Spring Boot and ebextensions

Question

I\'m trying to add an .ebextensions folder to the root level of my jar to be deployed to AWS elastic beanstalk.

My folder structure is:

main:
--src
--re

This works for me, is the cleanest way (in maven) I found to solve this:

Add .ebextensions in the root of your project and add this snippet at the end in the plugins section:

            org.apache.maven.plugins
            maven-antrun-plugin
            1.6
            
                
                    prepare
                    package
                    
                        
                            
                            
                                
                            
                            
                        
                    
                    
                        run
                    
                
            
        

This plugin use ant to unzip the final jar generated by spring boot, copy the .ebextensions in the root and zip (jar) again with the same name. Tested and working in production :)

Works with Spring 1.5.3.RELEASE
