Maven，添加另一个项目父pom和模块作为依赖，就好像它们是你的一样

Question

There is a project on github , which has a parent pom and sub modules .

I have a project like that too .

I'd like that code to get into my editor as if it was my project, and i could edit and navigate to those files ... but I am not able to successfully do that.

In my parent pom, i've tried to add the parent module:

<module>./GITHUBROJECT/GITHUBROJECT-core</module>
<module>./GITHUBROJECT/GITHUBROJECT-api</module>

and/or just the parent pom path, hoping it would read that pom and resolve all child modules :

<module>./GITHUBROJECT/GITHUBROJECT-api</module>

and tried to add all child modules as well.

Then in my "Core" module, I add the dependency, but each time, it seems to always resolve to jar resources when using Intellij but for my own projects it always resolve to the local version .

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.GITHUBPROJECT</groupId>
    <artifactId>GITHUBPROJECT</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.2</version>
</dependency>

Is this possible?

Answer 1

Maven does not work this way, it does not ever resolve dependencies on source . It resolves on compiled and installed artifacts regardless of where they are in the parent child hierarchy.

You still have to mvn install to get the dependencies to resolve.

If you are forking a project you need to change the groupId at the least so that you can resolve against your fork rather than the original.
