Maven Commands List PDF

javaguides.net/2018/12/maven-commands-list-pdf.html

In this post gives you all the useful maven commands used in maven applications.

1. Create Maven Projects

Create a Java project


mvn archetype:generate
-DgroupId=org.yourcompany.project
-DartifactId=application

Create a web project

mvn archetype:generate
-DgroupId=org.yourcompany.project
-DartifactId=application
-DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp

Create archetype from an existing project

mvn archetype:create-from-project

2. Main phases
clean — delete target directory
validate — validate, if the project is correct
compile — compile source code, classes stored in target/classes
test — run tests
package — take the compiled code and package it in its distributable format, e.g. JAR,
WAR
verify — run any checks to verify the package is valid and meets quality criteria
install — install the package into the local repository

deploy — copies the final package to the remote repository

3. Maven phase commands(Project Build Commands)


clean project: will delete target directory

mvn clean

1/4
validate project: validate the project is correct and all necessary information is available

mvn validate

compile project: compile source code, classes stored in target/classes

mvn compile

test project: run tests using a suitable unit testing framework

mvn test

package project: take the compiled code and package it in its distributable format, such as a
JAR /WAR

mvn package

verify project: run any checks to verify the package is valid and meets quality criteria

mvn verify

install project: install the package into the local repository, for use as a dependency in other
projects locally

mvn install

deploy project: done in an integration or release environment, copies the final package to the
remote repository for sharing with other developers and projects

mvn deploy

Skip running tests


Compiles the tests, but skips running them.

mvn install -DskipTests=true

Skips compiling the tests and does not run them.

mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip=true

4. Project Site Generation


Generate site without tests reports (tests are not executed):

mvn site:site

Generate site with unit tests reports:

mvn test site:site

Generate site with unit and integration tests reports:

2/4
mvn verify site:site

5. Code quality analysis


Analyze code quality with Sonar:

mvn clean install -DskipTests=true


mvn sonar:sonar

Read Sonar configuration guide.

6. Code coverage reporting


Notice:

It is much more feasible to generate code coverage reports directly from IDE than from Maven.
Write test, write code, run coverage for separated test, and check that all important branches are
covered.

Generate Clover reports for unit tests:

mvn clover2:setup test clover2:aggregate clover2:clover

Generate clover reports for unit and integration tests:

mvn clover2:setup verify clover2:aggregate clover2:clover

Read Clover configuration guide.

7. Dependency Management
Check dependencies for newer versions:

mvn versions:display-dependency-updates

Check plugins for newer versions:

mvn versions:display-plugin-updates

Check for newer versions defined as properties:

mvn versions:display-property-updates

Display project dependencies:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze project dependencies:

mvn dependency:analyze

3/4
8. Getting Help
Display effective Maven settings:

mvn help:effective-settings

Display effective POM:

mvn help:effective-pom

Display all profiles (from settings.xml and POMs hierarchy):

mvn help:active-profiles

Display plugin goals (for m-compiler-p in the example below):

mvn compiler:help

Display plugin's goal description (for goal compile in m-compiler-p in the example below):

mvn compiler:help -Dgoal=compile -Ddetail

Help plugin — used to get relative information about a project or the system.
mvn help:describe describes the attributes of a plugin
mvn help:effective-pom displays the effective POM as an XML for the current build, with
the active profiles factored in. Dependency plugin — provides the capability to
manipulate artifacts.
mvn dependency:analyze analyzes the dependencies of this project
mvn dependency:tree prints a tree of dependencies Compiler plugin — compiles your
java code. Set language level with the following configuration:

<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</
artifactId>
<version>3.6.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.8</source>
<target>1.8</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
