Converting an Eclipse project to Maven

I have an Eclipse project that uses many third party libs (jars). I want to convert it into a Maven project so that I can build and deploy it using the command line on a remote machine. Is there a recommended way/tool of converting the this project to maven (or any other command line based build system)? I also have an IntelliJ IDEA that I can use if required.

  1. Select your project
  2. right click select Configure
  3. select Convert to maven project.

If no dependency management tool is used then you have to add the dependencies manually in pom.xml. It will hardly take 10 -20 minutes by looking at the lib folder in your old project. Also you might need to change the folder structure of newly created project (see here the standard structure).

We had the same issue, wherein we manually deployed jars into local maven repository by the help of command 

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=ojdbc14.jar -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc14 -Dversion=10.2.0 -Dpackaging=jar

1) -Dfile is the jar you want to convert

2) -DgroupId will be the generated groupid for this jar same as artifact and version.

Hope it helps.
