jvm_war

A JSR 154 "web application archive" (or "war") with first-party and third-party code bundled for deploys in Java Servlet containers.
Backend: <span style="color: purple"><code>pants.backend.experimental.java</code></span>
## <code>content</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>Iterable[str] | None</code></span>
<span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
A list of addresses to `resources` and `files` targets with content to place in the document root of this WAR file.
## <code>dependencies</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>Iterable[str] | None</code></span>
<span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
Addresses to other targets that this target depends on, e.g. ['helloworld/subdir:lib', 'helloworld/main.py:lib', '3rdparty:reqs#django'].
This augments any dependencies inferred by Pants, such as by analyzing your imports. Use `./pants dependencies` or `./pants peek` on this target to get the final result.
See [Targets and BUILD files](🔗﻿) and [Targets and BUILD files](🔗﻿) for more about how addresses are formed, including for generated targets. You can also run `./pants list ::` to find all addresses in your project, or `./pants list dir:` to find all addresses defined in that directory.
If the target is in the same BUILD file, you can leave off the BUILD file path, e.g. `:tgt` instead of `helloworld/subdir:tgt`. For generated first-party addresses, use `./` for the file path, e.g. `./main.py:tgt`; for all other generated targets, use `:tgt#generated_name`.
You may exclude dependencies by prefixing with `!`, e.g. `['!helloworld/subdir:lib', '!./sibling.txt']`. Ignores are intended for false positives with dependency inference; otherwise, simply leave off the dependency from the BUILD file.
## <code>description</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str | None</code></span>
<span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
A human-readable description of the target.
Use `./pants list --documented ::` to see all targets with descriptions.
## <code>descriptor</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str</code></span>
<span style="color: green">required</span>
Path to a file containing the descriptor (i.e., web.xml) for this WAR file. Defaults to `web.xml`.
## <code>output_path</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str | None</code></span>
<span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
Where the built asset should be located.
If undefined, this will use the path to the BUILD file, followed by the target name. For example, `src/python/project:app` would be `src.python.project/app.ext`.
When running `./pants package`, this path will be prefixed by `--distdir` (e.g. `dist/`).
Warning: setting this value risks naming collisions with other package targets you may have.
## <code>resolve</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str | None</code></span>
<span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
The resolve from `[jvm].resolves` to use when compiling this target.
If not defined, will default to `[jvm].default_resolve`.
## <code>tags</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>Iterable[str] | None</code></span>
<span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
Arbitrary strings to describe a target.
For example, you may tag some test targets with 'integration_test' so that you could run `./pants --tag='integration_test' test ::` to only run on targets with that tag.
