I am creating a simple spring mvc project using maven but in this list (IN PICTURE) I am not able to find the artifactId for the spring mvc project. What i am missing here?
This usually just means that your index doesn't already have the archetype you want; you might need to add a catalog.
Instead, though, I recommend Spring Initializr, a tool that lets you select the components you want and builds a ready-to-go POM for you.
Add Remote Archetype in your eclipse it will show you that option. Following are the steps:
File--->New---> Maven Project---->Next--->Click on tab Configure
Separate window will open... Maven-->Archetypes-->Click on Add Remote Catalog--> In Catalog File type "http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/archetype-catalog.xml" and click on Apply and then Ok
Now in new Maven Project select Remote Archetype from Catalog and you will find webapp-j2ee14 option there.

I have created a maven project with web app archetype in eclipse.
Is there any plugin or feature that allows me to select my dependencies like eclipse's facet or spring initializr?
For example, I want to add Jsf 2.3 or servlet to my project, but I don't know the exact GroupId and ArtifactId of that dependency.
This hypothetical plugin opens a window that shows regular or most used projects based on type of project.
For example, I specify that I'm using jakarta ee 8 with glassfish and it shows Servlet, jax-rs, Ejb... or if I'm using Spring boot, it shows spring security or other spring sub projects and after I selected my needs It adds dependencies to pom.xml. I have been enabled index downloads in eclipse.
Thanks in advance.
By default, the Maven tooling does not download the Maven index for the Eclipse IDE. Via the Maven index you can search for dependencies, select them and add them to your pom file. To download the index, select Windows Preferences Maven and enable the Download repository index updates on startup option.
After changing this setting, restart Eclipse. This triggers the download of the Maven index. You may want to remove this flag after restarting to avoid network traffic at every start of Eclipse.
Note: The m2e team works on a way to dynamically query for dependencies. Please register for the following bug to show that you are interested in this development:
Provide an alternative Artifact search mechanism in Eclipse Maven
How to use:
1. Create a new Maven project via File New Other… Maven
2. Maven Project. Press next, filter for the "quickstart" archetype and select the maven-archetype-quickstart entry.
I'm trying to build a project from scratch and I want to build a project from scratch, is there a way to generate archetype without scrolling through CLI? I mean can I specify requirements as a Spring Boot project?
When you create the new project , select the maven project in eclipse, it will provide the options for all arch types along with the group I'd and artefact I'd. It will provide the list of all arch types.
For example, if I am new to spring mvc framework, I follow a tutorial and need to use DispatcherServlet. So I come to maven repository, search for spring, comes out many dependency candidate:
spring-context, spring-web, spring-core, ....
How do I know which of them contains the class I wanted: DispatcherServlet, without searching on Google first?
You can go to the Advanced search page of Maven Central which gives you the choice to search groupId, artifactId, version, packaging and classifier or for a Classname.
If you run a repository manager (e.g., nexus, artefactory) it will have a classname search on its advanced search option.
Or you can search here
https://mvnrepository.com
I expect, eclipse, idea or netbeans ide to offer search too. If you click on the class and open its definition (ctrl b in idea, F3 in eclipse, the ide open the appropriate src jar)
A tip, if you are using IntelliJ IDEA is to write the static type of the class you need inside the IDE and select 'Add Maven dependency' (can be accessed from the menu you open with ALT+Enter). Then the IDE will find the right Maven dependency for you and add it automatically to your pom.xml.
I am using STS (the Elipse version for Spring framework) and I am finding some difficulties to create a new Spring MVC project that use Maven structure.
So I am trying to do something as shown in this tutorial: http://www.codejava.net/frameworks/spring/creating-a-spring-mvc-project-using-maven-and-eclipse-in-one-minute
So I do: File ---> New ---> Maven Project
and when I come to the Select an Archetype wizard I select All Categories into the Catalog dropdown and it show this list of archetype:
As you can see there is no reference to any kind of Spring project and if I write "Spring" into the Filter I obtain no result.
Why? What am I missing?
Instead of using the archetypes, use Spring Initializr and import the Maven project it creates. If you have a recent version of STS, you can go to File->New->Spring Starter Project and fill out the form from the Eclipse wizard.
I am trying to follow the basic tutorial for Spring MVC but got lost at creating a new project in Eclipse.
It seems to me that most tutorials assume you know how to create a Spring Project in Eclipse.
Any advice on where to get started or tutorials which explain how to set up Eclipse would be appreciated.
You want to create a "Dynamic Web Project". Follow the steps here: Spring MVC Tutorial with Eclipse and Tomcat.
Also, here is the Eclipse documentation for Dynamic Web Projects: http://help.eclipse.org/help32/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.wst.webtools.doc.user/topics/ccwebprj.html
Download Spring STS (SpringSource Tool Suite) and choose Spring Template Project from the Dashboard. This is the easiest way to get a preconfigured spring mvc project, ready to go.
You don't necessarily have to create a Spring project. Almost all Java web applications have he same project structure. In almost every project I create, I automatically add these source folder:
src/main/java
src/main/resources
src/test/java
src/test/resources
src/main/webapp*
src/main/webapp isn't actually a source folder. The web.xml file under src/main/webapp/WEB-INF will allow you to run your java application on any Java enabled web server (Tomcat, Jetty, etc.). I typically add the Jetty Plugin to my POM (assuming you use Maven), and launch the web app in development using mvn clean jetty:run.
This is the easiest way :
step 1) install Spring Tool Suite (STS) for eclipse (version 3.7.0RELEASE or above)
To do this you can go to Help >> eclipse market place , then type Spring Tool suite in search box.
step 2) now go to file >> new >> spring project as shown in the image below
step 3)now choose the template as "spring MVC Project" and give a name to your project on the top as shown below ( I named it 'SpringProject')
step 4)now give a base package name like this
and that is . The project will be created in a few minutes and Now you can right click on it and run on server.
step 1: create a new "Dynamic Web Project" in eclipse.
step 2: right click on the created project.
step 3: click on "configure" option.
step 4: click on "convert to maven project".
