Maven Jetty plugin

This plugin starts Jetty on the J2EE modules specified as dependencies.

Using the plugin

Define the WARs to deploy in Jetty as project dependencies. For example:

  <dependency>
    <groupId>groupId</groupId>
    <artifactId>artifactId</artifactId>
    <version>version</version>
    <type>war</type>
    <properties>
      <jetty.bundle>true</jetty.bundle>
    </properties>
  </dependency>

Note: If you run the jetty:run-war goal, your current project will also be considered as a WAR and it will be also deployed in Jetty.
