Multi-module Maven project and jetty:run

Question

I\'m trying to split a Maven WAR project into two modules, so that I can build a separate JAR file with command line tools. The result has the following structure:

Answer 1

Add jetty plugin to the root pom and configure a contextHandler pointing to the desired war. This works for me in a project with multiple jar modules and two overlay wars.

org.eclipse.jetty
jetty-maven-plugin
9.3.0.M2

        10
        
            
                ${project.basedir}/project-war/target/project-war-${project.version}.war
                /
