Generate a pom.xml file using App Engine and Maven

I'm using Google App Engine for Eclipse and also Git.

First I've created my "helloworld" project with Eclipse and GAE plugin

Then I've created a repository that I've cloned on my Google server machine.

Only problem is my project don't have any pom.xml and I think that's making bug the whole process when I enter $ mvn appengine:run.

Is there a way to create a pom.xml file with mvn CLI? Do you think that's the only problem I have.

Here is my error log:

[ERROR] No plugin found for prefix 'appengine' in the current project and in the plugin groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mo jo] available from the repositories [local (/home/Jsmith/.m2/repository), central (https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2)] -> [He lp 1]

Help is greatly appreciated.

You can create a Maven project (including the POM) from a template called Archetype in Maven terminology:

In short, Archetype is a Maven project templating toolkit. An archetype is defined as an original pattern or model from which all other things of the same kind are made. The name fits as we are trying to provide a system that provides a consistent means of generating Maven projects.
