Maven日常 —— 你应该知道的一二三

以前在日常工作中，使用Maven只是机械的执行Maven clean、Maven install,对其中的原理与过程并无了解，近期阅读了《Maven实战》，对Maven有了更深入的理解。

本篇就针对读书后的理解，对Maven的日常使用相关的知识进行总结与归纳。

如果想要了解更多内容参考：《Maven实战》

1 什么是Maven？

如果没有Maven,你可能不得不经历下面的过程：

1 如果使用了spring，去spring的官网下载jar包；如果使用hibernate，去hibernate的官网下载Jar包；如果使用Log4j，去log4j的官网下载jar包.....

2 当某些jar包有依赖的时候，还要去下载对应的依赖jar包

3 当jar包依赖有冲突时，不得不一个一个的排查

4 执行构建时，需要使用ant写出很多重复的任务代码

5 当新人加入开发时，需要拷贝大量的jar包，然后重复进行构建

6 当进行测试时，需要一个一个的运行....检查

有了Maven，它提供了三种功能：

1 依赖的管理：仅仅通过jar包的几个属性，就能确定唯一的jar包，在指定的文件pom.xml中，只要写入这些依赖属性，就会自动下载并管理jar包。

2 项目的构建：内置很多的插件与生命周期，支持多种任务，比如校验、编译、测试、打包、部署、发布...

3 项目的知识管理：管理项目相关的其他内容，比如开发者信息，版本等等

2 Maven如何管理jar包

关于jar包的坐标，有过使用经验的都应该有所了解，maven是通过groupId，artifactId，以及version确定一个唯一的jar包。

这部分的内容可以参考前一篇：构建过程

例如,最常使用的Junit的声明就是如下：

<dependency>
  <groupId>junit</groupId>
  <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
  <version>4.12</version>
  <scope>test</scope> 这是声明的范围，不同的生命周期所要求的范围是不一样的，详情参考《Maven实战》
</dependency>

首先先来说说Maven下载jar包的过程：

在Maven中会涉及到几种仓库：

1 工作空间，即我们的项目工程，这里面可能会放着pom.xml文件，这个pom.xml就是maven的配置文件

2 本地仓库，本地仓库用于存放jar包，其实Jar包并不是直接放入工作空间的，它是存放在本地仓库，然后在执行发布打包的时候，添加依赖路径

3 私库：私库是使用者自己搭建的maven仓库，用于缓解频繁从外网下载jar包资源的压力。而且使用私库作为缓存层，也相对安全一些。

4 共享仓库：书中所说的中央仓库或者一些常用的镜像网站都属于这种，国内比较著名的oschina以及163都是不错的maven仓库。

 

当我们在pom中声明了依赖关系后，参考上面的图：

1 Maven在执行相关的任务时，会先去本地仓库查看是否有该资源，如果有的话，判断版本是否正确，如果一切都没问题则直接使用；否则，执行下一步

2 Maven会去配置的共享仓库中查找，如果找到就拷贝到本地仓库中；找不到则会给出相关的提示

3 Maven在本地如果搭建了私库，则会去私库中查找，找到就拷贝到本地仓库；找不到就会去共享仓库中查找，然后放入私库和本地库。有了私库，局域网内的开发者可以共享依赖，就不用每个人都去外网下载jar包，浪费带宽了。

 

关于本地仓库和共享仓库的配置都在settings.xml中，这个文件位于conf中，如果没有则拷贝一份即可。

 | This is the configuration file for Maven. It can be specified at two levels:
 |
 |  1. User Level. This settings.xml file provides configuration for a single user,
 |                 and is normally provided in ${user.home}/.m2/settings.xml.
 |
 |                 NOTE: This location can be overridden with the CLI option:
 |
 |                 -s /path/to/user/settings.xml
 |
 |  2. Global Level. This settings.xml file provides configuration for all Maven
 |                 users on a machine (assuming they're all using the same Maven
 |                 installation). It's normally provided in
 |                 ${maven.home}/conf/settings.xml.
 |
 |                 NOTE: This location can be overridden with the CLI option:
 |
 |                 -gs /path/to/global/settings.xml
 |
 | The sections in this sample file are intended to give you a running start at
 | getting the most out of your Maven installation. Where appropriate, the default
 | values (values used when the setting is not specified) are provided.

