[MWRAPPER-99] Support MAVEN_ARGS environment variable

[jira-importer]

Piotr Karwasz opened MWRAPPER-99 and commented

Starting with Maven 3.9.0 the mvn/mvn.cmd scripts support a MAVEN_ARGS environment variable that can be used to pass additional arguments to Maven (cf. documentation).

The (undocumented?) MAVEN_CONFIG variable plays the same role in the mvnw/mvnw.cmd scripts.

Maven Wrapper should probably switch to MAVEN_ARGS as variable name (maintaining backward compatibility).

Affects: 3.1.1

Issue Links:

• MWRAPPER-61 let mvnw call mvn directly, without maven-wrapper.jar

• MWRAPPER-125 Make "only-script" the default wrapper

• MWRAPPER-45 Migrate/Sync startup scripts with Maven 4

Instead of copy and paste items from Maven distribution script I would prefer to call directly scripts from distribution, like was implemented in: MWRAPPER-61

Since there is an only-script distribution now, this issue can probably be closed.

Since there is an only-script distribution now, this issue can probably be closed.

I cannot use only-script in Docker images like amazoncorretto:

./mvnw: line 256: tar: command not found
failed to untar

Distribution type source works, but with it MAVEN_ARGS is ignored, hence this issue I think.
