Run a script after maven install

Use the http://www.mojohaus.org/exec-maven-plugin/ exec-maven-plugin, in conjunction with an "executions" configuration block that specifies the installation phase. Make sure it is after your maven-install-plugin as plugins are ran in order (within the same phase)

(in build/plugins)    <plugin>    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>    <artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>    <version>2.5.2</version>  </plugin>  <plugin>    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>    <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>    <version>1.5.0</version>    <executions>      <execution>        <phase>install</phase>        <goals>           <goal>exec</goal>        </goals>        <configuration>          <executable>do-something.sh</executable>          <workingDirectory>/some/dir</workingDirectory>          <arguments>             <argument>--debug</argument>             <argument>with_great_effect</argument>          </arguments>        </configuration>      </execution>    </executions>  </plugin>

For a purely maven-driven approach, the answer you're looking for is the exec goal of exec-maven-plugin, and this answer applies: https://stackoverflow.com/a/2008258/3403663

EDIT: OP indicates the above doesn't work for him.

Alternative approach: I just tried the following in my own project, and it executes ls at the very end of the install phase, after artifacts have been deployed.

mvn clean install exec:exec -Dexec.executable="/bin/ls" -Dexec.args="/etc"

Otherwise, you could always just wrap the whole thing in a script:

#!/bin/bashset -o errexitmvn clean install<your other commands here>

Why can't you do something like this? This will go after the normal maven install phase.

EDIT: If you add the maven-install-plugin before it, maven will run each in the order they are in the pom.
