[java] Maven dependency update on commandline

I have a maven project that was built on the commandline for eclipse and one of the dependencies is constantly changing. How do I update this dependency on the commandline as I have heard that it is a bad idea to mix m2e plugin and commandline. Furthermore, I tried running mvn eclipse:eclipse on the command line and it messes up the project in eclipse removing the dependencies folder.

This question is related to java eclipse maven dependencies

The answer is


mvn clean install -U

-U means force update of dependencies.

Also, if you want to import the project into eclipse, I first run:

mvn eclipse:eclipse

then run

mvn eclipse:clean

Seems to work for me, but that's just my pennies worth.


If you just want to re-load/update dependencies (I assume, with constantly changing you mean either SNAPSHOTS or local dependencies you update yourself), you can use

mvn dependency:resolve

mvn -Dschemaname=public liquibase:update

Simple run your project online i.e mvn clean install . It fetches all the latest dependencies that you mention in your pom.xml and built the project
