Description

Running dependency:unpack referencing a project in the reactor has the following output which shows it is scanning for repository artifacts rather than the artifact in the reactor:

[INFO] [dependency:unpack \{execution: unpack-tests}]
[INFO] Configured Artifact: com.example.app:app-acceptance-test:2.6-SNAPSHOT:jar
[INFO] snapshot com.example.app:app-acceptance-test:2.6-SNAPSHOT: checking for updates from snapshots
[INFO] snapshot com.example.app:app-acceptance-test:2.6-SNAPSHOT: checking for updates from m1-repo

9125K downloaded
[INFO] Expanding: /Users/mryall/.m2/repository/com/example/app/app-acceptance-test/2.6-SNAPSHOT/app-acceptance-test-2.6-SNAPSHOT.jar into /Users/mryall/src/example/app/app-webapp/target/it-classes

To explain the scenario: to build reusable acceptance tests, I have the following sub-modules of my project:

  • app-core (jar)
  • app-acceptance-tests (jar)
  • app-webapp (war)

The acceptance tests are packaged this way for further use in testing, and also run against the webapp in the integration-test phase. This is where the problem arises.

Running 'mvn clean integration-test' does the following relevant tasks:

  • in the app-acceptance-test module, compiles and packages a JAR of tests
  • in the app-webapp module, uses the dependency:unpack goal to extract the tests into target/it-classes in the pre-integration-test phase, and test:test to run them in the integration test phase.

I don't think this is caused by the snapshot version, because the release plugin also fails because it is unable to find the 2.6 version when it runs 'mvn clean verify'. There, it scans all the repositories for the acceptance test artifact before failing with the usual error:

[INFO] Failed to resolve artifact.

GroupId: com.example.app
ArtifactId: app-acceptance-test
Version: 2.6

Reason: Unable to download the artifact from any repository

Java version: 1.4.2_12

As mentioned in MNG-2877, this doesn't seem to be a bug in the Dependency Plugin itself, but rather a bug in the dependency resolution code in Maven core. We've just ran into this very problem. Using Maven 2.0.11 or 2.2.1 the build fails, but using Maven 3.0-beta-1 it is successful.

It conceivably could be fixed in the plugin to check the reactor, but I'm unlikely to do it since M3 solves this for us. If someone wants to attach a patch then I'll take a look

If you want to unpack dependencies that are in the reactor the dependency:unpack-dependencies is the goal you're after. To my understanding dependency:unpack will only ever look in the local and remote repositories.
