KU
projects which is based on POM (project object model).
● It uses POM (project object model) file to manage project’s build, dependency
and documentation.
● The most powerful features of maven are to download the project
AM
dependency libraries automatically and to create the right project structure.
● Introduced in 2002 by Apache
● Open source

D
● Maven repositories are directories of packaged JAR files with extra
meta-data.
AR
● The meta-data is represented by POM files.
● A repository contains all the project jars, library jar, plugins and any other
project specific artifacts.
M
Types of maven repository:
KU
1. Local Repository
2. Central Repository
3. Remote Repository
AM
1. Maven Local Repository:
KR
● Maven local repository is a directory on the developer’s machine.
VI
● It gets created when we run any maven command for the first time.
thumuvikram@[Link] VIKRAM KUMAR SIR NOTES 4

● It contains all the dependencies (downloaded by maven) like library jars,
plugin jars etc.
● Default location of maven local repository is user-home/.m2 directory.
● We can change the default location of maven local repository by changing
S
the [Link] file. It is located in MAVEN_HOME/conf/[Link].
TE
<settings>
O
<localRepository>
N
/ /Set desired location
</localRepository>
</settings>
PS
2. Maven Central Repository:
O
● Maven central repository is created by the apache maven community itself.
● It contains a lot of commonly used libraries.
EV
● By default Maven looks in this central repository for any dependencies
needed but not found in your local repository.
D
Maven central repository path: [Link]
3. Maven Remote Repository:
AR
● Maven remote repository is a repository on a web server.
● A remote repository can be located anywhere on the internet or inside a local
M
network.
● We can configure a remote repository in the POM file.
KU
● We have to put the following XML elements right after the element:
<repositories>
<repository>
AM
<id>[Link]</id>
<url>https://[Link]/maven2/lib</url>
</repository>
KR
</repositories>
