Maven configuration for Multi Module Project

I am creating a multi-module project with Spring Boot, the project will have 3 modules: moduleA, moduleB and moduleC.

I am following this tutorial https://spring.io/guides/gs/multi-module/#scratch

in the root directory I've created the 3 directories: moduleA, moduleB and moduleC

I've run mvn -N io.takari:maven:wrapper

after I've run sudo ./mvnw and here the result:

MacBook-Pro-de-calzada:multi-module-project-example nunito$ sudo ./mvnw

There are two things :

  1. For running any maven project , the very basic and first requirement is you must have a pom.xml . Absence of this file will throw you the error :

    [ERROR] The goal you specified requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory (/Users/calzada/Development/J2EE/workspace-sts-3.8.4.RELEASE/multi-module-project-example). Please verify you invoked Maven from the correct directory. -> [Help 1]

  2. In the tutorial https://spring.io/guides/gs/multi-module/#scratch it is mentioned that you should have the pom.xml file , please refer this section ▶Maven Configuration for Multi Module Project

You need to have a pom.xml file in order to run ./mvnw clean install.

[ERROR] The goal you specified requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory (/Users/calzada/Development/J2EE/workspace-sts-3.8.4.RELEASE/multi-module-project-example).

Have a look at Maven Configuration for Multi Module Project and Maven Configuration for Library in the tutorial. There you will find the necessary pom.xml files.
