在 Maven 多模块项目中，如何在一个孩子上运行完整构建并运行特定插件？

Question

I have a multi-project maven project. One child only has a specific plugin and I want it to be optional (so not bound to a specific phase). How can I run a full clean install on the entire project and additionally run a project's specific plugin?

I've encountered this post but it looks like an overkill, and it is not so easy in my specific case.

Your best option is to use maven build profiles .

In example, use this snippet in child module:

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>only-in-child-module</id>
        <activation>
            <activeByDefault>false</activeByDefault>
        </activation>
        <build>
            <plugins>
                ....
            </plugins>
        </build>
    </profile>
</profiles>

This build profile will not be active unless you explicitly ask maven for it like:

mvn clean install -Ponly-in-child-module
