What are the steps for configuring Maven dependencies?
The steps for configuring Maven dependencies are as follows:
- Open the pom.xml file of the project, located in the root directory of the project.
- Add information about the dependencies to be imported in the `
` tag. - Wrap the information of the dependency package with the
tag. - Specify the coordinates (groupId, artifactId, version) of the dependency package in the
tag, you can search for the coordinates of the dependency package to be imported in the Maven repository. - You can specify the scope of the dependency package by using the
tag, such as compile, test, or runtime. - The
tag can be used to exclude transitive dependencies of a dependency package. - For example:
com.example
example-library
1.0.0
- Save the pom.xml file.
- Maven automatically downloads and installs dependencies. If a dependency is not found in the local repository, it will be downloaded from the central repository or other configured remote repositories.
- Maven can analyze the project’s dependency tree and ensure that all necessary dependencies are correctly included.
- The project can utilize the functionality provided by dependencies imported through Maven.
