Consider a copy goal #11

Closed hinerm closed 9 years ago

hinerm commented 9 years ago

We should investigate whether a copy goal would be necessary. The question is if maven-resources-plugin:copy-resources is sufficient.

See SO post.

There is also dependency:copy. But actually, what I meant in my email was actually an improvement to the imagej-maven-plugin to specifically support copying "bare" resources (e.g., scripts and configuration files) into a desired place in an ImageJ directory structure. We could use the convention of src/main/imagej for this, which the plugin would pick up on and copy appropriately. Such a feature would be necessary to make the fiji.git build fully replicate a Fiji user installation from scratch.

OK, I should file a separate issue for the imagej-maven-plugin level resources thing.

Upon consideration, let's close this in favor of imagej/imagej-maven-plugin#11. I do not think we need a general-purpose scijava:copy goal; we can reopen later if we find a use case for it beyond the imagej-maven-plugin use case.
