Solved I've already failed and I haven't even started (Help with Maven)

Hi,
Essentially I am trying to write just a small plugin thats only job is to make EchoPets cost some money
I am trying to use the Vault API and the EchoPetAPI along with the Bukkit thing (obviously) but on my first line of code which is simply

Code:java

public class VaultEchoPet extends JavaPlugin

IntelliJ doesn't recognize JavaPlugin, So I must be doing something wrong... I have watched a tutorial, read a few threads on bukkit and yet, I haven't figured out what I am doing wrong, here is my pom.xml if that helps

Code:

Note: I'm pretty darn sure I have Maven installed but I suck at following instructions so I could be wrong...
Regards,

I'm not very familiar with IntelliJ, but it needs the Bukkit jar to be in the local maven repository for it to be used. Try

Code:

mvn clean

in your plugin directory where the pom is located, so maven can copy the jar from the bukkit repo to your local one, then restart IntelliJ.

 

Are you sure your module is recognized as a Maven project? When you import the project or create you have to select Maven as the type of project.

 

I'm assuming that if I type mvn, and it's unrecognized that I have messed up the installation of Maven?

 

Yep

 

I have followed the steps exactly, I have all the Enviroment Variables, anything that you think is a common mistake that people have when installing maven?

So I got it working, I had to delete the other things the Path variable and then just use %M2% but there is still the question of intellJ working... I'll update when it works

Edit: I ran Maven Clear in the directory and it found the pom good and stuff but it gave me an error right away on line 11 (Generated by IntelliJ)

Code:

    <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
            xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

thats the line it errors on and here is the error

Code:

[ERROR]    Non-parseable POM C:\Users\user 1\Desktop\VaultEchoPet\pom.xml: Unre
cognised tag: 'project' (position: START_TAG seen ...apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http:/
/maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">... @11:113)  @ line 11, column 113 -> [H
elp 2]

I then proceeded to run a full stack trace and I got back well... Alot of errors.

Code:

[ERROR]    Non-parseable POM C:\Users\user 1\Desktop\VaultEchoPet\pom.xml: Unre
cognised tag: 'project' (position: START_TAG seen ...apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http:/
/maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">... @11:113)  @ line 11, column 113 -> [H
elp 2]

If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated

Acer

Edit of my Edit:
I pasted the wrong error in the second one and I used -e when I should have been using -X, the real errors are

I have, I did all that stuff, that's how the pom.xml started

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

i dont use what you use but i do know that with eclipse you have to add the craft bukkit library and if you dont i get your error try looking up how to add it

 

Actually, I got everything working, I started a new project and copied in all the repositories and dependencies and after that didn't work I ran a mvn test in IntelliJ and turns out that I didn't copy and paste the settings.xml into the .m2 folder XD I'll mark this as solved thanks for all your help!

If you don't know what he's doing, you should google Maven and use it sometime to build your jars.
