[overlord-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ARTIF-732) Allow nested artifact expansion

[Brett Meyer (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARTIF-732?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Brett Meyer updated ARTIF-732:
------------------------------
    Description: 
Ex: A distro ZIP that contains multiple WARs.  1.) Do we want to allow those WARs to become primary artifacts?  Currently, nested archives are not supported -- they'll be ignored.  2.) If yes to #1, any restrictions, or should that happen by default?  3.)  If yes to #1, should those nested archives also be expanded themselves?

My gut says "no" to all of them.  But, if someone has a reason why nested archives should be supported, I'm all ears.

  was:Ex: Upload a dist ZIP which contains two WARs.  Currently, the root ZIP will be the "expandedFromArchive" target for all artifacts, even the artifacts expanded from the WARs.  Instead, ArtifactServiceImpl#upload should allow nested expansion, where each level of "expandedFromArchive" relationship creates an expansion chain.
