This extension will activate if a maven-deploy-plugin and altDeploymentRepository have been specified.
If it has, then it will examine the value for altDeploymentRepository and convert it to the correct form
for the plugin version in use.
It will search for altDeploymentRepository in the following locations:
- Project properties
- User properties
- System Properties
- Settings file properties
If the deployment plugin version is >= 3.0.0-M1 it uses:
id::url
otherwise (e.g. for 2.8) it uses
id::layout::url
(where layout defaults to default).
This has been tested with Maven 3.2.2 to 3.9.0.
It is recommended to install in your Maven lib/ext directory. Binary releases can be obtained from Maven Central here and snapshots from here.
There is no configuration required for this plugin. It can be disabled by setting altdeploy.extension.disable to true.
