Option to upload artifact only or multiple file/classifier upload

[agubler]

Can an option be added to support upload of the artifact only? The scenario is that I have two files to upload one with a classifier. In releases repository the overwrite option is set to false so therefore trying to upload the pom files causes a 400 http response?

Or could add additional functionality to upload multiple files/classifier for a single version/group/artifact?

I worked around the problem in my fork, by adding an option that controls meta-data upload. Then in my build file, I have multiple upload configurations, one for each classifier, but only the first one uploads the metadata, avoiding conflicts in my release repository (Hosted in Nexus). I also revised SNAPSHOT support. I'll ping the project owner to see if he'd accept a pull request.

Example config:

        nexusDeployer: {
            options: {
                auth: {
                    username:'user',
                    password:'password'
                },
                groupId: 'org.example.project',
                artifactId: '<%= pkg.name %>',
                version: '<%= mavenVersion %>',
                buildNumber: '<%= buildNumber %>',
                buildTime: '<%= buildTime %>',
                packaging: 'zip',
                pomDir: 'dist/pom',
                url: '<%= publishUrl %>'
            },
            debug: {
                options: {
                    classifier: 'debug',
                    uploadMetadata: true, // Since this is done first, upload the metadata here
                    artifact: 'dist/<%=pkg.name%>-<%= pkg.version %>-debug.zip'
                }
            },
            release: {
                options: {
                    classifier: '',
                    uploadMetadata: false, // But skip it here, to prevent errors when publishing to a release repo
                    artifact: 'dist/<%=pkg.name%>-<%= pkg.version %>.zip'
                }
            }
