The Maven tool is a powerful project management tool. Effective use of Maven will greatly improve the efficiency of code production.
Install Maven
Go to the https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi website, because I am a windows system, and I downloaded bin.zip. After the download is complete, decompress it to the specified directory. After decompression, the document structure is as follows:
--bin: Save the executable commands of Maven, mvn and mvn.bat are the commands to execute the Maven tool.
--boot: This directory contains only one plexus-classworlds-2.5.2.jar, plexus-classworlds-2.5.2.jar is a class loading framework.
--conf: The directory where Maven configuration files are kept, this directory contains the setting.xml file, which is used to set the global behavior of Maven.
--lib: This directory contains all the class libraries required for Maven to run, and also contains third-party class libraries that Maven depends on.
--LICENSE, README.txt and other documentation.
Configure Maven
Maven needs to configure the following two environment variables:
JAVA_HOME: This environment variable points to the JDK installation path.
MAVEN_HOME: This environment variable points to the MAVEN installation path.
It is best to add it to the PATH environment variable: PATH: ;%MAVEN_HOME%\bin;
an examination
After the installation and configuration is complete, execute the mvn -v command on the command line, and the following results will be output:
C:\Users\wpx>mvn -v
