Modello Maven Plugin – Example of multi-model configuration

Processing Multiple Modello Models

Configuring your pom.xml

You can use the following configuration in your pom.xml to have the Modello Plugin take two of your models into account (this configuration is taken from the maven-assembly-plugin which indeed uses two different models).
