I've forked Confluent's Kafka Connect HDFS writer and now I'd like to deploy a version of this jar to my local Nexus.

mvn clean deploy Works like a charm and deploys the jar.

https://[nexus]/repository/releases/io/confluent/kafka-connect-hdfs/5.0.0/kafka-connect-hdfs-5.0.0.jar

So far so good, but to make a distinction between the confluent versions and my own deployment I'd like to change the version of the build to something like 5.0.0-1 or so (preferably the tag name when pushed, but that's step 2)

The pom.xml is basically the same as the 5.0.0-post release, but here the most important parts:

    <parent>

        <groupId>io.confluent</groupId>

        <artifactId>kafka-connect-storage-common-parent</artifactId>

        <version>5.0.0</version>

    </parent>



    <artifactId>kafka-connect-hdfs</artifactId>

    <packaging>jar</packaging>

    <name>kafka-connect-hdfs</name>

    <organization>

        <name>Confluent, Inc.</name>

        <url>http://confluent.io</url>

    </organization>

<dependencies>

    <dependency>

        <groupId>io.confluent</groupId>

        <artifactId>kafka-connect-storage-common</artifactId>

        <version>${confluent.version}</version>

    </dependency>

    <dependency>

        <groupId>io.confluent</groupId>

        <artifactId>kafka-connect-storage-core</artifactId>

        <version>${confluent.version}</version>

    </dependency>

    ...

</dependencies>



<build>

    <plugins>

        <plugin>

            <groupId>io.confluent</groupId>

            <version>0.10.0</version>

            <artifactId>kafka-connect-maven-plugin</artifactId>

...

So first I added <version> tags to the pom.xml, but it started using that as the default for all confluent.version and complained that it couldn't find for example: https://[nexus]/repository/releases/io/confluent/kafka-connect-storage-hive/5.0.0-1/kafka-connect-storage-hive-5.0.0-1.pom

Next I tried the versions plugin from maven
mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=5.0.0-1 clean deploy

But that complained about the parent:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:versions-maven-plugin:2.7:set (default-cli) on project kafka-connect-hdfs: Project version is inherited from parent. -> [Help 1]

I don't even care if the version is 5.0.0 in the code, I just wat to deploy to a different version in our artifactory.

I'm not a maven expert, so maybe I'm missing some very basic clue, but all help is welcome.

You can specify the version with ${revision} parameter.

To do this, you need to add <version> tag with this variable in pom.xml:

<artifactId>kafka-connect-hdfs</artifactId>

<version>5.0.0-${revision}</version>

<packaging>jar</packaging>

And then provide it to the maven command. E.g.,
mvn clean package -Drevision=01 will generate kafka-connect-hdfs-5.0.0-01.jar file.
