To import the Lombok jar package, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Download the jar file for Lombok.

  1. Firstly, you need to go to https://projectlombok.org/ to download the Lombok jar file.

Step 2: Add the Lombok jar file to the project.

  1. Open your IDE, and then copy the downloaded Lombok jar file to a specific folder in your project (for example, the lib folder).

Step 3: Add Lombok dependency to the project.

  1. Open your project configuration file (such as pom.xml or build.gradle).
  2. If you are using Maven, add the following code to your pom.xml file:
<dependencies>
    ...
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
        <artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
        <version>1.18.20</version>
        <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>
    ...
</dependencies>
  1. If you are using Gradle, add the following code to your build.gradle file:
dependencies {
    ...
    implementationOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.20'
    ...
}

Step 4: Install the Lombok plugin in the IDE.

  1. Open your IDE and follow the instructions in the official documentation to install the Lombok plugin.
  2. Typically, all you need to do is search for “Lombok” in the IDE’s plugin marketplace or plugin manager and then click on install.

Step 5: Rebuild your project.

  1. Rebuild your project in IDE to enable Lombok annotations.

You have now successfully imported the Lombok jar file and can use Lombok annotations in your project to simplify your code.
