  <groupId>org.apache.meecrowave</groupId>
  <artifactId>meecrowave-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>${meecrowave.version}</version>
</plugin>

TIP: most of the configuration is inherited from meecrowave-core.

Here are the available options (see core configuration for the details):

include::../../../../../target/generated-doc/MavenConfiguration.adoc[]

== Bundling

[source]
----
mvn meecrowave:bundle
----

This maven goal will create a zip/tar.gz (configurable) ready to launch your application.

The layout if the following one:

[source]
----
.
├── bin
│   └── meecrowave.sh
├── conf
│   ├── log4j2.xml
│   └── meecrowave.properties
├── lib
│   └── *.jar
├── logs
│   └── meecrowave.logls l
└── temp
----

conf folder supports out of the box these files (but you can add your own if needed):

- log4j2.xml
- server.xml
- meecrowave.properties

You can acess the root folder of the distribution reading the system property `meecrowave.base`.

`meecrowave.properties` supports all configuration options of the cli (just remove the `--`): http://openwebbeans.apache.org/meecrowave/meecrowave-core/cli.html.

Note: you can also split like Tomcat MEECROWAVE_BASE and MEECROWAVE_HOME if you want to extract meecrowave stack in a separate folder (from the application) to be able to update
it independently.

== Shading

Plain Maven shade plugin enables you to build fatjar with Maven.

Points to take care are:

1. merge CXF resources
2. merge Log4j2 resources
3. merge OpenWebBeans resources
4. merge SPI files (META-INF/services)
5. ensure signatures are still valid in the aggregated jar
