Apache Maven
|
|
|
|
What is it?
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on
|
|
the concept of a Project Object Model (POM), Maven can manage a project's
|
|
build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.

System Requirements
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
JDK:
|
|
1.6 or above (this is to execute Maven - it still allows you to build against 1.3
|
|
and prior JDK's).
|
|
Memory:
|
|
No minimum requirement.
|
|
Disk:
|
|
Approximately 10MB is required for the Maven installation itself. In addition to
|
|
that, additional disk space will be used for your local Maven repository. The size
|
|
of your local repository will vary depending on usage but expect at least 500MB.
|
|
Operating System:
|
|
No minimum requirement. Start up scripts are included as shell scripts and Windows
|
|
batch files.
|
|
|
|
Installing Maven
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
1) Unpack the archive where you would like to store the binaries, eg:
|
|
|
|
Unix-based operating systems (Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X)
|
|
tar zxvf apache-maven-3.x.y.tar.gz
|
|
Windows
|
|
unzip apache-maven-3.x.y.zip
|
|
|
|
2) A directory called "apache-maven-3.x.y" will be created.
|
|
|
|
3) Add the bin directory to your PATH, eg:
|
|
|
|
Unix-based operating systems (Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X)
|
|
export PATH=/usr/local/apache-maven-3.x.y/bin:$PATH
|
|
Windows
|
|
set PATH="c:\program files\apache-maven-3.x.y\bin";%PATH%
|
|
|
|
4) Make sure JAVA_HOME is set to the location of your JDK
|
|
|
|
5) Run "mvn --version" to verify that it is correctly installed.
