Creating marketplace package with variables in install.xml

patrek — Mon, 04 Jun 2012 04:46:42 GMT

Making a package for the marketplace, I'm trying the following syntax, with no success <update file="${package.root}/bundles/my-super-bundle-${property-from-pom.version}" todir="${env.bundles}" overwrite="true" />

But it works if I use <update file="${package.root}/bundles/my-super-bundle-1.0.0" todir="${env.bundles}" overwrite="true" />

As my bundle contains a few jar, I'd like to be able to define my version number in one place (the pom.xml file) and reuse it in assembly.xml and install.xml. Is there a way/syntax to do it or do I have to revert to replacement with the maven filtering mechanism?

Thanks

I recommend to assemble the Marketplace package using nuxeo-distribution-tools.

You can give a look at nuxeo-marketplace-dm to see how it's done for Nuxeo DM Marketplace package.

About your question, you could use Ant replacement with Maven variables (thanks to nuxeo-distribution-tools) but note the update command accepts a directory as input: you don't need to list each bundle with its precise name, simply provide the directory containing the bundles you want to be deployed by your package.

We are using the nuxeo-distribution-tools.

Note the Marketplace package build is using a comparison between the two EAR-like artifacts [nuxeo-distribution-cap][1] and [nuxeo-distribution-dm][2].
