That might look like it works if you only use the exploded war, but the
files don't actually make it into the war file. The problem is that the
war file is created before the unpacking happens. You can see this in the
Maven log:
[INFO] Building war: <path to my war file>
[INFO] [dependency:unpack {execution: unpack}]
Obviously, the unpacking has to happen before the war is created. ;-)
Any other ideas?

Subject: [M2] Adding downloaded files to a war
I'm using dependency:unpack to download and explode a zip from the repo.
Now I need to get those files into the war file I'm building, but I'm not
seeing a way to do this. The warSourceDirectory allows only a single
directory (at least according to the docs), and I already have files in
the default location that also need to be included.
The scenario here is that I'm using an external DHTML toolkit in my web
app, so I need to be able to download that from the repo and add the files
to my war. It seems like that would be a fairly common scenario.
Ideas, anyone?
