Create file or set file modification time.
Plugin
Plugin reports available at plugin info.
There is a single goal: touch, which does not have a default bound phase. This goal modifies the timestamp of all files matching the FileSet specification. The FileSet includes and excludes support posix style globs
Any FileSet include which is not a glob will force creation of the necessary directories and create a zero byte file.
Configuration
| Parameter | Property | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| skipTouch | ${touch.skip} | false | Skip modifying file timestamps |
| files | The fileset to update last modification time | ||
| modificationTime | The timestamp. Either a positive integer of number of seconds since the Unix Epoch, or an ISO8601 zoned date time |
