I am using wagon-maven-plugin to scp my WAR file to the server. It works fine. My next step is to perform some commands on the server (mkdir, etc). Is there a plugin that helps me do that? Is there a way to work it out using wagon-maven-plugin?
I am relatively new to mvn. Any help would be appreciated.
Any suggestions?
I was able to run ssh commands with exec-maven-plugin. It is a powerful maven plugin to do all sorts of hack and also run commands. For anyone interested in the solution
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.2.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>install</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<executable>sh</executable>
<arguments>
<!-- Shell script location -->
<argument>runscript.sh</argument>
<!-- arg #1 -->
<argument>${file_1}</argument>
</arguments>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Another solution I found was to run maven-antrun-plugin. I would not recommend it since it runs ANT tasks and there are a lot of dependencies to it. But its handy if you would need to run ant tasks via maven.
<plugin>
<inherited>false</inherited>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.6</version>
<configuration>
<target>
<loadproperties srcFile="deploy.properties" />
<ftp action="send" server="server"
remotedir="/a/b" userid="usr"
password="pw" depends="no"
verbose="yes" binary="yes">
<fileset dir="modules/my-module/target">
<include name="file.zip" />
</fileset>
</ftp>
<!-- calls deploy script -->
<sshexec host="host" trust="yes"
username="usr" password="pw"
command="sh /my/script.sh" />
<!-- SSH -->
<taskdef name="sshexec"
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.ssh.SSHExec"
classpathref="maven.plugin.classpath" />
<taskdef name="ftp"
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net.FTP"
classpathref="maven.plugin.classpath" />
</target>
</configuration>
