i.e. Can jetty:run support the feature that similar to maven-war-plugin to exclude or include the resources from the parent WARs?

Related to this issue - it would be handy if one could filter the resources that are incorporated from an overlay, similar to the method used in the war plugin.

Agreed. This would be handy when doing web development that overlays JS libs from various separate modules into a single js/ path of sorts. Right now, the first module targeted to js/ wins and none of the others show up, even if unpackOverlays is true.

This doesn't appear to be getting any love...
Using WAR overlays is a basic, commonly used feature for creating a webapp. Shared resources are often push into a separate WAR so that they can be maintained in a single location and shared/overlayed among many other projects. In addition to sharing the resources, people commonly put parameters in them (such as an XML config file that has a database URL parameter) and apply different values based on Maven build profiles. Maven's WAR plugin handles this by allowing resources to be filtered after overlayed. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to filter those overlayed resources when using jetty:run. Running jetty:run-war can take quite a bit of time to build a WAR with overlays and doesn't offer a mechanism to edit JSPs in-place in a safe manner (other than in the build directory, which is not safe when running mvn clean).

I am using maven-jetty-plugin 7.x, although this issue specifies 6.1.14.

1) Is there a current feature that satisfies this request?
2) If not, is this request going to be considered?

Would love to have this capability.

Also it would be nice if targetPath worked with jetty:run as well. I'm on maven-jetty-plugin 7.x as well. Thanks.

Implemented parsing of maven-war-plugin configuration for overlays. From jetty-9.0.0.M3 onwards, the jetty maven plugin will use this information to order and honour includes/excludes on overlays.
