Maven War Plugin - add external resources from another jar

If I wanted to pull out a resource from another jar, say an image or XML file, is that possible? Would I use the 开发者_运维问答Maven Assembly Plugin or the War Plugin to do this? I want it to end up in a WAR file.

You could use the Dependency plugin in your war module and bind the dependency:unpack goal to the generate-resources phase. Check the Unpacking specific artifacts example.

I want to extract some resource form artefactory to used in other proyect, we need 2 plugins maven-dependency-plugin to extract and maven-clean-plugin to clean proyect. call first plugin execute the goal dependency:unpack.

        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.6</version>
            <configuration>
                <artifactItems>
                    <artifactItem>
                        <groupId>${project.groupId}</groupId>
                        <artifactId>com.company.artifactory</artifactId>
                        <version>${project.version}</version>
                        <type>jar</type>
                        <overWrite>true</overWrite>
                        <includes>dirInsideJar/**/*.*</includes>
                        <outputDirectory>src/main/resources</outputDirectory>
                    </artifactItem>
                </artifactItems>
                <!-- other configurations here -->
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
        <plugin>
            <artifactId>maven-clean-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.5</version>
            <configuration>
                <filesets>
                    <fileset>
                        <directory>src/main/resources/dirInsideJar</directory>
                    </fileset>
                </filesets>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>

The usage of the above is explained in this article.
