Support to copy resources to another path

[cmoulliard]

Currently, all the resources generated under local directory target/maven are copied to /path within the Docker image according to the basedir property

                <version>${docker.maven.plugin.version}</version>
                <configuration>
                    <images>
                        <image>
                            <name>${docker.image}</name>
                            <build>
                                <from>${docker.from}</from>
                                <assembly>
                                    <basedir>/deployments</basedir>
                                    <descriptor>${project.basedir}/src/main/resources/assemblies/apiman-gateway-app.xml</descriptor>

This config works very well excepted that all the content defined under the folder maven will be copied to /deployments as defined within the Dockerfile generated

COPY maven /deployments/

If we would like to copy resources to a specific path, this is not possible. Si, I would like to suggest that the docker command COPY is also supported

<build>
     <copy>maven/secret /secret</copy>
</build>

You should use a another baseDir than /deployments (which is the default). That goes directly below <build>.

@cmoulliard could I have a look on the full project so that I can reproduce it ? (and maybe fix the setup)

[rhuss]

If you need more flexibility for creating images, I recommend to use the dockerfile mode, where an external Dockerfile is evaluated. <copy> wont be added to the plugin-config mode since this overlaps with the assembly (and there's nothing a <copy> could do what an assembly can't)

Solution that worked:

• Set baseDir to /
• Use deployments instead of . in the assembly descriptor
