Packaging Akka application.
Hi I am trying to package my application into an executable Jar. Below is my Pom.xml

I can't seem to get the Jar to work, it states missing akka.streams config.
I went through the official doc here
but it doesn't seem to work.
If I copy all Jar to output directory everything works just fine but the issue seems to be when I try to create a big fat jar with all the dependencies in it.
my MANIFEST.INF is below:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: MyAkkaProject.App
where App is the class with psvm and MyAkkaProject` is the package name
I resolved the issue, the issue was my IDE when I ran he project or even build it, it wasn't using Maven Lifecycle commands and hence the plug-in wasn't getting triggered.

I get that error when I do a fat jar with my spark program and then I launch it using:
java -jar -myApp.jar [args]
When I run my app in Eclipse, it works perfectly well. Here is my POM:

The piece of code that gives problems is:
Configuration conf = new Configuration();
conf.set("fs.defaultFS", hdfsConfPath);
FileSystem fs = FileSystem.get(conf);
I know it's Maven that's screwing up things somehow, but I don't know how to solve this issue!
It looks like the answer #amitmah pointed me to was indeed the right one (talking about the second most voted one, the maven-shade transformer).
The first one gives a ClassNotFound Exception and the maven shade transformer one gives it too.
The solution for me was to use only what Sparks already has,
Apply the answer given in the comments under my question (for people who use Maven Shade),
delete the hdfs dependency, as it creates some kind of conflicts at runtime, so no error during the maven build.
Here are the transformers in the pom:
<transformers>
<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.AppendingTransformer">
<resource>reference.conf</resource>
</transformer>
<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ManifestResourceTransformer">

<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ServicesResourceTransformer"/>
</transformers>
I'm new to Maven.
I created Maven Project and installed it (build succesful),but i cant run jar file from command prompt, it says
Error: Unable to access jarfile
I think i've got mistake in POM file

Building an executable Jar file with Maven can be tricky, but there is a way to do it! It looks like you're on the right track, but might be missing "ParagonCase" in the "packageName" property of the plugin (if your Main function is ru.nick.kru.ParagonCase.Main, then your packageName should be ru.nick.kru.ParagonCase).
I've also found it useful to use the maven shade plugin, which bundles all the necessary dependencies inside the Jar (i.e. you don't need all those dependencies as separate Jars in your classpath when you run the Jar).
In your POM you could add the following build plugin:
<build>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
<executions>
<!-- Run shade goal on package phase -->
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>shade</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<transformers>
<!-- add Main-Class to manifest file -->
<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ManifestResourceTransformer">
<mainClass>ru.nick.kru.ParagonCase.Main</mainClass>
</transformer>
</transformers>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</build>
In order to run the Jar (after it is created with mvn package). Launch it with java:
java -jar ParagonCase.jar
I am a newbie when it comes to Maven, and so really struggling to solve the following problem because a colleague with real knowledge in this area has moved onto fresh pastures. Would really appreciate pointers to where I might be going wrong; I realise there must be lots of questions on StackOverflow about Maven & Eclipse classpaths, but having searched some of them, I need to ask in my own terms because of my lack of experience - sorry.
Some files are attached which I hope will be enough to form the equivalent of an SSCCE in pure Maven POM terms. The Java itself is irrelevant and subject to obvious confidentiality, but I can provide more info if needed.
So I have a small Maven project providing my own API for a third-party software protection dongle (DinKey, from Microcosm). The project is called dinkeypro with half a dozen of my classes which reference the manufacturer's class that reads/writes the dongle, namely DinkeyPro.class. This class is held inside DinkeyPro.JAR, which I reference as a dependency using a SystemPath and, as you can see from the following POM, I've tried two different SystemPath specs. Just for reference, note that the manufacturer requires the package structure for the class file to be:
uk/microcosm/dinkeydongle/DinkeyPro.class
Here is the POM for dinkeypro, with irrelevant dependencies removed for brevity/readability:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

<systemPath>C:\Dev\core_dinkeypro\src\main\resources\DinkeyPro.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</project>
Access to the dongle API is required from two other Maven projects, 'client' and 'server'. They both appear to specify the exact same Maven dependency on dinkeypro (see POMs below) although, admittedly, client and server are structured differently in terms of folders (server uses the more recognisable src/main/java paradigm but the client does not, and I'm wondering if this is the source of the problem.
What happens is that the client project runs and successfully reads the dongle via my API, whilst the server throws:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: uk/microcosm/dinkeydongle/DinkeyPro
at com.xyz.dinkeypro.SoftwareProtectionReadOnlyAgent.isProtectionDevicePresent(SoftwareProtectionReadOnlyAgent.java:73)

