For my current deployment process I use glassfish and this trick, which works very nicely.

            org.codehaus.mojo
            exec-maven-plugin
            ${plugin.exec.version}
            
                
                    docker
                    package
                    
                        exec
                    
                
            
            
                docker
                
                    cp
                    ${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}
                    glassfish:/glassfish4/glassfish/domains/domain1/autodeploy
                
            
        

Once you run: mvn clean package, the containers kicks-in and starts deployment of the latest war.
