Available Plugins
Maven is - at its heart - a
plugin execution framework; all
work is done by
plugins(Every plugin has one or more
goals when we run maven we
execute goals) . Looking for a specific goal to execute? This page lists the core plugins and others. There are the build and the reporting plugins:
- Build plugins will be executed during the build and they should be configured in the element from the POM.
- Reporting plugins will be executed during the site generation and they should be configured in the element from the POM.
