使用 Maven 时 manifest 的生成规则
译自 http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-jar-plugin/examples/manifest-customization.html
默认的 Manifest
由 Maven Archiver 创建的默认的 manifest 文件包含以下内容
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Maven ${maven.version}
Build-Jdk: ${java.version}
注意:Build-Jdk项 不会考虑工具链配置,这是和运行Maven实例时相同的JDK版本
增加实现和规范细节(Adding Implementation And Specification Details)
maven-jar-plugin 从 2.1 版本开始,开始使用 3.5.0 版本的 Maven Archiver, 该版本的 Maven Archiver 默认不会向 manifest 中添加 Implementation 和 Specification 细节。如果需要这些,你需要显示进行配置。
注意:由于这是 Maven Archive 最近才有的变动,有些插件可能会还没有开始采用它。你需要检查相关插件的文档。这个例子中,我们使用 maven-jar-plugin 2.1,这是插件可以使用该特性的第一个版本。
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
...
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addDefaultImplementationEntries>true</addDefaultImplementationEntries>
<addDefaultSpecificationEntries>true</addDefaultSpecificationEntries>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
</project>
生成的 manifest 文件内容如下
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Maven ${maven.version}
Build-Jdk: ${java.version}
Specification-Title: ${project.name}
Specification-Version: ${project.artifact.selectedVersion.majorVersion}.${project.artifact.selectedVersion.minorVersion}
Specification-Vendor: ${project.organization.name}
Implementation-Title: ${project.name}
Implementation-Version: ${project.version}
Implementation-Vendor: ${project.organization.name}
注意:如果你的 pom.xml 文件中没有 <organization>/<name> 元素,则 Specification-Vendor 和 Implementation-Vendor 条目不会出现在 manifest 文件中
自定义 Customization the Manifest
默认的 manifest 可以通过 archive 配置项来改变。下面例子中你可以找到一些可用的配置项。更多的信息参见 Maven Archiver reference
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.2.0</version>
<configuration>
<archive>
<index>true</index>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
</manifest>
<manifestEntries>
<mode>development</mode>
<url>${project.url}</url>
<key>value</key>
</manifestEntries>
</archive>
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
</project>
Manifest 条目(Manifest Entries)
如果你发现 Maven Archiver 配置项不足以操作 manifest,则可以向 manifest 添加自己的条目。 这是通过<manifestEntries>
配置元素来完成的。
在下面的例子中,我们将通过在 maven-jar-plugin 的<configuration> / <archive>
元素中指定所需的内容,向清单中添加一些条目。
注意:与这里的所有示例一样,此配置可以在所有使用Maven Archiver的插件中使用,而不仅仅是本示例中的maven-jar-plugin。
<project>
<url>http://some.url.org/</url>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
...
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifestEntries>
<mode>development</mode>
<url>${project.url}</url>
</manifestEntries>
</archive>
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
</project>
如上所示,您可以使用字面值(literal values),也可以将POM中的值插入到字面值中,或者仅使用直接的POM表达式。 最后生成的 manifest 文件如下
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Maven ${maven.version}
Build-Jdk: ${java.version}
mode: development
url: http://some.url.org/
Note: If your pom.xml does not have the <url> element, referenced through interpolation, then the entry url will not be in the manifest.
Manifest Sections
<manifestSections>
元素提供了一种方式用来自定义 manifest 段 (manifest sections)。它包含一个 list of <manifestSection>
elements
注意:与这里的所有示例一样,此配置可以在所有使用Maven Archiver的插件中使用,而不仅仅是本示例中的maven-jar-plugin。
使用如下配置
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
...
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifestSections>
<manifestSection>
<name>foo</name>
<manifestEntries>
<id>nice foo</id>
</manifestEntries>
</manifestSection>
<manifestSection>
<name>bar</name>
<manifestEntries>
<id>nice bar</id>
</manifestEntries>
</manifestSection>
</manifestSections>
</archive>
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
</project>
生成的 manifest 文件如下
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Maven ${maven.version}
Build-Jdk: ${java.version}
Name: foo
id: nice foo
Name: bar
id: nice bar
设置 Classpath
添加一个 Class-Path Entry 到 Manifest
通过<addClasspath>
配置项, Maven Archiver 可以把你项目的 classpath 添加到 manifest,
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
...
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-lang</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
<artifactId>plexus-utils</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
...
</project>
生成的 manifest 如下
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Maven ${maven.version}
Build-Jdk: ${java.version}
Class-Path: plexus-utils-1.1.jar commons-lang-2.1.jar
让 JAR 可执行 (Make The Jar Executable)
如果要创建可执行的jar文件,则需要相应地配置Maven Archiver。 您需要告诉它要使用哪个主类。 这是通过<mainClass>
配置元素完成的。 下面是一个示例pom.xml,配置为添加 classpath 并将full.qualified.MainClass类用作主类:
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
...
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<mainClass>fully.qualified.MainClass</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
...
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-lang</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
<artifactId>plexus-utils</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
...
