Thank the author for sharing!

Yesterday, I configured the MAVEN environment directly on the machine, and today I have configured the IDE environment such as Eclipse and so on.

       There are many ways to install IDE plugins. One: Online installation, through the Help-->install New software Way, enter the HTTP address to install, simple and easy to operate, but also the pros and cons, is the download speed is slow, or sometimes simply do not search for the plug-in to install. Use the first way to install, enter the HTTP address: http://m2eclipse.sonatype.org/sites/m2e, tick the option, then wait for it   download the installation, and then restart eclipse after the completion.               Second: Use the offline plug-in package. Next we use two ways to install the  eclipse-maven3-plugin.7z, one is to install the plugin via the link file, and the other is a rude but straightforward way to copy the relevant files directly into the corresponding folder.     link Mode (custom mode):    1. Create two folders at the root of your Eclipse installation: Links,mavenplugins (customizable folder name), unzip eclipse-maven3-plugin.7z After the features and plugins folders are placed under the Mavenplugins folder (this must be the case, note the folder after the decompression of the nested situation).     3. In the links directory, create a maven.link (file name customizable) file, open and enter: Path=mavenplugins folder absolute Path (Note that the folder path is "/" or "\ \"    instead of "\").     4. Restart Eclipse, after launch you open window---> Preferences will find one more option Maven, indicating that the installation was successful.     Direct Rough Way:   The unpacked subfolders features and plugins jar packages files into the features and plugins folders in the Eclipse installation directory, respectively, Then restart Eclipse to see the MAVEN options in preferences. That is, the MAVEN plugin is configured successfully.    pushRecommended: Installation of the Eclipse Plugin link file method
