In [FORGE-1787] the parameter {{webroot}} seems confusing. Maybe we could change it to targetDir like other command, or something different (as it refer to a subdirectory of web app.

agoncal  And what about targetPackage ? What I really want is a --webroot (like the scaffold command) no ?
lincolnthree  agoncal: targetDir ?
agoncal  lincolnthree Hum... it's called --webroot on other places (which is the relative webapp/ directory)
lincolnthree  agoncal: but it's not the webroot dir in this case
lincolnthree  agoncal: it's the target directory where the file will be generated
gastaldi  +1 to targetDir
lincolnthree  agoncal: doesn't have to be in the web root, but could default there
lincolnthree  or even just target
agoncal  lincolnthree But by default it's under /webapp if you don't specify it. If you do (eg. --webroot admin) then the file is generated under /webapp/admin
agoncal  I'm refering to webroot because it looks the same as FORGE-1787
lincolnthree  agoncal: totally different
agoncal  lincolnthree ok
lincolnthree  agoncal: well.. maybe not totally :p
lincolnthree  agoncal: webroot is a bad name for that
agoncal  lincolnthree I'll go for for targetDir
agoncal  lincolnthree Do you want me to create a JIRA about renaming webroot to targetDir ?
lincolnthree  agoncal: why not skip targetDir entirely and just go for —output
lincolnthree  agoncal: yeah we may want to address this
lincolnthree  output would be target dir and filename together
