[java] Maven: How to rename the war file for the project?

I have a project bird with following components in pom.xml

   <groupId>com.myorg</groupId>
    <artifactId>bird</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <packaging>pom</packaging>
    <name>bird</name>

    <modules>
        <module>persistence</module>
        <module>business</module>
        <module>service</module>
        <module>web</module>
    </modules>

and the web module as

   <parent>
        <artifactId>bird</artifactId>
        <groupId>com.myorg</groupId>
        <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </parent>

    <artifactId>web</artifactId>
    <packaging>war</packaging>  

web module creates the war file named web-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war
How can I, using maven rename this to bird.war?

You can follow the below step to modify the .war file name if you are using maven project.

Open pom.xml file of your maven project and go to the tag <build></build>,

1. In that give your desired name between this tag : <finalName></finalName>.

   ex. : <finalName>krutik</finalName>

   After deploying this .war you will be able to access url with:
   http://localhost:8080/krutik/

2. If you want to access the url with slash '/' then you will have to specify then name as below:

   e.x. : <finalName>krutik#maheta</finalName>

   After deploying this .war you will be able to access url with:
   http://localhost:8080/krutik/maheta

You need to configure the war plugin:

<project>
  ...
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.3</version>
        <configuration>
          <warName>bird.war</warName>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
  ...
</project>

More info here

Lookup pom.xml > project tag > build tag.

I would like solution below.

<artifactId>bird</artifactId>
<name>bird</name>

<build>
    ...
    <finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
  OR
    <finalName>${project.name}</finalName>
    ...
</build>

Worked for me. ^^
