What is Maven?
Maven is a project management tool which encompasses a project object model, a

set of standards, a project lifecycle, a dependency management system, and logic
for executing plugin goals at defined phases in a life cycle.
When you use Maven, you describe your project using a well-defined project object
model, Maven can then apply cross-cutting logic from a set of shared (or custom)
plugins.
3
Convention over Configuration
Maven is an attempt to apply patterns to a project's build infrastructure in order to

promote comprehension and productivity by providing a clear path in the use of best
practices.
4
What does Maven do?
● Maven is essentially a project management and comprehension tool and as such

provides a way to help with managing:
○ Builds
○ Documentation
○ Reporting
○ Dependencies
○ SCMs (Software configuration management)
○ Releases
○ Distribution
5
Installation
Maven comes pre-bundled in Eclipse
To use it independently:
● Download from https://maven.apache.org/download.html

● Follow the instructions in https://maven.apache.org/download.html#Installation
6
Creating a Project
mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app

-DartifactId=my-app
-DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart
-DinteractiveMode=false
An archetype is defined as an original pattern or model from which all other things of
the same kind are made

Archetypes (predefined)

A SNAPSHOT version is the 'development'

version before the final 'release' version.
The SNAPSHOT is "older" than its release.

Dependencies

Build Lifecycles
Lifecycle = ordered sequence of phases.
There are three built-in build lifecycles: default, clean and site.
● The default lifecycle handles your project deployment,

● the clean life cycle handles project cleaning,
● while the site lifecycle handles the creation of your project's site documentation.
13
Default lifecycle common phases
● validate - validate the project is correct and all necessary information is available
● compile - compile the source code of the project
● test - test the compiled source code using a suitable unit testing framework. These
tests should not require the code be packaged or deployed
● package - take the compiled code and package it in its distributable format, such as a
JAR.
● verify - run any checks on results of integration tests to ensure quality criteria are met
● install - install the package into the local repository, for use as a dependency in other
projects locally
● deploy - done in the build environment, copies the final package to the remote
repository for sharing with other developers and projects

How do I create a JAR…
...and install it in my local repository?
17
Plugins
Maven is - at its heart - a plugin execution
framework; all work is done by plugins.
Build plugins will be executed during the build and

they should be configured in the <build/> element
from the POM.
Reporting plugins will be executed during the site

generation and they should be configured in the
<reporting/> element from the POM.
*configure the Java compiler to allow JDK 5.0 sources.
https://maven.apache.org/plugins/
18
Filtering
Sometimes a resource file will need to contain a value that can only be supplied at build
time. To accomplish this in Maven, put a reference to the property that will contain the
value into your resource file using the syntax ${<property name>}
Path of file: src/main/resources/application.properties