</project>
生成结果
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Maven ${maven.version}
Build-Jdk: ${java.version}
Main-Class: fully.qualified.MainClass
Class-Path: plexus-utils-1.1.jar commons-lang-2.1.jar
修改classpath,添加文件夹前缀(Altering The Classpath: Defining a Classpath Directory Prefix)
有时,能够更改classpath 很有用,例如,在创建瘦的war文件(creating skinny war-files)时。 这可以通过<classpathPrefix>
配置元素来实现。
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<classpathPrefix>lib/</classpathPrefix>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-lang</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
<artifactId>plexus-utils</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
...
</project>
生成的 manifest 文件中的 classpath 看起来像这样:
Class-Path: lib/plexus-utils-1.1.jar lib/commons-lang-2.1.jar
修改classpath,使用 Maven Repository-Style Classpath
Occasionally, you may want to include a Maven repository-style directory structure in your archive. If you wish to reference the dependency archives within those directories in your manifest classpath, try using the <classpathLayoutType>
element with a value of 'repository'
, like this:
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<classpathPrefix>lib/</classpathPrefix>
<classpathLayoutType>repository</classpathLayoutType>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-lang</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
<artifactId>plexus-utils</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
...
</project>
The manifest classpath produced using the above configuration would look like this:
Class-Path: lib/org/codehaus/plexus/plexus-utils/1.1/plexus-utils-1.1.jar lib/commons-lang/commons-lang/2.1/commons-lang-2.1.jar
修改classpath,使用自定义的 classpath 格式 (Altering The Classpath: Using a Custom Classpath Format)
At times, you may have dependency archives in a custom format within your own archive, one that doesn't conform to any of the above classpath layouts. If you wish to define a custom layout for dependency archives within your archive's manifest classpath, try using the <classpathLayoutType>
element with a value of 'custom'
, along with the <customClasspathLayout>
element, like this:
<project>
...
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<classpathLayoutType>custom</classpathLayoutType>
<customClasspathLayout>WEB-INF/lib/$${artifact.groupIdPath}/$${artifact.artifactId}-$${artifact.version}$${dashClassifier?}.$${artifact.extension}</customClasspathLayout>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-lang</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
<artifactId>plexus-utils</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
...
</project>
This classpath layout is a little more involved than the previous examples. To understand how the value of the <customClasspathLayout>
configuration is interpreted, it's useful to understand the rules applied when resolving expressions within the value:
- If present, trim off the prefix 'artifact.' from the expression.
- Attempt to resolve the expression as a reference to the Artifact using reflection (eg.
'artifactId'
becomes a reference to the method'getArtifactId()'
). - Attempt to resolve the expression as a reference to the ArtifactHandler of the current Artifact, again using reflection (eg.
'extension'
becomes a reference to the method'getExtension()'
). - Attempt to resolve the expression as a key in the special-case Properties instance, which contains the following mappings:
'dashClassifier'
: If the Artifact has a classifier, this will be'-$artifact.classifier'
, otherwise this is an empty string.'dashClassifier?'
: This is a synonym of'dashClassifier'
.'groupIdPath'
: This is the equivalent of'$artifact.groupId'
, with all'.'
characters replaced by'/'
.
The manifest classpath produced using the above configuration would look like this:
Class-Path: WEB-INF/lib/org/codehaus/plexus/plexus-utils-1.1.jar WEB-INF/lib/commons-lang/commons-lang-2.1.jar
Handling Snapshot Versions
Depending on how you construct your archive, you may have the ability to specify whether snapshot dependency archives are included with the version suffix '-SNAPSHOT'
, or whether the unique timestamp and build-number for that archive is used. For instance, the Assembly Plugin allows you to make this decision in the <outputFileNameMapping>
element of its <dependencySet
> descriptor section.
Forcing the use of -SNAPSHOT versions when using the simple (default) or repository classpath layout
To force the use of '-SNAPSHOT'
version naming, simply disable the <useUniqueVersions>
configuration element, like this:
<useUniqueVersions>false</useUniqueVersions>
Forcing the use of -SNAPSHOT versions with custom layouts
To force the use of '-SNAPSHOT'
version naming, simply replace '$artifact.version'
with '$artifact.baseVersion'
in the custom layout example above, so it looks like this:
<customClasspathLayout>WEB-INF/lib/${artifact.groupIdPath}/${artifact.artifactId}-${artifact.baseVersion}${dashClassifier?}.${artifact.extension}</customClasspathLayout>
The full example configuration would look like this:
<project> ... <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <archive> <manifest> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath> <classpathLayoutType>custom</classpathLayoutType> <customClasspathLayout>WEB-INF/lib/${artifact.groupIdPath}/${artifact.artifactId}-${artifact.version}${dashClassifier?}.${artifact.extension}</customClasspathLayout> </manifest> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> ...</project>
使用你自己的 Manifest File
默认情况下,Maven Archiver 会为你产生 manifest 文件。你也可以通过配置项 manifestFile 来指定并使用你自己的 manifest 文件。自己指定的文件的内容,会被 merge 到 Maven Archiver 生成 manifest 文件中。如果你自己的文件和默认生成的文件有相同的条目,则自定义的条目会覆盖掉自动生成的条目。
注意:与这里的所有示例一样,此配置可以在所有使用Maven Archiver的插件中使用,而不仅仅是本示例中的maven-jar-plugin。
