Generate DAR

DAR - Deployit Archive - is a new Maven packaging type. It allows to generate a Deployit deployment package with all the necessary deployables (artifacts and middleware resources) that compose the application and to gather all into an archive (.dar) that could be installed in a Maven repository and later imported into Deployit. The following example describes a package that contains:

• a war file - petclinic - defined as a maven dependency (groupId and artifactId, the version is defined in the dependency node)
• a war file - petclinic-backend - defined as a maven dependency
• an archive file - the driver jdbc mysql - defined as a maven dependency
• a configuration folder - configuration - defined using a location, the location/ is relative to the dar project.
• a package using a classifier
• a weblogic datasource - petclinicDS - with common static properties (jndiNames, driverName ...) and environment based properties (username, password}
