Store all dependent jar files in directory

Question

I use buildr for my build process.

My project setup:

Project A -> Project B Project A requires ant.jar

So, I want to create an output looking the following:

target/a.jar
target/lib/b.jar
target/lib/ant.jar

So far, I only managed to create a.jar inside target/ How can I persist the dependent jar files?

Answer 1

You can extend the package task to copy all the dependencies of Project A into target/lib like so,

ANT = 'org.apache.ant:ant:jar:1.8.1'

define 'my-project' do

  define 'A' do
    compile.with project('B'), ANT

    package.enhance do
      mkdir_p _(:target, :lib)
      compile.dependencies.each do |d|
        cp d.name, _(:target, :lib)
      end
    end
  end

  define 'B' do
    # ...
  end
end
