Apache Maven is a project management tool for managing the building, reporting and documenting of Java-based development project. It contains a project object model, a set of standards, a project lifecycle, a dependency management system and logic. Maven is designed to provide a sample project setup for users to have an easy environment.Maven addresses two parts of building a software, first, it describes how a software is built and second its dependencies. This tutorial covers the installation procedure of Apache Maven on Linux mint &ndash 18.3.

And once it is done, you need to add the repository by running the following command.
linuxhelp user # add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
You are about to add the following PPA:
Oracle Java (JDK) Installer (automatically downloads and installs Oracle JDK7 / JDK8 / JDK9). There are no actual Java files in this PPA.

Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak is no longer supported by Canonical (and thus, Launchpad and this PPA). The PPA supports Ubuntu 17.10, 17.04, 16.04, 14.04 and 12.04.

You shall now check java version by making use of the following command.
linuxhelp user # java -version
java version " 1.8.0_161"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_161-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.161-b12, mixed mode)
And then, you need to change the directory.
linuxhelp user # cd /opt/
You shall now download the package of apache maven by running the following command.
linuxhelp opt # wget http://www-eu.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.3.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz

And then you need to extract the packages by making use of the following command.
linuxhelp opt # tar -zxvf apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz
apache-maven-3.3.9/boot/plexus-classworlds-2.5.2.jar
apache-maven-3.3.9/lib/maven-embedder-3.3.9.jar
apache-maven-3.3.9/lib/maven-settings-3.3.9.jar

apache-maven-3.3.9/conf/toolchains.xml
apache-maven-3.3.9/lib/ext/
apache-maven-3.3.9/lib/ext/README.txt
You can now list out the file.
linuxhelp opt # ls
apache-maven-3.3.9 apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz
Then, you need to rename the extracted file.
linuxhelp opt # mv apache-maven-3.3.9 maven
You need to set an environment variable for Maven. Open the file.
linuxhelp opt # vim /etc/profile.d/mavenenv.sh
And add the following lines to it.
[..] #!/bin/bash MAVEN_HOME=/opt/maven PATH=$MAVEN_HOME/bin:$PATH export PATH MAVEN_HOME export CLASSPATH=. [..]
After that, you need to make the executable for environment file.
linuxhelp opt # chmod +x /etc/profile.d/mavenenv.sh
Next, you need to set the environment variables permanently.
linuxhelp opt # source /etc/profile.d/mavenenv.sh
Afterward, you need to check the maven version by making use of the following command.
linuxhelp opt # mvn -version

If you want to check the path and environment variables
linuxhelp opt # echo $MAVEN_HOME /opt/maven linuxhelp opt # echo $PATH /opt/maven/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games
With this, the tutorial comes to an end.

Very well. Thanks
Q
How do I make sure my project's dependency metadata is correct in Apache maven?
A
It is best to get it right at the time of a release to avoid having to make difficult updates later on. Your information can be submitted to the Central Maven repository using the regular Central repository upload procedure.
The following information is what is best to provide:
Project name
Project URL
License
Description of the project
Group and Artifact ID
Packaging
Version
Dependencies