I've examined the content of both the built client and server JAR files. They both contain DinkeyPro.JAR at the root of their own JAR, and both can navigate from the root to com.xyz.dinkeypro.
So, confusion reigns. Can anyone shed any light on what I've done wrong ? As you can see, I am valiantly trying to keep with Maven, simply so that future changes to dinkeypro API can just roll through to client and server (and any other projects that may need it one day...). However, if this gets to be too much of a minefield, I may just have to place a copy of DinkeyPro.JAR in the resources folder of the server project so that I can move on.
Many thanks
What I want to do is to change two existing classes in a project (project A). These classes are of type .class.
I want to use maven shade in another project (project B) to point out these classes in project A, do some modification to them, and send them back to the project (project A).
How can I do this?
So far I've created a project (B) and added the maven shade plugin to the pom file and have tried to point out the classes I want to change. Do not know if this is the right way to do this.
This is my pom file:

Regarding the modification I want to do:
I want to modify the RexsterApplicationProvider.class class.
to copy some stuff from the AbstractSecurityFilter.class class
[UPDATE]
I've added the two classes that I want to alter to my new project (B)'s src folder. (These classes have been decompiled before I added them here.)
Where do I go from here?
I am using Eclipse Maven (m2e) inside Eclipse and I am running my project like this:

After I run the maven install it is working...
Maven run configurations:
The problem is that my generated .jar it doesn't have the dependencies included....
How can I configure pom.xml to include all my dependencies in .jar format and not unpacked.. because it seems that unpacked are not working correct...
To be sure that including all jars is ok.. I downloaded and added each library into jar's /lib folder and the jar is running... so.. my only question is: How can I configure pom.xml in order to add all my dependencies in jar format?
I tried all methods:
assembly:assembly
assembly:single
assembly:single with my descriptor (an assemble.xml file) but it wasn't working
maven copy dependencies plugin but still not working with Eclipse Maven - m2e
I am out of solutions... can anyone tell me a proper way to add my dependencies in jar? I can't believe that maven is so complex and I can't find an answer to my question everywhere..
Thank you in advance
There are a couple of ways of doing this.
1) If you want an uber-jar (repacked with all dependencies), look into using and configuring the maven-shade-plugin:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.6</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>shade</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<transformers>
<transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ManifestResourceTransformer">
<mainClass>com.group.id.Launcher1</mainClass>
</transformer>
</transformers>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
This will unpack all dependencies and merge them into one JAR file.
2) If you want to deliver a bundle (zip, tar.gz, etc) with the unpacked JAR files in the bundle (perhaps under lib/) then you need to look into the maven-assembly-plugin:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>create-distro</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/dist.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Note that this requires an assembly descriptor src/main/assembly/dist.xml and example looks like this:
<assembly xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly/1.1.0">
<id>distribution</id>
<formats>
<format>zip</format>
</formats>
<dependencySets>
<dependencySet>

And since you are now assembling dependencies, you have better define the dependency in the pom.xml, like so:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.group.id</groupId>
<artifactId>project-launch1</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.group.id</groupId>
<artifactId>project-launch2</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.group.id</groupId>
<artifactId>project-lib1</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
... and so on ...
</dependencies>
3) If you are delivering a bundle with an executable JAR file launcher, you will likely need to add a maven-jar-plugin configuration in addition to the maven-assembly-plugin:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.group.id</groupId>
<artifactId>project-lib1</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.group.id</groupId>
<artifactId>project-lib2</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.group.id</groupId>
<artifactId>project-lib3</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
... and so on ...
</dependencies>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archive>
<addMavenDescriptor>false</addMavenDescriptor>
<compress>true</compress>
<manifest>
<mainClass>com.group.id.Launcher1</mainClass>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
<classpathPrefix>../lib/</classpathPrefix>
</manifest>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Note that the "addClasspath" directive adds the project dependencies to the class path. This is needed for JAR launchers, as they explicitly ignore all CLASSPATH environmental variables.
