use maven project information in resource files

I have directory structure like

.
├── pom.xml
└── src
    └── main
        ├── java
        │   └──
        └── resources
            └── plugin.yml

Of course in the pom.xml itself I can get the project version using ${project.version}, but I wonder if there's a way to inject this number into the plugin.yml file, its contents are:

name: PluginName
version: ${project.version}
description: Does plugin things

Is there a way to get maven to fill the version: value with the actual version of the project when it's built?

Check first if the filtering capabilities of maven are enough.
See "Apache Maven Resources Plugin/ Filtering"

Inside of <build> add

<resources>
  <resource>
    <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
    <filtering>true</filtering>
    <includes>
      <include>plugin.yml</include>
    </includes>
  </resource>
</resources>

Then you can use ${...} variables in the src/main/resources/plugin.yml file.
