如何使用Maven在WAR档案WEB-INF / lib中包含JAR？

Question

My Maven pom file builds a war without the dependencies, so that i have to manually add them to the WEB-INF/lib.

Is there any way to instruct Maven to include all the dependencies within the war ? So the the war become self content and independent

Answer 1

Just make sure the type of your pom is war . Maven's default behavior is to copy dependencies in the lib folder. PS If you found any trouble post your full pom. Besides see maven war plugin for further doc

Answer 2

Yes, make sure the packaging is of type war like <packaging>war</packaging> . Also check if the dependencies in your pom are of the right scope, for example if they are not default or the compile scope, that's possibly why they are not bundled into the war's lib folder.

<dependency>

 <scope>compile</scope>
<dependency>
