Has anyone used the docker-maven-plugin?

The one from Spotify? Yes we used it at work, but the maintainers have discontinued support and they suggest to use this one instead: https://github.com/spotify/dockerfile-maven
The difference between the two is that docker-maven-plugin is configured through XML like most plugins, it generates a Dockerfile, copies artifacts and builds an image; on the other side dockerfile-maven is simpler because it reads an existing Dockerfile and just builds and pushes the image, depending on the phase you invoked.

my prior company had migrated fro m the spotify one to the fabric8io one before the spotify one was discontinued, and was able to get it to work quite nicely for the needs at the time
