Getting to know Maven

Posted on May 9, 2013 by Mark Nelson

I have a number of posts that talk about using Maven to automate builds for Fusion Middleware projects.  I know that there are some people who have not used Maven before, or maybe only a little.  So I wanted to post a few short videos that explain the basic concepts and give a real example.

Here is the first installment – Basic Maven – you might want to watch fullscreen 🙂

Coming soon:

  • Intermediate Maven
  • Advanced Maven
  • Using the WebLogic Maven Plugin

    Cool stuff. For those of you playing along at home, here are some of the command lines that were a bit fuzzy to read:
    To run the war file:
    $ mvn org.mortbay.jetty:maven-jetty-plugin:run-war

    To see the effective POM:
    $ mvn help:effective-pom

    To describe the Jetty plugin:
    $ mvn help:describe -DgroupId=org.mortbay.jetty -DartifactId=maven-jetty-plugin
