Maven and Cargo: start Jetty-Container with war-File

I just started a new Maven project that is intended to start a Jetty containing a war-File from a depended project. The cargo-plugin should be the right tool for this.

Unfortunately it doesn't work for me. It starts Jetty successfully but it only contains the default-cargo-war-file, not the expected one.

This is the relevant part of my war-File:

<dependencies>
   <dependency>
      <groupId>com.group</groupId>
      <artifactId>my-webapp</artifactId>
      <version>0.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
      <type>war</type>
   </dependency>    
</dependencies>

<build>     
    <plugins>                       
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.codehaus.cargo</groupId>
            <artifactId>cargo-maven2-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.5</version>
            <configuration>
                <container>
                    <containerId>jetty7x</containerId>
                    <type>embedded</type>                       
                </container>

                    <properties>
                        <cargo.servlet.port>7070</cargo.servlet.port>
                        <cargo.logging>high</cargo.logging>
                    </properties>
                </configuration>            
                <deployer>
                    <type>embedded</type>
                    <deployables>
                        <deployable>
                            <groupId>com.group</groupId>
                            <type>war</type>
                            <artifactId>my-webapp</artifactId>
                            <properties>
                                <context>/path</context>
                            </properties>
                        </deployable>                           
                    </deployables>
                </deployer>                 
            </configuration>                
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

I use the plugin by starting mvn cargo:start.

There is no error log output.

How can I tell Cargo to load the specified war-File?

Ok, I got it to work now.

As it seems, cargo silently ignores any snapshot dependencies. So you have to release a project before using it in a cargo-project.

Probably this is a bug. I can't imagine any sensible reason for this behaviour.

(also the pom-File I posted above was not correct, you have to adapt the changes that Robin suggests in his answer)

Try this. Set your configuration type to standalone and put the deployables in the configuration. Make sure the correct project dependency exists to resolve the war.

            <configuration>
                <type>standalone</type>
                <properties>
                    <cargo.servlet.port>7070</cargo.servlet.port>
                    <cargo.logging>high</cargo.logging>
                </properties>
                <deployables>
                    <deployable>
                        <groupId>com.group</groupId>
                        <type>war</type>
                        <artifactId>my-webapp</artifactId>
                        <properties>
                            <context>/path</context>
                        </properties>
                    </deployable>                           
                </deployables>                
             </configuration>           

Its seems it could work better if you first do the deployment say run a command "mvn cargo:deploy" then run a "mvn cargo:start"

If you just want to deploy on embedded Jetty, you may not need Cargo. Just use this, in your web-app's pom.xml:

  <build>
    ...
    ...
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
            <artifactId>jetty-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>7.2.2.v20101205</version>
            <configuration>
              <scanIntervalSeconds>10</scanIntervalSeconds>
              <webAppConfig>
                <contextPath>/path</contextPath>
              </webAppConfig>
              <connectors>
                <connector implementation="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector">
                  <port>7070</port>
                  <maxIdleTime>60000</maxIdleTime>
                </connector>
            </connectors>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
        ...
        ...
    </plugins>
    ...
    ...
  </build>

to build and start Jetty user

 mvn clean install jetty:run
