Can anyone give a good example of using org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli programmatically?

Question

I\'m trying to create an intelliJ plugin that needs to execute maven targets on the current project. All the talk in the intertubes recommends using the MavenEmbedder. Goo

Yeah, the's not much in the way of documentation of MavenCli. The API is significatly simpler but i'd still like some examples. Here's one that works...

MavenCli cli = new MavenCli();
int result = cli.doMain(new String[]{"compile"},
        "/home/aioffe/workspace/MiscMaven",
        System.out, System.out);
System.out.println("result: " + result);

It takes a dir and runs the 'compile' phase...
