dependency:tree

Full name:

org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:3.3.0:tree

Description:

Displays the dependency tree for this project. Multiple formats are supported: text (by default), but also DOT, GraphML, and TGF.

Attributes:

  • Requires a Maven project to be executed.
  • The goal is thread-safe and supports parallel builds.
  • Since version: 2.0-alpha-5.

Optional Parameters

Name Type Since Description
<appendOutput> boolean 2.2 Whether to append outputs into the output file or overwrite it.
Default value is: false.
User property is: appendOutput.
<excludes> String 2.0-alpha-6 A comma-separated list of artifacts to filter from the serialized dependency tree, or null not to filter any artifacts from the dependency tree. The filter syntax is:
[groupId]:[artifactId]:[type]:[version]
where each pattern segment is optional and supports full and partial * wildcards. An empty pattern segment is treated as an implicit wildcard.

For example, org.apache.* will match all artifacts whose group id starts with org.apache., and :::*-SNAPSHOT will match all snapshot artifacts.


User property is: excludes.
<includes> String 2.0-alpha-6 A comma-separated list of artifacts to filter the serialized dependency tree by, or null not to filter the dependency tree. The filter syntax is:
[groupId]:[artifactId]:[type]:[version]
where each pattern segment is optional and supports full and partial * wildcards. An empty pattern segment is treated as an implicit wildcard.

For example, org.apache.* will match all artifacts whose group id starts with org.apache., and :::*-SNAPSHOT will match all snapshot artifacts.


User property is: includes.
<outputEncoding> String 2.0-alpha-5 (no description)
Default value is: ${project.reporting.outputEncoding}.
User property is: outputEncoding.
<outputFile> File 2.0-alpha-5 If specified, this parameter will cause the dependency tree to be written to the path specified, instead of writing to the console.
User property is: outputFile.
<outputType> String 2.2 If specified, this parameter will cause the dependency tree to be written using the specified format. Currently supported format are: text (default), dot, graphml and tgf. These additional formats can be plotted to image files.
Default value is: text.
User property is: outputType.
<projectRepos> List 2.0-alpha-5 The project's remote repositories to use for the resolution of project dependencies.
Default value is: ${project.remoteProjectRepositories}.
<repoSession> RepositorySystemSession 2.0-alpha-5 The current repository/network configuration of Maven.
Default value is: ${repositorySystemSession}.
<repositorySystemParam> RepositorySystem 2.0-alpha-5 (no description)
Default value is: ${repositorySystem}.
<scope> String 2.0-alpha-5 The scope to filter by when resolving the dependency tree, or null to include dependencies from all scopes.
User property is: scope.
<skip> boolean 2.7 Skip plugin execution completely.
Default value is: false.
User property is: skip.
<tokens> String 2.0-alpha-6 The token set name to use when outputting the dependency tree. Possible values are whitespace, standard or extended, which use whitespace, standard (ie ASCII) or extended character sets respectively.
Default value is: standard.
User property is: tokens.
<verbose> boolean 2.0-alpha-6 Whether to include omitted nodes in the serialized dependency tree. Notice this feature actually uses Maven 2 algorithm and may give wrong results when used with Maven 3.
Default value is: false.
User property is: verbose.
