Dependencies

In a maven project there are lots of dependencies to handle – often one wants to know which version of a software comes from. The solution to this problem is the Maven Dependency Plugin which helps you to find used/unused/declared/undeclared dependencies in your project. In addition the plugin allows you to copy or unpack artifacts. Maven Goals dependency:copy – copies artifacts defined in the config to a specified location – details available here dependency:resolve – resolves all dependencies and shows the versions dependency:go-offline – resolves everything the project needs like dependencies, plugins and reports dependency:analyze - parses the dependencies and shows if they are used/declared/unused/undeclared .. dependency:analyze-dep-gmt - finds mismatches between resolved dependencies and those listed in the dependencyManagement section dependency:tree – shows a nice dependency tree for the maven project ...
