Making maven copy additional files inside the build jar (not resources but any file inside any package)?

Question

I have a package org.myapp.mypackage with some ruby files (*.rb) and I need to include them in the generated build jar in the same package

Answer 1

You can modify the resources section of the bit of the POM:

  
    src/main/resources
  
  
    false
    src/main/java
    
      *.rb
    
    
      **/*.java
    
  

Or, the other answer (create the same package structure in src/main/resources) will also work.
