Given a <plugin> element in a pom.xml, how do I find the default phase that it binds to?
For example, I'd like to know which phase of the Maven lifecycle does the maven-war-plugin gets executed.
The best way to see what's really happening in your project along those lines is with mvn help:effective-pom. It doesn't just show the defaults; it shows what actually is according to your current pom.
I'm having a problem with the above-reply.
Here's a simple pom. It uses an annotation processor plugin, which is bound to generate-sources by-default, since I didn't specify a <phase>.
<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">

mvn generate-resources does indeed invoke the plugin...

Yet scanning the output of mvn help:effective-pom doesn't yield any clue to the default binding of this plugin.
$ mvn help:effective-pom |grep generate-sources; echo $?
1
The only way I've so-far found to list default phase binding is by examining plugin source.

I am a beginner in GWT and Maven. I created a new GWT Application project in Eclipse. Then, I converted that project into Maven Project by right-click on Project name => Configure => Convert to Maven Project and I saw that a pom file was generated for that project. Next, I run as project as Maven build but it was not compiled since a goal was not specified there. Actually, I don't understand what exactly have I to write under that goal section, therefore, I wrote package under that and then again I built maven and it compiled successfully.
After that, I tried to run this maven project in Command Prompt on the SuperDevMode using the 2nd step mentioned on Run the GWT Project under the Setting up a new project section. But while following these steps on Command Prompt, I got an error that devmode could not be found. Here is my Command prompt log:

I searched a lot to resolve this error but found no solution for that issue. Please help me to fix this issue as I am very confused on how to fix it.
Edit: After further study, I used mvn gwt:run as an alternative to the command mvn gwt:devmode, but still I got another error on command prompt as given below:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:gwt-maven-plugin:2.8.1:run (default-cli) on project MyWebApp: The parameters 'runTarget' for goal org.codehaus.mojo:gwt-maven-plugin:2.8.1:run are missing or invalid
Without any more information than gwt:devmode, Maven will try to find an appropriate plugin, based on its default settings. It happens that a gwt-maven-plugin exists with org.codehaus.mojo as groupId, fitting in Maven built-in plugin resolution.
But this is not the plugin you're looking for.
You are probably trying to use this one, so just add this to your pom.xml, in the <plugins> section:
<plugin>
<groupId>net.ltgt.gwt.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>gwt-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-rc-8</version>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<configuration>
<moduleName>com.example.app.App</moduleName>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Adapting the moduleName if needed.
Well, I was able to solve this issue by copying some dependencies, plugin, and configuration from the pom.xml file (which is generated in the project created by the webAppCreator using maven) to the pom.xml file of my project created in the Eclipse. So, this is my pom.xml file created finally:

When I run this application using maven in the Command Prompt, it ran successfully except showing 2 or 3 warnings in the Command Prompt log. Also, I noticed that the SNAPSHOT generated in the version is different for the pom.xml created by Eclipse as compared to the one created by the maven project on command prompt.
I am literally trying to do exactly this:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/usage.html#The_dependency:build-classpath_mojo
What's amazing is that after finding an explicit example of exactly what I want Maven to do.. I still can't get it to work.
From the command line, I can run ...
mvn -Dmdep.outputFile=classpath.txt dependency:build-classpath
... which does indeed produce a file called classpath.txt with the information I'd like.
I would like to be able to issue a command like "mvn compile" and have the production of this classpath.txt file be a part of that process. The example provided at the link above associates it with generate-sources, which to my understanding should suffice.
When executing a command like "mvn compile" with this pom snippet below, nothing regarding the build-classpath goal seems to execute.

Your plugin definition is inside <pluginManagement>, which means that when you will declare a "real" execution of that plugin inside a pom that has this pom as parent (or this pom itself), it will use that configuration.
This is generaly a good idea to use <pluginManagement> when a common configuration has to be applied on multiple execution, through multiple modules in the same global project.
Here, I would personally keep the compiler plugin inside <pluginManagement>, as you probably always want that plugin to be configured like this, but I woul move the dependency-plugin inside the <plugins> section (outside the <pluginManagement> section, well yes, this can be confusive...)
You may think of <pluginManagement> as a kind of template. It's often used in parent POMs to define a common configuration. Only plugins in <build><plugins> are included in the build.
That said, Maven does do some "magic" depending on the packaging type. I answered a similar question here.
I'm trying to set up Maven on a node project I'm working on for build reasons. I've added the following minimal pom.xml file to the project:
<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">

However, now when I run mvn install it starts, begins to download the plugin but never finishes. Here is the command and console:
$ mvn install

