maven 排除配置文件打包_Maven，从打包的jar中排除资源文件夹

I'm trying to achieve the following distribution for my application, and I'm following this question as guideline

dist/

|-- application-1.0.jar

|-- conf/

|-- application.properties

|-- log4j.properties

|-- lib/

|-- *.jar

My src/main/resources looks like following

resources/

|-- to.be.packaged.inside.jar

|-- to.be.packaged/

| |-- also

|-- conf/

|-- application.properties

|-- log4j.properties

Now, I want to exclude the whole conf folder from being packaged in the JAR (but placed in the target folder).

I tried the following configuration to maven-jar-plugin

conf/*

However, this still packages an empty conf folder inside the JAR. How do I exclude the folder and the content?

解决方案

With conf/* you're only excluding the matching files, it doesn't match the conf directory. By added conf the directory will be excluded as well.

However, you should ask yourself: should these files be available on the classpath? I would expect the conf-directory to be a directory in the project-root (i.e. /conf ), which also means a cleaner pom because you don't have to exclude resources.
