Shade: making it easy to create executable jars

Rate this Message:
Hi,
I was looking through JIRA and the source and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to create an executable JAR. I don't want to add JAR plugin configuration to set the class I want to use for "java -jar pooky.jar". Anyone else thought about this? I want to add a simple configuration for, and for people who have put the MANIFEST.MF information in I don't see a resource transformer so that you can control the right manifest landing in the right place so it would work. I just want to specify the class and then the plugin do the work.

I was just thinking about wiring in the shade plugin for the
jetty-runner (starts up wars, etc from the cli) this morning and that would definitely require this ability...trying to remember how I did it in the past I think I just added it manually and managed the MANIFEST.MF but that is a nasty file to work with so this would be cool jesse On Thu, Jul 17, 2008 at 9:55 AM, Jason van Zyl <jason@...> wrote: > Hi, > > I was looking through JIRA and the source and there doesn't seem to be an > easy way to create an executable JAR.

In general, we let the stuff that executes prior to the Shade plugin handle the manifest. That might be the jar plugin, but it could be something else like the felix bundle plugin. I guess that would be the important thing: make sure the above scenario still works correctly.

I'll make sure, but that would work by default as if you knew the
manifest in one of your JARs had the main-class entry you wouldn't be specifying it in the shade plugin.

Maybe I'll make the transformers like the enforcers where they are
components that can be configured. I could see just specifying the main-class ignoring everything else, or allowing merging or selectively looking for an artifact which contained the MANIFEST you wanted to win.

Right, but if manifest entries can come from two places, we need to make sure they are merged. Take the "main-class" from the shade config, but everything else from the existing MANIFEST, etc....

No, it's "first one wins", not random. In general, that would be the current project artifact.