  <!-- interactiveMode
   | This will determine whether maven prompts you when it needs input. If set to false,

  <!-- pluginGroups
   | This is a list of additional group identifiers that will be searched when resolving plugins by their prefix, i.e.

  <!-- servers
   | This is a list of authentication profiles, keyed by the server-id used within the system.
   | Authentication profiles can be used whenever maven must make a connection to a remote server.
   |-->
  <servers>
    <!-- server
     | Specifies the authentication information to use when connecting to a particular server, identified by
     | a unique name within the system (referred to by the 'id' attribute below).
     |
     | NOTE: You should either specify username/password OR privateKey/passphrase, since these pairings are
     |       used together.
     |
    <server>
      <id>deploymentRepo</id>
      <username>repouser</username>

      <passphrase>optional; leave empty if not used.</passphrase>
    </server>
    -->
  </servers>

  <!-- mirrors
   | This is a list of mirrors to be used in downloading artifacts from remote repositories.
   |
   | It works like this: a POM may declare a repository to use in resolving certain artifacts.
   | However, this repository may have problems with heavy traffic at times, so people have mirrored
   | it to several places.
   |
   | That repository definition will have a unique id, so we can create a mirror reference for that
   | repository, to be used as an alternate download site. The mirror site will be the preferred
   | server for that repository.
   |-->
  <mirrors>
    <!-- mirror
     | Specifies a repository mirror site to use instead of a given repository. The repository that
     | this mirror serves has an ID that matches the mirrorOf element of this mirror. IDs are used
     | for inheritance and direct lookup purposes, and must be unique across the set of mirrors.
     |
    <mirror>
      <id>mirrorId</id>
      <mirrorOf>repositoryId</mirrorOf>
      <name>Human Readable Name for this Mirror.</name>
      <url>http://my.repository.com/repo/path</url>
    </mirror>
     -->
  </mirrors>

  <!-- profiles
   | This is a list of profiles which can be activated in a variety of ways, and which can modify
   | the build process. Profiles provided in the settings.xml are intended to provide local machine-
   | specific paths and repository locations which allow the build to work in the local environment.
   |
   | For example, if you have an integration testing plugin - like cactus - that needs to know where
   | your Tomcat instance is installed, you can provide a variable here such that the variable is
   | dereferenced during the build process to configure the cactus plugin.
   |
   | As noted above, profiles can be activated in a variety of ways. One way - the activeProfiles
   | section of this document (settings.xml) - will be discussed later. Another way essentially
   | relies on the detection of a system property, either matching a particular value for the property,
   | or merely testing its existence. Profiles can also be activated by JDK version prefix, where a
   | value of '1.4' might activate a profile when the build is executed on a JDK version of '1.4.2_07'.
   | Finally, the list of active profiles can be specified directly from the command line.
   |
   | NOTE: For profiles defined in the settings.xml, you are restricted to specifying only artifact
   |       repositories, plugin repositories, and free-form properties to be used as configuration
   |       variables for plugins in the POM.
   |
   |-->
  <profiles>
    <!-- profile
     | Specifies a set of introductions to the build process, to be activated using one or more of the
     | mechanisms described above. For inheritance purposes, and to activate profiles via <activatedProfiles/>
     | or the command line, profiles have to have an ID that is unique.
     |
     | An encouraged best practice for profile identification is to use a consistent naming convention
     | for profiles, such as 'env-dev', 'env-test', 'env-production', 'user-jdcasey', 'user-brett', etc.
     | This will make it more intuitive to understand what the set of introduced profiles is attempting
     | to accomplish, particularly when you only have a list of profile id's for debug.
     |
     | This profile example uses the JDK version to trigger activation, and provides a JDK-specific repo.
    <profile>
      <id>jdk-1.4</id>

