Changing WAR or adding time stamp to your war name for maven supported project

Changing names for a maven project can be done in one to the two ways.

Easy fix:

The war name is same as artifact ID

    <groupId>com</groupId>
    <artifactId>ABC</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT    </version>
    <packaging>war</packaging>

will generate ABC.WAR in target specified folder


Other way:

So in this senario I also want to attach dynamically generated timestamp to my war

We will need to install plugin to generate time stamp as we want
 

           <build>
                <finalName>
                        ${project.artifactId}-${project.version}-${timestamp}
                </finalName>
                <plugins>
                    <plugin>
                        <groupId>
                            com.keyboardsamurais.maven
                        </groupId>
                        <artifactId>
                            maven-timestamp-plugin
                        </artifactId>
                        <version>
                            1.0
                        </version>
                        <configuration>
                            <propertyName>
                                timestamp
                            </propertyName>
                            <timestampPattern>
                                    dd.MM.yyyy HH.mm
                            </timestampPattern>
                        </configuration>
                        <executions>
                            <execution>
                                <goals>
                                    <goal>
                                        create
                                    </goal>
                                </goals>
                            </execution>
                        </executions>
                    </plugin>
                </plugins>
            </build>

Should output: ABC-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-07.01.2013 11.54.war
