Plugin Documentation

Goals available for this plugin:

Goal Description
blunderbuss:help Display help information on blunderbuss-maven-plugin.
Call mvn blunderbuss:help -Ddetail=true -Dgoal=<goal-name> to display parameter details.
blunderbuss:sync Upload the local repository cache to a specific deployment repository. Unlike the standard maven deploy goals, this goal is tolerant of situations where an attempt is made to re-deploy a release artifact to a repository where it already exists. SNAPSHOT artifacts are ignored

In general, this goal should be executed by itself, either standalone after carefully populating a local maven repository, or by a CI build agent in a maven project directory after running mvn install for all project modules, so that all new dependencies that are resolved from upstream repositories can be redeployed to the primary cloud artifact feed.

This goal makes use of simple index jars deployed to (and resolved from) the target repository to keep track of which artifacts have been uploaded or which have been determined to already be present, so that reattempts can be avoided on subsequent executions. When different CI pipelines are deploying to the same repository, use a different indexArtifactId value for each pipeline and include all the values as elements in altIndex so that they cross reference each other while avoiding duplication of index entries.
