Intellij Idea ignoring maven build plugin
I have a project with multiple modules and one module is a web application and the other is a custom one.
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.4.1</version>
<configuration>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>src</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
<formats><format>jar</format></formats>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>cfg-src</id>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<phase>package</phase>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Basically, I need this archive to contain a maven project with maven sources and framework, no binaries, etc. When I build WAR with maven i.e. Mvn, it's okay. I am using src classifier depending. My WAR contains a jar with the correct build. But when I deploy WAR with Intellij Idea (I created tomcat run config) the project build config is ignored and I am wrong. How to make Idea ignore plugin assembly. Please let me know if I am clear.
IntelliJ won't start mvn package
when deploying your webapp to Tomcat. It does its custom Make and Build artifact actions.
You can change this behavior by going to the Run / Debug Configuration dialog box and choosing Run Maven Goal (package in your case) as a Before Run action instead of Make and Build Artifact.
Hope it helps
