maven-assembly-plugin如何过滤掉整个目录？

Question

My distribution file is like below. I want create a public and logs folder under my project root folder (${basedir}) and package them to a zip file. Now, my problem is that all files (for example, 1.log, 2.log) under public and logs folders are not packaged into zip file, but all directories under public and logs folders are packaged into the zip file.

How to filter out the directories too? I just want to create a empty pubic and logs folder in my zip file.

   <fileSets>
        <fileSet>
            <directory>${basedir}\src\main\bin</directory>
            <outputDirectory>\bin</outputDirectory>
            <includes>
                <include>*.sh</include>
                <include>*.bat</include>
            </includes>
        </fileSet>
        <fileSet>
            <directory>${basedir}\logs</directory>
            <excludes>
                <exclude>**/*.*</exclude>
            </excludes>
            <outputDirectory>\logs</outputDirectory>
        </fileSet>
        <fileSet>
            <directory>${basedir}\public\</directory>
            <excludes>
                <exclude>**/*.*</exclude>
            </excludes>
            <outputDirectory>\public</outputDirectory>
        </fileSet>
    </fileSets>

Answer 1

The regular expression you provided:

<exclude>**/*.*</exclude>

will only match files in the directory that have format XY That is, each one must include a '.' and have an extension. Presumably the subdirectories do not have this format. So, add another line to each section:

<exclude>**/*</exclude>

I think that will do it. The Ant directory task documentation includes some helpful examples.
