Include Maven Project into NON-MAVEN Dynamic Web Application

I've included the Maven based project into my application, added Deployment Assembly which shows that the .jar file gets copied to WEB-INF/lib/ImportedProject.jar.

Problem occurs when imported lib wants to reference the lib that it is using which, apparently, does not get included inside the ImportedProject.jar.

Example:

ImportedProject pom.xml has:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
        <artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
        <version>1.7.12</version>
    </dependency>

When I add ImportedProject.jar to my Non-Maven project and run it, I get exception:

threw exception [Servlet execution threw an exception] with root cause java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.slf4j.LoggerFactory

My question is: How to add both that Maven project and its dependencies?

maven dependency plugin helps to get required project library with it's dependencies.

So, If you would like to add POM based project on NON-POM based project, all you would do is to execute mvn dependency:copy-dependencies command and you will have all dependencies on target/dependencies folder. Copy all jar from dependencies and paste to WEB-INF/lib directory.
