At the moment you can only create the final WAR artifact when using the WAR plugin. It would be great if it could also provide a new task (e.g. warExploded) that would create an exploded webapp in a specified directory (of course would have a default). Basically, the directory would hold the exploded contents of the WAR. This especially could come in handy when building custom plugins that define tasks dependent on the final webapp structure. |

A good idea. Rather than something specific to the WAR plugin, we might instead add a task rule called 'exploded<ArchiveTaskName>' which creates an exploded version of <ArchiveTaskName>. This way you can use 'explodedWar' to create the exploded WAR, or 'explodedJar' or 'explodedMyCustomTar'. As a work around, you can do something like: task explodedWar(type: Sync) {
into "$buildDir/explodedWar'
with war
}

Perfect, a generic way to do this would be even better. |

It's easy enough to add that to any build that needs it. No further action. |