Now when I curl or visit the address, I can see the xml file perfect. Can anyone give me any direction on how to head from here? I'm using Maven 3.1.1 and Java 7.
Check your settings.xml file, which Maven looks for in the following locations and order:
$HOME/.m2/settings.xml
$M2_HOME/conf/settings.xml
There is a section in the settings.xml file for proxies and mirrors, which may be why you're seeing inconsistent bhavior between curl and mvn
EDIT
See Maven docs on settings.xml for more details:
<proxies>
<proxy>
<id>myproxy</id>
<active>true</active>
<protocol>http</protocol>
<host>proxy.somewhere.com</host>
<port>8080</port>
<username>proxyuser</username>
<password>somepassword</password>
<nonProxyHosts>*.google.com|ibiblio.org</nonProxyHosts>
</proxy>
</proxies>
In some cases it takes long time for maven to understand network problems. I saw situations when it "hangs" for 15 minutes on secured network without proper config for proxy.
I didn't use curl, but I wonder if it can use system proxy settings? Maven should be configured separately, he doesn't understand them.
I'm trying to run exec-maven-plugin's exec:java goal on a simple two-module project where one module depends on the other. So far I can't find a configuration that works. Here's a boiled-down test case:

What's the right way to configure this project to allow exec:java to see MyMain?
EDIT: Here's a gist if you'd like to try this yourself: https://gist.github.com/2950830
EDIT: Clarification: I know it's possible to mvn install and then either run exec:java from module2's directory or use the -pl flag from the top. However, I'd like to avoid running mvn install. It shouldn't be necessary to modify my local repository in order to run this goal in a multi-module project. Just as mvn compile "just works" with a multi-module project, so should other goals/phases.
Goals in a multi-module project, when run from the parent, will run against all modules. I don't think that's what you want. You can try:
mvn exec:java -pl module2 -Dexec.mainClass=MyMain
That might work? More info:
Running a specific Maven plugin goal from the command line in a sub-module of a multi-module reactor project
However, I think it's more intuitive to change directory to the sub-module containing the executable before running it.
You should bind the exec-maven-plugin to a maven lifecycle goal, say verify.
Since you want the plugin to be executed only for module2, define the plugin configurations in the parent pom within pluginManagement. Use the same only in module 2.
Then run the following:
mvn verify -Dexec.mainClass=MyMain.
parent pom

See this answer for a single-command alternative without mvn install:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/26448447/1235281
By using skip in the parent pom.xml, you can tell Maven to only run exec:java on a specific submodule.

I have created a maven android project using this archetype. I want to integrate mirah source files inside my project. So I added the plugin mentioned here to my pom.xml. I setup the configuration section for the plugin to point the source directory to src/main/mirah.
But when I run mvn compile it only compiles the sources inside src/main/java. I have tried running it with mvn -X compile to try and debug the issue, but I can't find anything related to mirah or the mirah-maven-plugin there.
Using the archetype it created two projects - project and project-it (tests) , there is a pom.xml in the root directory as well as a pom.xml in project and project-it directories. I have tried the above configurations in both the root directory as well as in project's pom.xml.
I have come across this question related to using the build-helper plugin but I don't know if it will help in my case. Since my mirah plugin isn't getting called at all.
Is this the right way to do what I'm trying to do? Any help on the setup, or pointer to how to troubleshoot this would be much appreciated.
The relevant bit of my pom.xml
<plugin>
<groupId>org.mirah.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-mirah-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<configuration>
<sourceDirectory>src/main/mirah</sourceDirectory>
<outputDirectory>target/classes</outputDirectory>
<bytecode>true</bytecode>
<verbose>false</verbose>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>compile</phase>
<goals><goal>compile</goal></goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Edited as per answer below.
I have added the source directory using the build-helper plugin and I'm able to get the mirah sources to compile using mvn org.mirah.maven:maven-mirah-plugin:1.0:compile from the answer below. But mvn compile still only compiles the sources in src/main/java and not src/main/mirah.
For anyone interested in the output of mvn -X compile here is the pastie.
This page https://github.com/calavera/maven-mirah-plugin#readme says that the mirah plugin extends the default compiler plugin. So this would suggest that the build helper plugin would work for multiple source directories, if it works for the default compiler plugin.
Looking at the mirah plugin, you probably don't need to specify sourceDirectory and outputDirectory yourself, as it seems you're using the defaults.
The -X switch won't have any impact on the mirah plugin directly, as it doesn't do any tracing itself (above what the default compiler plugin does).
Can you show your -X output anyway to show that the mirah plugin isn't invoked?
Alternatively, you could build the mirah plugin yourself and add tracing. It doesn't seem a complicated plugin.
What happens when you try and invoke the plugin directly? E.g.
mvn org.mirah.maven:maven-mirah-plugin:1.0:compile
EDIT:
Tried it myself and this works for me (by 'works' I mean the plugin gets invoked - my build actually fails).
