As mentioned in comments System
scope is deprecated. best approach is use an artifact manager like jFrog artifactory or install your preferred dependency in your local repository {home-dir}\.m2
.
To do this you can use Maven install command:
mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file> -DgroupId=<group-id> -DartifactId=<artifact-id> -Dversion=<version> -Dpackaging=<packaging>
suppose we have a my.jar
file located in project root directory src\lib\my.jar
Then add it as regular dependency
to dependencies
of my project:
<dependency>
<groupId>a.b</groupId>
<artifactId>my</artifactId>
<version>9.0.0</version>
</dependency>
But if you want an automated way to install your jars that are located in src/lib into your local repository can utilize Maven install plugin
:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>install-external-non-maven-jar</id>
<phase>clean</phase>
<configuration>
<repositoryLayout>default</repositoryLayout>
<groupId>a.b</groupId>
<artifactId>my</artifactId>
<version>9.0.0</version>
<file>${basedir}/src/lib/my.jar</file>
<packaging>jar</packaging>
<generatePom>true</generatePom>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>install-file</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
By executing mvn clean
command, my.jar file will be installed in local repository and then by mvn package
or mvn install
command execution, your war file will be created.
