maven-hello-world's Introduction

A simple, minimal Maven example: hello world

To create the files in this git repo we've already run mvn archetype:generate from http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html

mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.myapp.app -DartifactId=myapp -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart -DarchetypeVersion=1.4 -DinteractiveMode=false

Now, to print "Hello World!", type either...

cd myapp
mvn compile
java -cp target/classes com.myapp.app.App

or...

cd myapp
mvn package
java -cp target/myapp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar com.myapp.app.App

Running mvn clean will get us back to only the source Java and the pom.xml:

murphy:myapp pdurbin$ mvn clean --quiet
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ ack -a -f
pom.xml
src/main/java/com/myapp/app/App.java
src/test/java/com/myapp/app/AppTest.java

Running mvn compile produces a class file:

murphy:myapp pdurbin$ mvn compile --quiet
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ ack -a -f
pom.xml
src/main/java/com/myapp/app/App.java
src/test/java/com/myapp/app/AppTest.java
target/classes/com/myapp/app/App.class
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ 
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ java -cp target/classes com.myapp.app.App
Hello World!

Running mvn package does a compile and creates the target directory, including a jar:

murphy:myapp pdurbin$ mvn clean --quiet
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ mvn package > /dev/null
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ ack -a -f
pom.xml
src/main/java/com/myapp/app/App.java
src/test/java/com/myapp/app/AppTest.java
target/classes/com/myapp/app/App.class
target/maven-archiver/pom.properties
target/myapp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
target/surefire-reports/com.myapp.app.AppTest.txt
target/surefire-reports/TEST-com.myapp.app.AppTest.xml
target/test-classes/com/myapp/app/AppTest.class
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ 
murphy:myapp pdurbin$ java -cp target/myapp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar com.myapp.app.App
Hello World!

Running mvn clean compile exec:java requires http://mojo.codehaus.org/exec-maven-plugin/

Running java -jar target/myapp-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar requires http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/

Runnable Jar:

JAR Plugin The Maven’s jar plugin will create jar file and we need to define the main class that will get executed when we run the jar file.

<plugin>
  <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>3.0.2</version>
  <configuration>
    <archive>
      <manifest>
        <addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
        <mainClass>com.myapp.App</mainClass>
      </manifest>
    </archive>
  </configuration>
</plugin>
