Nov 05, 2013  Since Lion 10.7.1 10.6.8 MacOSx Snow Leopard (correct me if wrong), Mac OS X comes with Apache Maven 3 built in, and can be located at /usr/share/maven. Maven Built-In. To verify the Maven installation, in terminal, issue the command mvn -version. I did not know it could be this hard to install Maven. I've installed Maven a bunch of times already but never before on a Mac. It took me about 1 hour! Here is what you need to do: Download the apache-maven.tar.gz. If you follow the link on the maven download page both Firefox and Safari will get an html page but save it as a tar file.

Maven allows use of a central maven repository. The pom.xml (Project Object Model) file describes project dependencies which Maven resolves by downloading them. NOTE: Some prefer to install and use the Cargo plugin (from Codehaus) to Maven in order to eliminate use of pom.xml. The Maven installation is essentially a set of JAR files, configuration files, and a Mac OS X shell script, namely mvn. The mvn command essentially runs this script. It first checks for JAVAHOME.This file is present in the bin folder of the Maven installation and, hence, it needs to be in PATH. If the shell script does not find JAVAHOME, it looks for Java in its PATH.

for Java, Jenkins, etc.

  • Install latest
  • Using Maven

This describes how to install Maven using Homebrew, the configure and use it.

Maven is a task runnner, like Ant, Gradle, Grunt.

Ant was originally created (using Java) to replace the make utility for cross-platform use. With Ant, everything needs to be coded explictly in XML. Its files are difficult to reuse.

Unlike Ant, Maven also provides dependency management, standard project layout, and project management.

Mated with Java

Maven is written in Java, and grew up supporting Java buildsby creating from Java source and resources for deploymentdeliverables like JAR file or WAR files.

Default in Jenkins

Maven is the default build tool in the Jenkins continuous integration tool to perform builds when code is committed.

Unlike shell script procedural code, Maven files enable declarative statements.

Maven adopts the principle of “Convention over configuration”, which means less coding work. However, it operates as a “black box”.

Install latest

PROTIP: Rather than downloading directly from https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi, use a package manager.

  1. To install the latest version on MacOS:

    the response I got on Dec 29, 2017:

    Install previous version

    Alternately, to install a previous version:

    Then, to switch among versions:

    Configure Path

  2. Verify install:

    I got this response:

  3. Confirm the path:

    response:

    NOTE: Before OSX Mavericks,Maven was installed by default in:
    /usr/share/maven/bin/mvn

  4. Confirm the path. Substitute the version (3.5.2) with the versionyou just installed:

    mvn files should be listed:

  5. Open using a text editor, substituting subl (for Sublime) with atom or vim:

  6. Add the following to under export PATH=, changing the version (3.5.2) to whatever appears above:

    On Windows, define enviornment variable M2_HOME with a path such as:

    Within enviornment variable PATH, add:

  7. View changed environment variables. On a Mac:

    The response if installed by Homebrew on Mac:
    /usr/local/Cellar/maven/3.5.2/libexec

    The response if installed by Homebrew on Mac:
    /usr/local/Cellar/maven/3.5.2/libexec/bin

    On Windows:

  8. In a Terminal, verify changes:

    The reply is, for example:

Change Default Configurations

  1. Navigate to the hidden folder Maven installedto house packages installed (junit, commons-cli, commons-lang, etc).

    Some prefer to change Maven’s local repository to another location.

    See https://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-configuring-maven.html

    There is a settings.xml file containing:

Using Maven

Maven allows use of a central maven repository.

The pom.xml (Project Object Model) file describes project dependencies which Maven resolves by downloading them.

NOTE: Some prefer to install and use the Cargo plugin (from Codehaus) to Maven in order to eliminate use of pom.xml. In a folder that contains a pom.xml:

mvn clean verify org.codehaus.cargo:cargo-maven2-plugin:run

https://codehaus-cargo.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CARGO/pages/491622/Maven2+Plugin+Reference+Guide

  1. The vast majority of Maven-built projects can be built with this command:

    Easy Steps to Use Ophcrack on Your Mac. Click on Launchpad in the Dock of your Mac and search for and click on Terminal. The Terminal app should open. When the Terminal app launches, type in the following command into it and press Enter. Ruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com. Ophcrack for mac os x.

    The “clean” cleans out results from the prior build before starting with install.

    During the first full run, testing jars are installed in your local maven repository.

  2. Maven is said to also act as project management tool becauseit can generate reports etc.

    build.xml

    Maven enforces a standard naming convention for artifacts defined usinggroupId, artifactId, and version.

