• It is a much later version than the upgrade the version fix found in this question
• the plugin is in the submodule pom rather than the parent pom as is the mistake here
• and I have tried removing <packaging>jar</packaging> to no avail.

What does maven-shade-plugin need to successfully create the shaded jar?

EDIT: setting minimizeJar to false solves my problem, but why? Is there a better way, or a way to get the benefits of a minimised jar?

Answer 1

You can now use the latest release maven-shade-plugin:3.2.0 as of 13.09.2018 which shall solve the error while using minimizeJar (with JDK8+) :

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>3.2.0</version>
</plugin>

Answer 2

正如编辑中所说，将minimizeJar 设置为false 解决了我的问题。

Answer 3

Please take a look at this tutorial from Maven: https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/usage.html

The configuration of the plugin changed a bit over past and you don't need to specify the transformations.

An example looks like this for 3.2.1:

<project>
  ...
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.2.1</version>
        <configuration>
          <!-- put your configurations here -->
        </configuration>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>shade</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
  ...
</project>
