How to install Maven on Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9)

標籤：maven   mac   

Step 1: Download Maven binaries from Maven Download Page. I was using Maven 3.0.5, so I downloaded apache-maven-3.0.5-bin.tar.gz.

Step 2: You can install Maven at any location but since it’s a one time process, I didn’t wanted it in my user directory. So I installed it in /usr/local directory. You might have to use sudo command to install in /usr/local directory if you are getting permission denied error.

$ cd /usr/local$ sudo mv /Users/chang/Desktop/apache-maven-3.3.3-bin.tar.gz ./$ sudo tar -xvf apache-maven-3.3.3-bin.tar.gz

Step 3: Now open the bash profile file and add following lines into it. Usually profile file names are .bash_profile or .profile, use whichever you have in your system. If you don’t have profile file, you will have to create one with vi command.

$ cd $HOME$ vi .bash_profile#Add below lines in the profileexport M2_HOME=/usr/local/apache-maven-3.3.3export PATH=$PATH:$M2_HOME/bin#save and quit$ source .bash_profile 

That’s it, maven is installed on your latest Mac OS X and you can verify it by issuing below command.

$ mvn --versionApache Maven 3.3.3 (7994120775791599e205a5524ec3e0dfe41d4a06; 2015-04-22T19:57:37+08:00)Maven home: /usr/local/apache-maven-3.3.3Java version: 1.7.0_71, vendor: Oracle CorporationJava home: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_71.jdk/Contents/Home/jreDefault locale: zh_CN, platform encoding: UTF-8OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.10.3", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"
