How to get the jar file of a maven library?

I want to use this library in a small project. I know how to add a jar file to my project but I don't know how to work with maven. I tried the command mvn clean package in cmd but after installing maven but it just errors:

[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried to open cmd in the directory of the project but didn't help. Can anyone help me find the jar file of that library? or give me some instructions on how to work with maven?

I tried the command mvn clean package

Try executing the same command from within the project directory(e.g cd /User/you/yourFolder/mp3agic/) :

mvn clean package

Also in your project's pom.xml file, you need to include this dependency for the linked project:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.mpatric</groupId>
    <artifactId>mp3agic</artifactId>
    <version>0.9.0</version>
</dependency>

Edit: If your project is not based on maven(as mentioned in the comments below), you shall first convert the project into maven project which would create the pom.xml required and then use the above commands on the project. This would be helpful for that -IntelliJ - Convert a Java project/module into a Maven project/module.