  3. After the first run, builds can skip tests with this additional parameter:

Maven lifecycle phases

Here are sub-commands for mvn:

Default Lifecycle:

Sub-commandDescription
validateValidate the project is correct and all necessary information is available
initializeinitialize build state, (for example : set properties, create directories,… etc)
generate-sourcesgenerate any source code for inclusion in compilation
process-sourcesprocess the source code (for example : filter any values)
generate-resourcesgenerate resources for inclusion in the package.
process-resourcescopy and process the resources into the destination directory, ready for packaging.
compilecompile the source code of the project.
process-classespost-process the generated files from compilation (for example : to do bytecode enhancement on Java classes)
generate-test-sourcesgenerate any test source code for inclusion in compilation.
process-test-sourcesprocess the test source code (for example : to filter any values)
generate-test-resourcescreate resources for testing.
process-test-resourcescopy and process the resources into the test destination directory.
test-compilecompile the test source code into the test destination directory.
process-test-classespost-process the generated files from test compilation (for example : to do bytecode enhancement on Java classes)
testrun tests using a suitable unit testing framework. These tests should not require the code be packaged or deployed.
prepare-packageperform any operations necessary to prepare a package before the actual packaging. This often results in an unpacked, processed version of the package.
packageTake the compiled code and package it in its distributable format (for example : jar, war, …etc)
pre-integration-testperform actions required before integration tests are executed. This may involve things such as setting up the required environment.
integration-testprocess and deploy the package if necessary into an environment where integration tests can be run.
post-integration-testperform actions required after integration tests have been executed. This may including cleaning up the environment.
verifyrun any checks to verify the package is valid and meets quality criteria.
installinstall the package into the local repository, for use as a dependency in other projects locally.
deploydone in an integration or release environment, copies the final package to the remote repository for sharing with other developers and projects.

Clean Lifecycle:

Sub-commandDescription
pre-cleanExecutes processes needed prior to the actual project cleaning
cleanRemove all files generated by the previous build
post-cleanExecute processes needed to finalize the project cleaning

Site Lifecycle:

Sub-commandDescription
pre-siteExecutes processes needed prior to the actual project site generation.
siteGenerates the project’s site documentation.
post-siteExecutes processes needed to finalize the site generation, and to prepare for site deployment.
site-deployDeploys the generated site documentation to the specified web server.

More on OSX

This is one of a series on Mac OSX:

This article shows you how to install Java on Mac OSX, and also how to do Java/JDK version switching.

Tested with

  • Mac OS 10.15.3
  • JDK 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 (AdoptOpenJDK)

Note
On Mac OSX, Java should installed in this folder; it is Mac’s standard.

We will show you two ways to install Java JDK on Mac, via the popular Homebrew package manager and manually installation.

1. Homebrew

1.1 Install Homebrew and update it.

1.2 Add adoptopenjdk/openjdk.

1.3 Find all available JDK.

The output may vary.

1.4 Java 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, choose one to install.

This example will install Java 8 and 11 for testing.

1.5 Where Java is installed? /usr/libexec/java_home -V

Homebrew will install the JDK at folder /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/, and this folder is Mac’s standard folder for Java installs.

1.6 Test it, by default, Mac takes the highest version.

1.7 How to do version switching? Refer to below 3. version switching

2. Manual installation

The example shows you how to download the early access JDK 14 and install it on Mac OSX.

Steps

  • Download JDK.
  • Puts the JDK folder at /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines.
  • Export JAVA_HOME.

2.1 Download the early access JDK 14 from the OpenJDK website.

2.2 Extracts tar file to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines

2.3 Export JAVA_HOME.

Find out where is JDK 14.

Create or edit the existing ~/.bash_profile with a text editor.

Export JAVA_HOME, save and exit.

~/.bash_profile

Reflect the changes

2.4 Test it.

3. Version Switching

In this tutorial, we installed the Java 8 and Java 11 via Homebrew (Step 1), and Java 14 manually (Step 2), so this Mac has three versions now. And the Mac is using the JDK 14.

Note
There are tools like jEnv to manage the Java version switching, but I prefer to manage with export JAVA_HOME manually, it’s simple and easy to understand, no black box magic.

3.1 Create or edit the existing ~/.bash_profile with a text editor like vim or nano, export JAVA_HOME to the specified JDK we want to use on Mac.

The above changes will make JAVA_HOME point to JAVA 8.

3.2 Reflect the changes.

Done.

Maven Settings.xml Mac Os X

If we want to switch JDK version again, update the ~/.bash_profile and export JAVA_HOME to other JDK version.
