Creating a Lift application using Maven
In the previous recipe, we learned how to use SBT to create and run a Lift application. Now I will show you how to set up and run a Lift application using Maven, which is another build tool.
Getting ready
If you don't have Maven installed and configured on your computer, go to http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi, download Maven 3.1.0, and follow the installation instructions.
How to do it...
We will use a Maven archetype that will create a ready-to-use Lift application for us.
- Open a cmd window and run the following command:
mvn archetype:generate ^ -DarchetypeGroupId=net.liftweb ^ -DarchetypeArtifactId=lift-archetype-basic_2.9.1 ^ -DarchetypeVersion=2.5 ^ -DarchetypeRepository=https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/releases ^ -DgroupId=lift.cookbook ^ -DartifactId=chap01-mvn ^ -Dversion=1.0
After running the previous command, Maven will start to download all the required libraries to create the project.
- Once the download is complete, Maven will ask you to confirm some information about the project. Confirm them by typing
Y
and pressing return. - Change the following tags in the
pom.xml
file:From:
<scala.version>2.9.1</scala.version>
To:
<scala.version>2.10</scala.version>
From:
<artifactId>lift-mapper_2.9.1</artifactId>
To:
<artifactId>lift-mapper_2.10</artifactId>
From:
<artifactId>lift-jquery-module_2.9.1</artifactId> <version>2.5-2.0</version>
To:
<artifactId>lift-jquery-module_2.5_2.10</artifactId> <version>2.4</version>
From:
<groupId>org.scala-tools</groupId> <artifactId>maven-scala-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.15.2</version>
To:
<groupId>net.alchim31.maven</groupId> <artifactId>scala-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.1.5</version>
From:
<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId> <version>6.1.26</version>
To:
<groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId> <artifactId>jetty-maven-plugin</artifactId>
- When you have finished editing the
pom.xml
file, open a cmd window, go to the folder containing thepom.xml
file, and run the following command to update and compile the project:mvn compile
- Once Maven finishes the compilation, you will be able to start the application by running the following command:
mvn jetty:run
- Now that you have the application up and running, you can access
http://localhost:8080
in your favorite browser, and you should see a welcome page similar to the following:
How it works...
When you create a project using the Lift archetype, you get a fully working application containing everything you need to build your own application. This means that Maven will create an application with its default directory structure, a pom.xml
file, with everything needed by the sample application. It will also include the jetty plugin that will allow us to run the application by running the jetty:run
command.
The application created by Maven is a sample application that contains Blueprint CSS and a Mapper model. One more thing to notice is that this archetype also includes plugins for IntelliJ IDEA and Scala IDE.
