Howto tell maven to use timestamp when starting dependency:copy-dependencies goal?

I need to create an update site with SNAPSHOT-jars. I want to hold the old jars, so I need to have a unique name for every iteration of a snapshot lib, whic开发者_JS百科h means I need the timestamp.

First I get all jars from maven repositories by using a pom.xml including all jars as dependencies. After that I call mvn dependency:copy-dependencies .

The thing is, maven uses the name project-SNAPSHOT.jar instead of project-{timestamp}.jar. Is their a way to configure the dependency plugin?

thanks in advance

From this example, it looks like this can be achieved if you were to do dependency:copy instead of dependency:copy-dependencies. In this case, for each artifactItem you can specify a destFileName which can be in the format you want.
