mvn clean install fabric8:run can result in docker build running twice

I’ve things like this do 2 builds (which can take a long time)

mvn clean install fabric8:run

I wonder if fabric8:build should check if its been invoked already and not rerun itself?

I guess spring-boot:run just invokes the test-compile goal

I wonder if we should avoid the forking of Install - making folks have to type:

mvn install fabric8:run

Was just wondering if we could make the forking of the install goal conditional on the install goal being already invoked or not to avoid the double-invoke issue

I don’t think this can be easily fixed and we are currently on the way to make goals independent and do not look up whether they are called together with other goals.

As I suppose that’s an intrinsic Maven issue, I’m going to close this.