      <activation>
        <jdk>1.4</jdk>
      </activation>

      <repositories>
        <repository>
          <id>jdk14</id>
          <name>Repository for JDK 1.4 builds</name>
          <url>http://www.myhost.com/maven/jdk14</url>
          <layout>default</layout>
          <snapshotPolicy>always</snapshotPolicy>
        </repository>
      </repositories>
    </profile>
    -->

    <!--
     | Here is another profile, activated by the system property 'target-env' with a value of 'dev',
     | which provides a specific path to the Tomcat instance. To use this, your plugin configuration
     | might hypothetically look like:
     |
     | ...
     | <plugin>
     |   <groupId>org.myco.myplugins</groupId>
     |   <artifactId>myplugin</artifactId>
     |
     |   <configuration>
     |     <tomcatLocation>${tomcatPath}</tomcatLocation>
     |   </configuration>
     | </plugin>
     | ...
     |
     | NOTE: If you just wanted to inject this configuration whenever someone set 'target-env' to
     |       anything, you could just leave off the <value/> inside the activation-property.
     |
    <profile>
      <id>env-dev</id>

      <activation>
        <property>
          <name>target-env</name>
          <value>dev</value>
        </property>
      </activation>

      <properties>
        <tomcatPath>/path/to/tomcat/instance</tomcatPath>
      </properties>
    </profile>
    -->
  </profiles>

  <!-- activeProfiles
   | List of profiles that are active for all builds.
   |
  <activeProfiles>
    <activeProfile>alwaysActiveProfile</activeProfile>
    <activeProfile>anotherAlwaysActiveProfile</activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>
  -->
</settings>

其中本地仓库的配置为：

<localRepository>F:\apache-maven-3.3.9\repo</localRepository>

默认是在 用户的本地目录/.m2/repository中。

共享仓库的地址配置为:

  <mirrors>
    <mirror>
      <id>CN</id>
      <name>OSChina Central</name>                           
      <url>http://maven.oschina.net/content/groups/public/</url>
      <mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
    </mirror>
  </mirrors>

3 Maven的生命周期与阶段

Maven中有三大生命周期，他们相互独立，分别是：

1 clean 清理

2 default 构建

3 site 建站

一般来说，clean和default比较常用。

每个生命周期又有不同的阶段，阶段按顺序执行，并且可以指定执行结束的阶段。构建的时候，会依次从最上面的阶段执行到指定的那个阶段。

比如,clean有3个阶段：

1 pre-clean 执行清理前要完成的工作
2 clean 清理上一次构建生成的文件
3 post-clean 执行清理后需要完成的工作

当我们输入mvn clean的时候，执行的是pre-clean和clean两个阶段。

default的阶段比较多：

1 validate
2 initialize
3 generate-sources
4 process-sources
5 generate-resources
6 process-resources
7 compile
8 process-classes
9 generate-test-sources
10 process-test-sources
11 generate-test-resources
12 process-test-resources
13 test-compile
14 process-test-classes
15 tet
16 prepare-package
17 package
18 pre-integration-test
19 integration-test
20 post-integration-test
21 verify
22 install
23 deploy

看名字大概就能理解，当执行mvn install的时候，实际会执行validate-->initialize-->...-->verify-->install等二十几个阶段。

为了操作方便，不同的声明周期可以在一起执行，比如mvn clean install，会先执行clean的阶段，在执行install的阶段。

 

在IDE开发环境中，当我们Run as的时候，就可以执行maven clean进行清理，或者执行maven install进行构建，也可以执行maven build同时执行clean和install两个任务。

基本上了解上面两个知识点，就足够日常工作使用了。当然Maven可不止这么一点点的东西，比如它还涉及到自定义构建任务、间接依赖的管理、插件的使用、私库的搭建等等，如果需要的话，读者可以参考《Maven实战》，这本书讲述的很全面了。
