Plugin Documentation

Goals available for this plugin:

Goal Description
remote-resources:aggregate

Pull down resourceBundles containing remote resources and process the resources contained inside. When that is done, the resources are injected into the current (in-memory) Maven project, making them available to the process-resources phase.

Resources that end in ".vm" are treated as Velocity templates. For those, the ".vm" is stripped off for the final artifact name and it's fed through Velocity to have properties expanded, conditions processed, etc...

Resources that don't end in ".vm" are copied "as is".
remote-resources:bundle Bundle up resources that should be considered as a remote-resource, generating META-INF/maven/remote-resources.xml descriptor.
remote-resources:help Display help information on maven-remote-resources-plugin.
Call mvn remote-resources:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal=<goal-name> to display parameter details.
