- Maven Download For Mac Os X
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”.

On Windows:
In a Terminal, verify changes:
The reply is, for example:
Change Default Configurations
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

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.
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.
After the first run, builds can skip tests with this additional parameter:
Maven lifecycle phases
Here are sub-commands for mvn:
Default Lifecycle:
Sub-command | Description |
---|---|
validate | Validate the project is correct and all necessary information is available |
initialize | initialize build state, (for example : set properties, create directories,… etc) |
generate-sources | generate any source code for inclusion in compilation |
process-sources | process the source code (for example : filter any values) |
generate-resources | generate resources for inclusion in the package. |
process-resources | copy and process the resources into the destination directory, ready for packaging. |
compile | compile the source code of the project. |
process-classes | post-process the generated files from compilation (for example : to do bytecode enhancement on Java classes) |
generate-test-sources | generate any test source code for inclusion in compilation. |
process-test-sources | process the test source code (for example : to filter any values) |
generate-test-resources | create resources for testing. |
process-test-resources | copy and process the resources into the test destination directory. |
test-compile | compile the test source code into the test destination directory. |
process-test-classes | post-process the generated files from test compilation (for example : to do bytecode enhancement on Java classes) |
test | run tests using a suitable unit testing framework. These tests should not require the code be packaged or deployed. |
prepare-package | perform any operations necessary to prepare a package before the actual packaging. This often results in an unpacked, processed version of the package. |
package | Take the compiled code and package it in its distributable format (for example : jar, war, …etc) |
pre-integration-test | perform actions required before integration tests are executed. This may involve things such as setting up the required environment. |
integration-test | process and deploy the package if necessary into an environment where integration tests can be run. |
post-integration-test | perform actions required after integration tests have been executed. This may including cleaning up the environment. |
verify | run any checks to verify the package is valid and meets quality criteria. |
install | install the package into the local repository, for use as a dependency in other projects locally. |
deploy | done in an integration or release environment, copies the final package to the remote repository for sharing with other developers and projects. |
Clean Lifecycle:
Sub-command | Description |
---|---|
pre-clean | Executes processes needed prior to the actual project cleaning |
clean | Remove all files generated by the previous build |
post-clean | Execute processes needed to finalize the project cleaning |
Site Lifecycle:
Sub-command | Description |
---|---|
pre-site | Executes processes needed prior to the actual project site generation. |
site | Generates the project’s site documentation. |
post-site | Executes processes needed to finalize the site generation, and to prepare for site deployment. |
site-deploy | Deploys the generated site documentation to the specified web server. |

More on OSX
This is one of a series on Mac OSX:
Please enable JavaScript to view the comments powered by Disqus.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.
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.
