Gestione delle dipendenze multi-module con Plugin di Assembly Maven

Question

Io uso MAVEN Plugin Assembly per creare un Assembly per il mio progetto multi-module. Esistono due applicazioni separate costruite da questo progetto multi-module, ciascuna con un insieme separato di dipendenze. Ho effettuato un descrittore di assemblaggio personalizzato che assembla due directory (per ogni applicazione) con le build di moduli e le loro rispettive dipendenze. Fa tutto bene, ma una cosa - mette le dipendenze per entrambi i moduli l'assemblea dell'altro.

Di seguito è riportata una versione semplificata del mio progetto, che ha esattamente lo stesso comportamento.

Considera un progetto costituito da due moduli e un modulo di assemblaggio:

APP
  module1
  module2
  assembly

.

Ho aggiunto le dipendenze puramente per la dimostrazione:

com.test.app:module1:jar:1.0
\- commons-cli:commons-cli:jar:1.2:compile

com.test.app:module2:jar:1.0
\- commons-daemon:commons-daemon:jar:1.0.8:compile

.

Ecco il genitore POM:

<project>
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

  <groupId>com.test</groupId>
  <artifactId>app</artifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
  <packaging>pom</packaging>

  <modules>
    <module>module1</module>
    <module>module2</module>
    <module>assembly</module>
  </modules>
</project>

.

Modulo1 POM:

<project>
  <parent>
    <groupId>com.test</groupId>
    <artifactId>app</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
  </parent>

  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

  <groupId>com.test.app</groupId>
  <artifactId>module1</artifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
  <packaging>jar</packaging>

  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>commons-cli</groupId>
      <artifactId>commons-cli</artifactId>
      <version>1.2</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</project>

.

Module2 POM:

<project>
  <parent>
    <groupId>com.test</groupId>
    <artifactId>app</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
  </parent>

  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

  <groupId>com.test.app</groupId>
  <artifactId>module2</artifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
  <packaging>jar</packaging>

  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>commons-daemon</groupId>
      <artifactId>commons-daemon</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.8</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</project>

.

Assembly POM:

<project>
  <parent>
    <groupId>com.test</groupId>
    <artifactId>app</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
  </parent>

  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

  <groupId>com.test.app</groupId>
  <artifactId>assembly</artifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
  <packaging>pom</packaging>

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.2</version>

        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>make-assembly</id>
            <phase>package</phase>

            <goals>
              <goal>single</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>

        <configuration>
          <appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>

          <descriptors>
            <descriptor>src/main/assembly/descriptor.xml</descriptor>
          </descriptors>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>

.

E infine, il descrittore di assemblaggio:

<assembly>
  <id>distribution</id>
  <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>

  <formats>
    <format>dir</format>
  </formats>

  <moduleSets>
    <moduleSet>
      <useAllReactorProjects>true</useAllReactorProjects>

      <includes>
        <include>com.test.app:module1:jar</include>
      </includes>

      <binaries>
        <outputDirectory>module1</outputDirectory>
        <unpack>false</unpack>

        <dependencySets>
          <dependencySet>
            <unpack>false</unpack>
          </dependencySet>
        </dependencySets>
      </binaries>
    </moduleSet>

    <moduleSet>
      <useAllReactorProjects>true</useAllReactorProjects>

      <includes>
        <include>com.test.app:module2:jar</include>
      </includes>

      <binaries>
        <outputDirectory>module2</outputDirectory>
        <unpack>false</unpack>

        <dependencySets>
          <dependencySet>
            <unpack>false</unpack>
          </dependencySet>
        </dependencySets>
      </binaries>
    </moduleSet>
  </moduleSets>
</assembly>

.

Come puoi vedere, il montaggio è vincolante alla fase del pacchetto. Quindi, quando eseguo

mvn package

.

Dalla directory genitore, ho il seguente assembly

module1/
  commons-cli-1.2.jar
  commons-daemon-1.0.8.jar
  module1-1.0.jar
module2/
  commons-cli-1.2.jar
  commons-daemon-1.0.8.jar
  module2-1.0.jar

.

Fondamentalmente, il problema qui è che il modulo1 non dipende dal daemon comuni, ma il plugin dell'assembly ha incluso la dipendenza. Allo stesso modo, con Module2 e Commons-CLI.

Qualcuno può spiegare perché il plugin dell'assembly si comporta in questo modo?

A quale sarebbe una soluzione?

Answer 1

I've always had similar experiences using the assembly plugin with multi-module projects where the end result wasn't what I expected. I hope someone else can provide a more accurate answer as to why that's happening and how best to use those two concepts in tandem.

That said, a possible work-around would be to have module1 and module2 generate their own assembly artifacts which contain their respective jars and dependencies. Then you can modify the assembly sub-module pom file to have dependencies on the generated distribution artifacts from its sibling modules and then unpack those into a new assembly.

In both Module1 and Module2's pom files you can add an assembly plugin configuration to your package phase much like you did with the assembly sub-module.

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.2</version>

        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>make-assembly</id>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>single</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>

        <configuration>
          <descriptors>
            <descriptor>src/main/assembly/descriptor.xml</descriptor>
          </descriptors>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

Module1 would have a src/main/assembly/descriptor.xml like this

<assembly>
  <id>distribution</id>
  <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>

  <formats>
    <format>zip</format>
  </formats>

  <dependencySets>
    <dependencySet>
      <outputDirectory>module1</outputDirectory>
      <unpack>false</unpack>
    </dependencySet>
  </dependencySets>
</assembly>

And Module2 will have a similar src/main/assembly/descriptor.xml

<assembly>
  <id>distribution</id>
  <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>

  <formats>
    <format>zip</format>
  </formats>

  <dependencySets>
    <dependencySet>
      <outputDirectory>module2</outputDirectory>
      <unpack>false</unpack>
    </dependencySet>
  </dependencySets>
</assembly>

Then in the assembly/pom.xml you would add the Module 1 and 2 zip artifacts as dependencies

  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.test.app</groupId>
      <artifactId>module1</artifactId>
      <version>1.0</version>
      <type>zip</type>
      <classifier>distribution</classifier>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.test.app</groupId>
      <artifactId>module2</artifactId>
      <version>1.0</version>
      <type>zip</type>
      <classifier>distribution</classifier>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>

...and trim up the assembly/src/main/assembly/descriptor.xml file to look like this

<assembly>
  <id>distribution</id>
  <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>

  <formats>
    <format>dir</format>
  </formats>

  <dependencySets>
    <dependencySet>
      <useTransitiveDependencies>false</useTransitiveDependencies>
      <unpack>true</unpack>
    </dependencySet>
  </dependencySets>

</assembly>

Like I said this would be one possible work around and unfortunately adds a significant amount of additional XML configuration to your build process. But it works.
