Adding all files from a directory to an archive

[htfv]

Hello World!

I want to add a bunch of files from a directory in my project to the deployed archive, but I coudn't find any simple way to do it. In my case, I want to deploy a bunch of JSP's for testing as Web resources, but I can imagine that people may want package resources in JAR as well. Currently, I use addAsWebResource, but there are 2 things that I don't like about it:

• I have to list every file I want to deploy;
• ClassLoader is used to load resources (I think both points are somehow related )).

Am I missing something? Or is there really no way to simply add all files from a directory?

In the later ShrinkWrap versions you can do

addAsWebReosurce(new FIle("some directory"))

that should recursivly add the directory content..

It does not work. I checked ShrinkWraps source - File is simply wrapped (without any extra checks) in FileAsset which may return only one stream. Also, addAsWebResource for directory is strange, I would expect addAsWebResources (plural).

This worked for me :

WebArchive war = ShrinkWrap.create(WebArchive.class)

                .addPackages(true, "test")

                .addAsResource("test-persistence", ArchivePaths.create("META-INF/persistence"))

                .setWebXML(new StringAsset(webXml.contextParam(

                                ProjectStage.PROJECT_STAGE_PARAM_NAME,

                                ProjectStage.Development).exportAsString()))

                .as(ExplodedImporter.class)

                .importDirectory("src/main/webapp")

                .as(WebArchive.class);

Which shrinkwrap and arquillian version are you using?
