Hello All,
While working on the Maven deployment plugin we've been contemplating what the goals
should be named. Currently we have 4 goals; deploy, deploy-or-redeploy, redeploy and
undeploy.
We kind of feel deploy-or-redeploy will be the default most people would use. It seems a
little verbose for the default. I've thought about making deploy act as the
deploy-or-redeploy,
I'm for making deploy-or-redeploy the "default" - i.e. the deploy goal.
but I'm a bit concerned that users will assume it will fail if
the deployment already exists.
Something I mean to ask was why users would assume this? Because this is the way deploy
works in the AS7 deployment API?
So my question to the lot of you is how would you interpret these goals and can you think
of some better names? Mainly a replacement for deploy-or-redeploy, but any other
suggestions are welcome.
Currently as a replacement for deploy-or-redeploy we have always-deploy and
force-deploy.
Thanks in advance,
