Thanks Brian, this led me on the right path. Still... it'd be nice if the
repositories feature of assemblies would work for a multi-module project.
So I ended up with this in my parent pom:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<copyPom>true</copyPom>
<useRepositoryLayout>true</useRepositoryLayout>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2-beta-3</version>
<configuration>
<finalName>m2-repo</finalName>
<appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/maven-assembly-repo.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</plugin>
and my maven-assembly-repo.xml descriptor looks like this:
<assembly xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
http://maven.apache.org/xsd/assembly-1.0.0.xsd";>
<id>repository</id>
<formats>
<format>zip</format>
</formats>
<includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>
<moduleSets>
<moduleSet>
<sources>
<includeModuleDirectory>false</includeModuleDirectory>
<fileSets>
<fileSet>
<directory>target/dependency</directory>
</fileSet>
</fileSets>
</sources>
</moduleSet>
</moduleSets>
</assembly>
Thanks everyone for trying to help. BTW... it DID occur to me to
temporarily use an empty local repo and then zip it when I'm done with a
build. That would be pragmatic to get a solution quick but it felt a bit
sloppy and I wanted a better solution.
