Built by Maven

dependency:resolve

Full name:

org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:3.9.0:resolve

Description:

Goal that resolves the project dependencies from the repository. When running on Java 9, the module names will be visible as well.

Attributes:

  • Requires a Maven project to be executed.
  • Requires dependency resolution of artifacts in scope: test.
  • The goal is thread-safe and supports parallel builds.
  • Since version: 2.0.
  • Binds by default to the lifecycle phase: generate-sources.

Optional Parameters

Name Type Since Description
<appendOutput> boolean 2.2 Whether to append outputs into the output file or overwrite it.
Default: false
User Property: appendOutput
<classifier> String 2.0 Specify classifier to look for. Example: sources.
User Property: classifier
<excludeArtifactIds> String 2.0 Comma-separated list of artifact IDs to exclude.
User Property: excludeArtifactIds
<excludeClassifiers> String 2.0 Comma-separated list of Classifiers to exclude. Empty String indicates don't exclude anything (default).
User Property: excludeClassifiers
<excludeGroupIds> String 2.0 Comma-separated list of group IDs to exclude.
User Property: excludeGroupIds
<excludeScope> String 2.0 Scope threshold to exclude, if no value is defined for include. An empty string indicates no dependencies (default). Unlike the other exclusion parameters, this property does not support a comma-delimited list of scope exclusions. Just one scope may be excluded at a time.
The scope threshold value being interpreted is the scope as Maven filters for creating a classpath, not as specified in the pom. In summary:
  • runtime exclude scope excludes runtime and compile dependencies,
  • compile exclude scope excludes compile, provided, and system dependencies,
  • test exclude scope excludes all dependencies, then not really a legitimate option: it will fail, you probably meant to configure includeScope = compile
  • provided exclude scope just excludes provided dependencies,
  • system exclude scope just excludes system dependencies.

User Property: excludeScope
<excludeTransitive> boolean 2.0 If we should exclude transitive dependencies.
Default: false
User Property: excludeTransitive
<excludeTypes> String 2.0 Comma-separated list of Types to exclude. Empty String indicates don't exclude anything (default).
User Property: excludeTypes
<includeArtifactIds> String 2.0 Comma-separated list of artifact IDs to include. Empty String indicates include everything (default).
User Property: includeArtifactIds
<includeClassifiers> String 2.0 Comma-separated list of Classifiers to include. Empty string indicates include everything (default).
User Property: includeClassifiers
<includeGroupIds> String 2.0 Comma-separated list of group IDs to include. Empty string indicates include everything (default).
User Property: includeGroupIds
<includeParents> boolean 2.8 Include parent poms in the dependency resolution list.
Default: false
User Property: includeParents
<includeScope> String 2.0 Scope threshold to include. An empty string indicates include all dependencies (default).
The scope threshold value being interpreted is the scope as Maven filters for creating a classpath, not as specified in the pom. In summary:
  • runtime include scope gives runtime and compile dependencies,
  • compile include scope gives compile, provided, and system dependencies,
  • test include scope gives all dependencies (equivalent to default),
  • provided include scope just gives provided dependencies,
  • system include scope just gives system dependencies.

User Property: includeScope

User Property: includeTypes
<markersDirectory> File 2.0 Directory to store flag files.

User Property: outputFile
<outputScope> boolean 2.0-alpha-2 If we should display the scope when resolving.
Default: true
User Property: mdep.outputScope
<overWriteIfNewer> boolean 2.0 Overwrite artifacts that don't exist or are older than the source.
Default: true
User Property: overWriteIfNewer
<overWriteReleases> boolean 1.0 Overwrite release artifacts.
Default: false
User Property: overWriteReleases
<overWriteSnapshots> boolean 1.0 Overwrite snapshot artifacts.
Default: false
User Property: overWriteSnapshots
<prependGroupId> boolean 2.2 Prepend the group ID during copy.
Default: false
User Property: mdep.prependGroupId
<silent> boolean 2.0
Deprecated.
to be removed in 4.0; use -q command line option instead

If the plugin should be silent.
Default: false
User Property: silent
<skip> boolean 2.7 Skip plugin execution completely.
Default: false
User Property: mdep.skip
<skipDuringIncrementalBuild> boolean 3.4.0 Skip plugin execution only during incremental builds (e.g. triggered from M2E).

Default: false
<sort> boolean 2.8 Sort the output list of resolved artifacts alphabetically. The default ordering matches the classpath order.
Default: false
User Property: sort
<type> String 2.0 Specify type to look for when constructing artifact based on classifier. Example: java-source,jar,war.
User Property: type
