEP-381 and should be equivalent to [dependency:get remoteRepositories|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/get-mojo.html#remoteRepositories] > org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:get to support "unpack" > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MDEP-390 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-390 > Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: get > Affects Versions: 2.5.1 > Reporter: Mickael Istria > Assignee: Robert Scholte > > As a user, I'd like to download a Maven artifact from command-line and get it > unzipped. > In order to use the maven-depdenceny-plugin:goal as the ultimate command-line > client to download a maven artifact (not necessarly in the context of a > project), it would be useful to add to it an "unpack" parameter that would > allow to unpack the just-downloaded stuff. > When in comes to automating download+unzip of an artifact in CI: > Currently, one has to add a Shell or Ant or Groovy script to unzip, after > using "mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.5.1:get > -Dartifact=blah:blah:1.0 -DremoteRepositories=http://somewhere". It's not > very convenient as this requires usage of another Ant or Groovy file, or > usage of a platform-specific interpreter. > Also note that the unpack-mojo can't fit this use-case since it's not > configurable via command-line (can't set artifactItems nor > remoteRepositories). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
