Re: [m2e-users] How to compile a project properly?

[Fred Bricon <fbricon@xxxxxxxxx>]

Assuming your project has a war packaging, I would suggest adding a specific maven-war-plugin configuration so m2e-wtp could tag your generated site for publishing in WTP : 

<profiles>

<profile>

<id>m2e</id>

<activation>

<property>

<name>m2e.version</name>

</property>

</activation>

<build>

<plugins>

<plugin>

<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>

<version>2.3</version>

<configuration>

<failOnMissingWebXml>false</failOnMissingWebXml>

<webResources>

<resource>

<directory>${project.build.directory}/${project.artifactId}-${project.version}/WEB-INF/site</directory>

<targetPath>WEB-INF/site</targetPath>

</resource>

</webResources>

</configuration>

</plugin>

</plugins>

</build>

</profile>

</profiles>

This setup assumes your site is generated via a maven CLI build (refresh the target folder in eclipse to see the changes)

My site is a static site generated by a Ruby script called Jekyll:

Here is an example of the POM's plugin in action:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>de.saumya.mojo</groupId>

                    <jrubyVersion>1.7.3</jrubyVersion>

                        <configuration>
<launchDirectory>${basedir}/src/main/site</launchDirectory>
<execArgs>${project.build.directory}/rubygems/bin/jekyll
                                ${basedir}/src/main/site ${project.build.directory}/${project.artifactId}-${project.version}/WEB-INF/site</execArgs>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>

When I build my project using mvn install the WAR file is packaged properly with all the compiled static stuff that I expect.

However, when using m2e's WTP connector, starting the tomcat server in eclipse works fine but the static content is not there (404's). I am unsure how to fix this...

thanks
