List of dependency jar files in Maven

Question

Using Maven 2, is there a way I can list out the jar dependencies as just the file names?

mvn dependency:build-classpath 

can list the jar

Answer 1

Here is an awk script to pipe mvn dependency:list:

mvn dependency:list | awk -f mvnfmt.awk

You can | sort if you want to sort by name, or | tr '\n' ':' to format it to a classpath.

mvnfmt.awk is:

BEGIN {
    found = 0
}

/The following files have been resolved/ {
    found = 1
    next
}

/^\[INFO\] \$/ {
    print "Empty " found
    if (found != 0) found = 0
}

{
    if (!found) next
    n = split($0, a, " ")
    if (n != 2) {
        found = 0
        next
    }
    split(a[2], a, ":")
    print a[2] "-" a[4] "." a[3]
}
