Mappings are not contained in JDKPackager bundles

[smoes]

When creating bundles with JDKPackager (tried for .app, .dmg and .pkg on OSX), resources defined in mappings, defined as follows, are not included in the final bundle:

// Tried also 'in JDKPackager'
mappings in Universal ++= {
      val configDir = sourceDirectory.value/"main"/"resources"
      for {
        file <- (configDir ** AllPassFilter).get
        relative <- file.relativeTo(configDir.getParentFile)
        mapping = file -> relative.getPath
      } yield mapping
    }

Since there is no key in com.typesafe.sbt.packager.jdkpackager.JDKPackagerKeys for fx:resource I assumed resource mapping should be inherited from Universal plugin. However, created bundles do not contain the specified resources directory. Is there another way to achieve that?

Hi @smoes , thanks for your report.

I assumed resource mapping should be inherited from Universal plugin

This should indeed be the case. Can you tell us which native-packager version you are using?

Another thing you could try (and can use for convenience) are the mappings helper.

import NativePackagerHelper._
mappings in Universal ++= contentOf(resourceDirectory.value)

I am using native-packager version 1.1.0-RC1.
The proposed snippets does not solve the problem.

To be clear: The defined files/folders are just not present in the resulting bundle itself but appear in target/jdkpackager

Take this with a grain of salt, as it's been a while since I've looked into it, but the javapackager API itself does not provide a clear way of delivering additional files with your .dmg or .pkg image. It's possible to get things located inside the .app bundle, but that's usually not what you want. On Windows javapackager has more flexibility, but I can't remember if it requires an override of the WiX/Inno files, or if it just "does the right thing".

One thing that would help get us toward a solution would be a scripted test to build a solution against.
