How to exclude node_modules from maven build

I use Gulp and for this reason Node.js in my project. I have a node_modules folder inside src/main/resources and every time I run mvn install it copies 9000+ Files to the target folder.
I don't want this! How can I exclude the node_modules folder?
I tried this:
<excludes>
<exclude>**/src/main/resources/node_modules/*</exclude>
</excludes>
and this
<excludes>
<exclude>node_modules/**</exclude>
</excludes>
inside configuration tag of the maven-compiler-plugin. But this doesn't work.
Does anyone have solution?

then try

i have this problem，fixed by

I suggest you a different approach that works fine for me.
move node_modules from myproject/src/main/resources to myproject: when I want to install modules locally it's more natural for me to run npm from the root folder of the project because it's my working dir, see global vs local
use in your pom this plug-in: frontend maven plugin, it works great with node and npm to let you use many javascript automation tools. It has a good documentation to make it works.
use gulp or grunt to move only the javascript resources you need in the classpath from myproject/node_modules to myproject/target/...

spring-boot-maven-plugin doesn't create fat jar

I'm using spring-boot-maven-plugin to package my REST service. I'm building the jar using mvn clean install or mvn clean package. After I decompile the jar, I don't find any of the dependencies added (I was expecting it to be a fat jar with all dependencies)
<plugin>

</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<executable>true</executable>
<finalName>myapp</finalName>
<includeSystemScope>true</includeSystemScope>
</configuration>
</plugin>
When I run the spring boot using java -jar myapp.jar -Drun.jvmArguments="-Dspring.profiles.active=qal" I'm getting ClassNotFoundException for many of the classes. It's clear that artifact didn't build as expected. However, if I start spring boot application using maven ./mvnw spring-boot:run -Drun.jvmArguments="-Dspring.profiles.active=qal" I guess, it finds all the dependencies in target folder hence works fine. How can I fix the build issue so that I can start app using java -jar command.
EDIT: It's multi-module maven project

it seems you are using a wrong command. mvn clean package is maven command, you should use command 'repackage', it used for
Repackages existing JAR and WAR archives so that they can be executed
from the command line using java -jar
as it mentioned here https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/maven-plugin/repackage-mojo.html
Or probably it's plugin configuration issue. Just checked: it works with spring-boot-maven-plugin-2.0.0.RELEASE

maven generated jaxb classes - ClassNotFoundException

I have a maven model project, where I am generating jaxb class by maven command - clean install
and the jaxb classes are generated under target folder and jar file is generating under .m2 repository folder.
Now on my other project adding this jar as a dependency with proper group id and artifactId.
But I am getting ClassNotFoundException and compile error for those generated jaxb classes.
I am updating my question to add more details.
The Pom File of Model Project.

On clean install it generates the class files under.
target
jaxbclasses
pqr
xyz
with the package name - abc.vo.apply.v1
I have another Two Maven project(jar), suppose as, A & B.
Now I can use the jaxb model project as a maven dependency, and it compile fine.
Now My Web project is not a Maven project - it is a Liferay based on Ant.
I manually copy the A, B and The Jaxb Model project in to lib folder.
It compile fines. but I am getting ClassNotFoundException.

I am adding another answer, which I think is more accurate.
In order to make your JAXB project compile, I had to add this dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jvnet.jaxb2_commons</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb2-basics</artifactId>
<version>0.6.5</version>
</dependency>
which obviously won't be automatically part of your classpath for Liferay.
When I ran mvn dependency:list, I got this:
org.jvnet.jaxb2_commons:jaxb2-basics-tools:jar:0.6.4:compile
org.jvnet.jaxb2_commons:jaxb2-basics:jar:0.6.4:compile
commons-lang:commons-lang:jar:2.2:compile
commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.1.1:compile
com.google.code.javaparser:javaparser:jar:1.0.8:compile
org.jvnet.jaxb2_commons:jaxb2-basics-runtime:jar:0.6.4:compile
commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils:jar:1.7.0:compile`
which means that you need to put these in the lib directory of your Liferay installation as well.

This is most likely due to the fact that the target directory is never included in the jar file by default. Try configuring the JAXB classes to be generated under (say) target/generated. Then, add this to the build plugin section of the POM:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.9.1</version>

Running an Executable Jar using Maven

Is it possible to run an executable jar file using Maven?
A brief introduction to setup:
Environment is running on Centos
I have included the exec plugin into my maven POM and have it running a shell script that is meant to run the jar file and works fine using the terminal but I get Unable to access jarfile error when run in maven.
I have chmod the jar, shell and other files to 777
I have editted the sudoers file as suggested by other posts
I have also given maven and Jenkins root access
All of these changes still result in the above error and I have run out of ideas.

I had this exact same need to execute a Spring Boot packaged application and solved it by using the maven dependency plugin to copy the artifact to /tmp (or anywhere for that matter) and then using the maven exec plugin to execute that jar using the exec:exec goal.

Setup Java 6 annotation processing configuration for eclipse compiler with maven

What's the best way to setup the eclipse project compiler configuration for Java 6 annotation processors?
My solution is to setup the org.eclipse.jdt.apt.core.prefs and factorypath files manually. This is a bit cumbersome:
Reference the processor jar in the factorypath file
Configure the eclipse annotation processor output directory (org.eclipse.jdt.apt.genSrcDir property in org.eclipse.jdt.apt.core.prefs)
Add the eclipse annotation processor output directory as source folder
One problem is that eclipse generated sources will be compiled with maven. Only maven clean compile is reliable as it removes the eclipse generated source files. (Eclipse and javac generated source files could be out of sync.)
Is there are better solution to configure maven without eclipse generated source files at the maven source path?

<properties>
<eclipse.generated.src>${project.build.directory}/eclipse</eclipse.generated.src>

Update: You could try using the apt-maven-plugin. It currently provides three goals:
apt-process Executes apt on project sources.
apt:test-process Executes apt on project test sources.
apt:eclipse Generates Eclipse files for apt integration.
You can configure the goals to run as part of your build as follows:
<build>
...
<plugins>
...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>apt-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-alpha-2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>process</goal>
<goal>test-process</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
...
</plugins>
...
</build>
By default the output directory is set to ${project.build.directory}/generated-sources/apt,
There is an open Jira against the compiler plugin to add APT support for Java 6, you can go and vote for it if this is something you want to to see in future versions.

I am using http://code.google.com/p/maven-annotation-plugin/ wich is simpler to configure. You can use it in two ways:
generate sources during compilation (configuration below)
generate sources "by hand" to src/main/generated and keep them on SCM

<target>1.6</target>
<encoding>${project.build.sourceEncoding}</encoding>
<!-- Disable annotation processors during normal compilation -->
<compilerArgument>-proc:none</compilerArgument>
</configuration>
</plugin>

There is a simpler solution in Eclipse Juno (I'm not sure about previous versions). In Preferences / Maven / Annotation Processing there are three modes for annotation processing. It is disabled by default, but I've tested both other options and worked like a charm for me. This way, you don't need to configure APT processing for every project or modify its pom.xml.
